Liposuction
Liposuction is a procedure for you if you have excess subcutaneous fat, which is resistant to diet and exercise, or if you wish to change the contours of your body. Commonly areas are under the chin, upper arms, male chest, abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, inner knees, calves, and ankles.
Liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy diet and exercise and most patients are near normal weight. Liposuction is done on an |
outpatient basis under anesthesia. The patient will go home with a compression garment covering the treated areas. Compression is advised for 2 - 4 weeks after surgery as it helps reduce swelling. Initial discomfort is easily controlled with oral medication and bruising and swelling usually subside in 2-4 weeks. The final result takes shape over 2-3 months.
