Liposuction is a procedure that helps reduce the amount of body fat in your body.  The benefits of a properly performed and successful liposuction procedure are obvious on several counts, such as the improvement in physical appearance and the internal psychological benefit of restored self-esteem.  As with any surgical procedure, there are always risks involved.  It is for this very reason we advise you to consult with a professional Cosmetic Surgeon to discuss your unique situation.  A surgeon can discuss how you can benefit from a suction-assisted lipectomy procedure and reduce any risk factors.

A liposuction procedure involves removing fat deposits that are resistant to exercise by means of a tube and vacuum device.  There are several methods by which the fat is removed.  The most avuncular common procedure is the tumescent technique, which reduces the risk factor and cost because it requires no anesthesia.  Another advantage with the tumescent method is that trauma and blood loss is reduced significantly.  Another method includes ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty, which is used to remove larger amounts of fat from the body.

The procedure takes an average of 1 – 2 hours or more.  While anesthesia is not always necessary, as when the tumescent procedure is used, other times it may require either a local, epidural, or general anesthesia.  The procedure is generally performed on an outpatient basis, however on occasion a short inpatient stay may be required.  Recovery time typically involves 1 – 2 weeks to return to work.  Full recovery for more strenuous activity takes 2 – 4 weeks.  The complete recovery from swelling and bruising will be somewhat longer.
