Liposuction
Liposuction
Liposuction is a procedure that sculpts the body by removing unwanted deposits of fat from parts of the body with relatively little scarring.
Liposuction is not a method for weight loss but rather a tool to assist with removal of stubborn areas of fat.
Liposculpture is a surgical procedure that is used to give you more muscle tone and shapeliness. It treats little pockets of fat, unlike liposuction which covers larger areas.
Instead of just removing fat, liposculpture also moves it around it for a desired shape. It can be particularly useful in areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise.
Why it’s done
Liposuction can be used to treat some medical conditions.
It is mainly used to improve appearance, rather than providing any physical health benefits.
Liposuction is normally advised only if lifestyle changes have not achieved the desired results. It can treat areas of fat that are resistant to exercise and diet.
Individuals most suitable for liposuction are otherwise fit and healthy people with good quality, elastic skin and lose fat deposits in areas such as the hips, buttocks, abdomen, thighs, knees and upper arm which are resistant to diet, exercise and weight loss.
