Liposuction is usually performed in twilight sleep at our clinic in Munich without a hospital stay. Following liposuction, you can rest and recover for a while at the clinic before being picked up. For major liposuction procedures, we recommend one night of inpatient care. Whether or not an inpatient stay is necessary depends primarily on the expected amount of liposuction: The upper limit of an outpatient liposuction is 4 liters. An inpatient stay is necessary for larger amounts. The upper limit is 6-8 liters per procedure.
