What is Liposuction?

Liposuction surgery aka lipoplasty, lipectomy, liposculpture, or lipo, is a popular cosmetic surgery designed for fat removal from specific body sites having diet and exercise-resistant fat pockets. It can help slim down and recontour/reshape fatty body parts, providing them with improved proportions and appearance.

A liposuction surgeon can perform liposuction on multiple body parts. The commonly targeted body areas for liposuction are:

Liposuction for thighs, arms, and stomach- It targets the removal of stubborn fat accumulated in the inner and/or outer thighs, upper arms, and belly area.
Liposuction for abdomen and back- The liposuction procedure is very efficient in recontouring the lower abdomen/back area, reducing stored fats in the flanks, and getting rid of bra fat bulges.
Liposuction for belly fat- It can help slim the belly and provide a more sculpted, aesthetic appearance.
Liposuction for face and neck- It may be recommended for eliminating double chin, jowls, and sagging neck.

Types of Liposuctions

The most employed types of liposuction are:

Traditional Liposuction- It is the first available liposuction technique that a surgeon performs under general anaesthesia.
Tumescent Liposuction- It is the most common liposuction type performed under the effect of local anaesthesia. The surgery starts with the injection of a solution containing a lidocaine (anaesthetic), a saline solution (to aid in fat removal), and a drug (to constrict blood vessels). Next, an incision is made in the area to be treated and a cannula is inserted. The cannula is manually moved back and forth to dislodge the fat cells and then vacuum suction is used to take out the broken-down fat.
VASER Liposuction- Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance (VASER) is an advanced type of ultrasound-assisted liposuction, where a specialised probe that delivers ultrasound waves is used. The ultrasonic energy passes through the skin of the targeted area to emulsify extra body fat. The melted fat is later removed from the body using vacuum suction.
Laser-Assisted Liposuction- This liposuction type utilizes a high-intensity laser beam to liquefy fat. The dislodged fat is eliminated with the help of a cannula fitted with vacuum suction.
Power-Assisted Liposuction- A small, stainless-steel tool with suction at one end (cannula) is inserted through a cut made in the targeted area. It is rapidly moved back and forth with the help of a power supply. This type of liposuction is preferred for the removal of very tough fat with more precision and less discomfort.
Microcannula Liposuction- This liposuction is much safer than traditional liposuction. The procedure is performed under the effect of local anaesthesia. Firstly, a solution to numb the area and expand the adipocytes is injected. Then, the surgeon makes a tiny incision and inserts a thin cannula for fat removal.

Ideal Candidate for Liposuction

Eligibility for liposuction is determined by the cosmetic surgeon during the initial consultation after examining the patient’s overall health and condition. One should look for the following suitability factors that indicate who is an ideal candidate for liposuction:

The presence of extra body fat or disproportionate accumulation of body fat
A desire for a slim, toned physique by permanent sculpting/contouring of specific body areas

Conditions like lipomas, gynecomastia, lymphedema, and lipodystrophy syndrome where surplus fat deposits develop in a specific area
Within 30 to 40% of healthy body weight
Realistic expectations from the surgery outcome
Commitment to a healthy lifestyle
Good general health
Firm, elastic skin
Positive attitude.

Benefits of Liposuction Surgery

Irrespective of the technique chosen for liposuction surgery, there are many advantages of liposuction.

Liposuction surgery benefits include:

Body contouring benefits- With liposuction, one’s body gets into the right shape in a short period of time. The body contouring effect appears natural and one feels and looks younger and healthier.
Health benefits- In some cases, liposuction even helps alleviate physical and emotional discomfort that comes along with extra fat deposits. It encourages patients to manage their body weight by leading a healthy lifestyle. Furthermore, the patient’s self-confidence and esteem get a boost which improves their mental wellness.

Before a Liposuction Procedure

Before liposuction surgery, the patients need to go through a detailed consultation with a proficient surgeon to check for their competency for the surgery. The surgeon evaluates the patient’s medical history, listens to their concerns and desires, takes note of their current intake of medications and supplements, and even assesses their skin health and mental fitness. When everything is in favour, the surgeon then provides pre-liposuction preparation tips.

Preparing for liposuction surgery involves:

Avoiding smoking and alcohol consumption
Making arrangements to drive home safely
Getting help for at-home care for the first few days
Adjusting certain medications and avoiding intake of blood thinners.

After a Liposuction Procedure

After liposuction surgery, sterile dressings or bandages are applied over the closed incisions. The surgeon may place drainage tubes to remove extra fluids or blood that pools at the incision site.

Some side effects to expect include slight, temporary pain, swelling, bruising, and soreness. To ease pain, painkillers are prescribed and to alleviate swelling and support the skin to adapt to new contours, the surgeon prescribes the patient to wear a compression garment.

Recovery time after liposuction varies among the patients. Usually, the healing is over and final results appear when swelling completely subsides and that may take 3 to 6 months.

To ensure a quick, smooth recovery period, the surgeon provides the following post-surgery instructions after liposuction:

Do not engage in strenuous physical activities for at least 2 weeks including heavy weight lifting and swimming

Take proper care of surgical wounds and drains, as instructed by the surgeon
Eat healthily and keep your body stress-free, well-rested, and well-hydrated
Do not miss follow-up visits to the surgeon.
