LIPOSUCTION SURGERY

The liposuction procedure is primarily used to contour the body and remove or reshape localised fat deposits.

An alternative name used for liposuction is Liposculpture.

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure.

The most common area in which liposuction is used is the thigh and hip area. Other popular areas include abdomen (tummy), neck and knees.

The procedure is usually performed under a general anaesthetic.

Liposuction generally has few complications.

Potential complications at the site of suction include:

- Bleeding and fluid collection
- Infection
- Sensory changes
- Skin discolouration

Newer methods of liposuction include:

- Ultrasonic liposuction
- External ultrasound assisted liposuction
- Oscillating liposuction
