Liposuction

Liposuction or lipoplasty  is a body-sculpting and contouring procedure to remove fat that is unresponsive to dieting and exercising. Liposuction is a fairly popular procedure in both men and women. The liposuction plastic surgery  procedure can be applied to nearly any area of the body and is commonly used on multiple areas during an operation. Liposuction results in a slimmer and much more proportionate figure. Liposuction is used effectively to reduce love handles, saddlebags, a double-chin, a bulge around the waistline, or other unsightly fatty deposits in order to develop a better shape and create a more beautiful body.

Reasons for Liposuction Surgery -

-Eliminate fat from any of the following areas:
-Chin and Neckline
-Back
-Upper Arms
-Stomach and Waistline
-Hips and Buttocks
-Thighs and Knees
-Calves and Ankles

Liposuction is not a replacement for laziness, no exercise and poor diet. Instead, liposuction is a reduction procedure for stubborn areas where fat accumulates. Used in combination with several areas of the body, liposuction can provide a well proportioned body appearance, also referred to as “liposculpting”. Ideal surgical candidates are those already in good physical condition but having stubborn areas that do not respond to diet and exercise.

Liposuction Procedure

Liposuction can be completed under general anesthesia with the patient asleep or under local anesthesia where the area is numbed and the patient remains awake. Through a tiny incision, a narrow tube or “cannula” is inserted and used to vacuum out the fatty tissue beneath the skin. The plastic surgeon determines the amount of fat to be removed by massaging the skin and squeezing the tissue. After eliminating the excess fat, the incisions are closed by applying a compression dressing or bandage to the area in order to prevent bleeding, reduce swelling, and support the affected area.

There are several different types of liposuction procedures, such as tumescent or ultrasound liposuction, that have developed as a result of recent advancements in new technologies. Together the patient and the surgeon can discuss which method(s) are best during the initial consultation visit. Liposuction procedures can last anywhere from thirty minutes to several hours depending upon the amount of fat to be removed.

Liposuction surgery is an excellent procedure that can benefit those who want to remove unattractive fatty deposits throughout there body.

Liposuction Recovery -

New techniques allow for faster recovery from liposuction procedures. The length of the recovery will depend on how extensive of an operation the patient undergoes. Generally, post-operative instructions call for rest and limited movement in order to speed up the healing process and reduce the recovery time. A support garment may need to be worn for several weeks after the surgery, depending upon which area(s) are selected to utilize the liposuction procedure. Patients sometimes report minor pain associated with surgery which can be treated effectively with oral medication. While complications are rare, patients can minimize the risk for potential problems by carefully following the directions given after surgery.
