Liposuction with the SAFE Technique: Smooth, Even Fat Removal
Liposuction helps remove stubborn fat that is difficult to remove only with diet and exercise, so that the contours of the body appear more proportional and smooth. At Ultimo Clinic liposuction clinic, the liposuction procedure uses a SAFE technique designed to help achieve a more even fat removal with a smoother looking skin surface.
Who Is It For?
- Stubborn fat that diet/exercise won’t remove
- Wanting a more defined contour
- Fat on the abdomen, waist, thighs, arms, back, or chin
- A stable weight with hard-to-shape areas
The SAFE Technique (Separation, Aspiration, Fat Equalization) separates and removes fat, then equalizes it — reducing the risk of an uneven surface and producing a smoother contour.
What to Expect
Frequently asked questions about liposuction in Jakarta
Is liposuction a weight-loss procedure?
Liposuction is a contouring procedure, not weight loss. It shapes specific areas rather than significantly changing the number on the scale.
Can the fat come back?
Removed fat cells do not return. However, remaining fat cells can enlarge with weight gain, so maintaining your weight matters for long-term results.
What is the SAFE Technique?
SAFE is a liposuction approach that separates, removes, and equalizes fat (Separation, Aspiration, Fat Equalization) for a smoother surface and a lower risk of unevenness.
What is the estimated cost of liposuction at Ultimo Clinic Jakarta?
The cost of liposuction at Ultimo Clinic varies depending on the number of body areas treated, the volume of fat taken, the techniques used (such as SAFE Liposuction or Liposculpture 360°), as well as the complexity of the procedure.
All procedures are performed directly by a plastic surgeon (Sp.BP-RE) with hospital-standard operating room facilities. The final cost will be determined transparently during a live clinical consultation session with our surgeon at Plaza ASIA, South Jakarta.
Which areas of the body can liposuction be performed on?
Liposuction procedures can be performed on various areas of the body that have stubborn fat accumulation, including:
- Abdomen (upper and lower parts) and waist / love handles (Liposculpture 360°)
- Back and folds of the bra

Why does Ultimo Clinic use the SAFE Liposuction technique?
Technique SAFE (Separation, Aspiration, and Fat Equalization) is a 3-stage method designed to:
- Separation: Gently releases fat cells without damaging surrounding nerve tissue or blood vessels.
- Aspiration: Vacuum the fat in a measured manner to minimize bleeding and bruising.
- Fat Equalization: Flatten the remaining thin layer of fat under the skin to prevent the surface of the skin bumpy (lumpy) or asymmetrical.
How long is the recovery period after liposuction surgery?
The majority of patients can return to light activities or work from the office in time 3 to 7 days postoperative period. The patient is recommended to wear a medical compression corset (compression garment) for 4-6 weeks to stabilize the skin contour and accelerate the shrinkage of swelling (swelling). Optimal body contouring results are usually seen after 1 to 3 months.
Are liposuction results permanent?
Yeah. Fat cells that have been removed through the liposuction procedure will not grow back in the area. However, to maintain ideal and proportional body contours, patients are advised to maintain a nutritionally balanced diet and an active lifestyle.
