What is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body. It involves the use of a suction technique to extract fat from areas such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, buttocks, arms, neck, or face, helping to contour and shape these regions to achieve desired aesthetics. Liposuction is not intended as a weight-loss surgery but rather as a method to alter body proportions and address overall appearance.
Who May Benefit
Individuals with stubborn fat deposits in specific areas, that does not respond to diet and exercise.
Those wanting to address their overall body shape and contour.
Adults with good skin elasticity who can achieve optimal results.
People at a stable weight seeking to reduce excess fat.

How is the procedure performed?
Anaesthesia Administration
The procedure typically begins with the administration of anaesthesia, which can be local or general, depending on the extent of the surgery and the patient's preference.
Incision and Cannula Insertion
Small incisions are made in the target areas, and a thin tube called a cannula is inserted. This cannula is used to break up and suction out the excess fat.
Fat Removal and Closure
The surgeon carefully removes the fat through the cannula, and adjusts the area for desired contouring. Once complete, the incisions are closed, and compression garments may be applied to support healing.

What are the Risks?
Liposuction carries several risks that patients should be aware of. There is a possibility of infection at the incision sites, which may require medical treatment. Excessive bleeding or fluid accumulation in the treated areas can also occur, complicating recovery. Additionally, patients may experience irregular contours or asymmetry due to uneven fat removal.
