What is Liposuction?
Liposuction is not a weight-loss method; it reshapes areas where fat stays despite a healthy weight. A good result depends on skin quality and keeping your weight stable afterwards.
Is it right for me?
- Weight close to your ideal
- Skin with good elasticity
- Localised fat that resists diet and exercise
Procedure steps
Through incisions a few millimetres long, a numbing solution is injected and fat removed with fine cannulas. A compression garment goes on straight after surgery.
Recovery
The compression garment is worn for 4–6 weeks. Walking from day one is encouraged. The final result shows at about 3 months once swelling settles.
Risks and safety
- Uneven skin contour
- Fluid collection (seroma)
- Temporary numbness
- Blood clots (rare)
