Liposuction
Liposuction is the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedure. It is ideally suited to eliminate bulges of fat from different areas of the body with minimal scarring and quick recovery times. When done properly it is easily tolerated and very safe. Although the amount of weight loss is not remarkable, because the fat is taken from targeted areas, the changes in body contour can be dramatic.
Who benefits most from liposuction?
The body has certain places where it stores prefers to store ‘slow burning’ fat. This varies from individual to individual. These bulges of slow burning fat give the figure its particular shape, whether it be an ‘hourglass’ or a ‘pear’ figure. Unfortunately, if you don’t like these bulges, they can be hard to get rid of as they are ‘slow burning’ fat. Even with diet and exercise, you will probably lose weight in other areas before you lose those bulges.
Fortunately, liposuction targets these areas specifically. Once the fat producing cells in those areas are eliminated or reduced in number, the body starts storing fat in other areas. In this way, the body contour is changed.
Liposuction does not affect muscle tone or skin tone. If a person has hanging skin, she is probably a better candidate for dermatolipectomy. Many women find that certain parts or their body, such as the thighs, or hips, or abdomen are out of proportion with the rest of their body. Targeting these specific areas with liposuction, the surgeon can literally sculpt a figure that is more attractive to the patient. Liposuction is often combined with other procedures.
What is involved in the liposuction procedure?
Liposuction can be done under local anesthesia for small areas. For more extensive areas, ‘twilight’ anesthesia or general anesthesia is administered.
