Liposuction

Liposuction is the process of breaking down excess fat in the body and removing it with the help of a vacuum system.

This can be used on areas with high level of fat tissue such as legs, abdomen, waist, arms, back, hips and buttocks.

How long will the surgery take?

Liposuction takes 1 to 3 hours.

How is liposuction performed?

In areas with high fat content, small incisions are formed and tubes are placed.

The fats extracted with vacuum break down inside the body.

Where the areas are small, it is applied with local anaesthetic. For large areas, however, anaesthesia is achieved with both local anaesthetics and medicines administered through the vein.

What is the treatment period?

After the surgery, the patient has to stay overnight in the hospital.

The patient is provided with a special corset following the operation, which makes moving easier and reduces oedema.

Bruising, swelling and numbness are temporary in the area where the fat is removed. After the second week, oedema is dissipated and weight loss begins. The results will start to show in five to six weeks.

What are the benefits of liposuction?

  • This procedure is used for localized adiposity where fat deposits in specific parts of the body, and helps to create a more natural-looking fat distribution throughout the body.
  • Permanent fat cell loss, meaning that even if you gain weight, the fat that was removed will not return.
  • A tighter, more natural, proportional look.
  • Immediate results
  • Treatment for gynecomastia, meaning removing breast tissue in male patients by using liposuction.
