Liposuction

About Liposuction

“Reshape your body, restore your confidence.”

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that removes excess fat deposits from stubborn
areas of the body using thin tubes (cannulas) connected to a suction device.
It’s not a weight-loss surgery, but it helps sculpt and refine body shape when diet and exercise
aren’t enough.

Types of Liposuction Techniques

1. Traditional Liposuction

  •  Removes fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, or chin
  • Done under local or general anesthesia
  • Best for moderate contouring
  • Recovery: 1–2 weeks compression garments recommended

2. 360° Liposuction (“Lipo 360”)

  • Comprehensive 360-degree sculpting around the entire torso
  •  Includes abdomen, flanks (love handles), lower back, and bra roll
  • Creates a smooth, balanced, hourglass silhouette

    Popular with patients wanting full waistline transformation

3. High-Definition (HD) Liposuction

  • Advanced technique to enhance muscle definition (abs, arms, chest)
  • Uses Vaser (ultrasound), laser, or power-assisted devices to remove deep
    and superficial fat
  • Creates a sculpted, athletic look

     Ideal for people with good skin tone and fitness goals
    Great for “six-pack” look, V-lines, or toned arms/chest

4. Lipedema Liposuction (for medical condition)

  • Lipedema is a chronic fat disorder, mostly affecting women’s legs and
    arms, causing
  • Painful fat deposits
  • Easy bruising
    Swelling unresponsive to diet/exercise Liposuction (specifically water-assisted or tumescent technique) is used to:
  • Reduce pain, heaviness, and size of limbs
  • Prevent progression to lymphedema
  • Improve mobility, confidence, and quality of life

    Often considered medically necessary, especially in advanced stages

Common Areas Treated with Liposuction

  • Abdomen & flanks
  • Thighs (inner & outer)
  •  Arms
  • Chin & neck
  • Back
  • Chest (male gynecomastia)

Important Notes:

  • Not a solution for obesity
  • Results are long-lasting if you maintain a healthy lifestyle
  • Skin retraction depends on skin elasticity — some cases may need tummy
    tuck or lift

Recovery Timeline

  • Swelling & bruising: 1–2 weeks
  • Compression garments: 4–6 weeks
  • Light activity: after 2–3 days
  • Final results: visible in 3–6 months

Final Word:

Whether it’s for aesthetic enhancement (like Lipo 360 or HD) or medical relief (like lipedema), liposuction can dramatically improve comfort, confidence, and quality of life. Always consult a board-certified plastic surgeon to see which approach is best for your body and goals.
