Common areas treated with liposuction include the chin and neck, hips, abdomen, inner and outer thighs, knees, ankles, and buttocks. It can also address gynecomastia (male breast enlargement) in both teenagers and adults.
The best candidates are those with a normal or slightly above-average weight, good health, and localized fat deposits that don’t respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction is not for cellulite or loose, saggy skin. If you have good skin elasticity, the results will be even better.

Before your procedure, your doctor will meet with you to understand your goals, assess your health, and provide guidance on how to prepare for surgery.

Liposuction generally takes about 2- 4 hours, depending on the area and amount of fat being removed. A small tube may be inserted under the skin to suction out the excess fat.

VASER Liposuction is an advanced fat removal technique that uses high-frequency sound waves to precisely break down fat cells without damaging surrounding tissues. This method offers quicker recovery times and helps you achieve the beautiful shape you desire, ultimately boosting your confidence in your body and appearance.
 

VASER Liposuction is popular for several compelling reasons:
 

• Reduced Trauma: The sound waves selectively target fat cells, causing less damage to surrounding tissues. This results in less bruising, swelling, and pain compared to other techniques.
• Quick Recovery: With minimal tissue damage, patients recover faster and can return to their daily activities sooner.
• Precise Results: VASER technology allows surgeons to remove fat with precision, creating smooth and natural-looking contours.
• Collagen Stimulation: The sound waves stimulate collagen production, helping to tighten and firm the skin, resulting in a smoother and more toned appearance post-liposuction.

Results After VASER Liposuction
You will notice an immediate change in your shape following VASER Liposuction. However, the full results will become clearer as swelling decreases over the next 2-3 months. During this time, you may need to wear compression garments to help your skin adjust to your new contours. The results of VASER Liposuction are typically long-lasting if you maintain a stable weight and a healthy lifestyle.

After liposuction, you’ll notice an immediate change in your shape. The results will become more apparent as the swelling goes down over the next 2-3 months. You may need to wear compression garments to help your skin adjust to your new shape.

• Infection: Though rare, infections can occur and may require antibiotics.
• Skin discoloration: Dark spots or uneven skin tone may appear but usually fade over a few months.
• Uneven skin:  Uneven fat removal can cause lumpy or wavy skin.
• Cellulite: Existing cellulite may become more noticeable after fat removal.
• Numbness: Temporary numbness in the treated area, typically resolving within a few weeks or months.
• Blood clots: Rare but serious and potentially life-threatening.
• Adverse reaction to anesthesia: Some patients may have an adverse reaction to the anesthesia.
• Bleeding: Minor bleeding may occur during or after the procedure.

How to Reduce Risks:

• Choose an experienced surgeon: Skilled and experienced surgeons minimize the risk of complications.
• Select accredited facilities: Ensure the hospital has modern equipment and a proficient medical team for safe surgeries.
• Follow medical advice: Adhering strictly to pre- and post-surgery instructions will aid smooth recovery and minimize complications.

Liposuction is not a weight loss method but a body contouring procedure. To maintain results, combine it with a healthy diet and exercise.
If you’re considering liposuction, consult a specialist to evaluate your suitability and potential risks specific to your case.
