Liposuction / Fat Removal

A sensible diet and vigorous exercise doesn’t always shift stubborn areas of fat. Liposuction can help bring back confidence and a beautiful body shape. By removing fat and reducing the number of fat cells it sculpts the body into contours you thought could never be achieved.

LIPOSUCTION / FAT REMOVAL SURGERY

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure and actually achieves the best results when you are at your optimum weight. Removing stubborn pockets of fat can help clothes fit better which can lead to the appearance of weight loss. Several areas can be treated at once and liposuction is often performed alongside another procedure. For example it is common to have a tummy tuck and liposuction performed at the same time. This procedure is popular for both men and women of all ages.

 


A SIMPLE & SAFE PROCEDURE

Liposuction is performed under local or general anaesthetic. The most popular areas are the abdomen, thighs, hips, buttocks and knees. Through tiny incisions in the skin a hollow tube, or cannula is inserted and the fat is broken down with fluid before being removed by a syringe or vacuum pump.  The procedure can last approximately 30 minutes to 2 hours, depending on the technique and the extent of the surgery and how many areas are being treated.

QUICK RECOVERY

You will probably need a few days off work to recover  however this does depending on the extent of surgery more time may be needed. You will notice that after the procedure the areas that were operated on will be bruised and swollen and this can last a few weeks. It is important that a suitable support or compression garment is worn for at least a month after the procedure as this helps to reduce the swelling. You will not be able to exercise for at least a couple of weeks.
