What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is the surgical removal of body fat and is also called lipoplasty, body shaping, and body contouring,

Liposuction can remove excess fat tissue on many body areas. Liposuction surgery removes excess deposits of fat to sculpt an improved shape to a patient’s body.

If the patient does not lead a healthy lifestyle after the operation, there is a risk that the remaining fat cells will grow bigger.

Liposuction can help you to be more confident, reverse the signs of aging, achieve a fat loss goal, or fit into clothing better.

When you gain weight, body fat cells increase in size and volume. In turn, liposuction reduces the number of body fat cells in a specific area.

It is primarily done for Cosmetic Purposes, but also treats other conditions such as Gynaecomastia, Lymphedema, Lipomas and Extreme weight loss after obesity

Liposuction slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits and improving body contours.

Ideally, liposuction is best suited for adults who are within 30% of their ideal weight; who have firm, elastic skin, and good muscle tone. They should be clear about their expectations from the surgery

Common Areas for Liposuction :

* Thighs

* Arms

* Hips

* Buttocks

* Face

* Abdomen

* Flanks

* Back

* Neck

* Chest

Ideal Candidate for Liposuction :

* Body shape alteration

* Increase their self-confidence.

* Treats gynaecomastia (male breast enlargement)

* Improve their body contour

* Shift stubborn body fat

Liposuction is very effective in getting rid of stubborn excess fat that won’t go away with other weight-reducing methods such as dieting or exercising. It sculpts body tissues and helps in achieving a toned and smoothened look. Though it does not treat any disorder, it is still a great way for both and men to achieve a lean and slimmer body.

Remember: Liposuction is not an absolute clinical treatment and has its limitations. It does not tighten the skin or loosens up hanging fat, nor does it remove stretch marks or any scars from the body. Liposuction does not remove cellulite pushing out against the skin, but only reduces its effect. Liposuction is no substitute for exercise

Expect some pain, swelling and bruising after the procedure. Your surgeon may give you medicines to help control the pain and to lower the risk of infection.

After the procedure, the surgeon may leave your incisions open or put in temporary drains to help fluid drain out of your body. Most people need to wear tight garments after surgery to help reduce swelling. These garments are also called compression garments and are worn for a few weeks.

You may need to wait a few days before going back to work. It may take a few weeks before you can start your usual activities, including exercise.

During this time, expect some differences in shape as the remaining fat settles into position. It will take weeks to months for the swelling to go down and to see the final results.

After liposuction, swelling typically goes away within a few weeks. By this time, the treated area should look less bulky. Within several months, expect the treated area to look slimmer.

Skin loses some firmness as people age, but liposuction results usually last a long time if you maintain your weight. If you gain weight after liposuction, your fat levels may change. For example, you may gain fat around your abdomen no matter what areas were originally treated.
