Liposuction
Remove stubborn fat deposits to achieve a smoother, more proportionate silhouette.
Liposuction
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body to improve contour and definition. It is not a weight-loss procedure, but rather a way to target stubborn fat that does not respond to diet and exercise.
What Liposuction Can Achieve
- Removes stubborn fat from targeted areas.
- Contours and sculpts the body for a slimmer appearance.
- Improves proportions and body definition.
- Can be combined with fat transfer procedures (e.g., BBL, breast fat grafting).
Who is a Good Candidate?
- Performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the treatment area and amount of fat removed.
- Small incisions are made to insert the cannula.
- Fat is loosened and suctioned out through the tube.
- Incisions are closed, and a compression garment is worn to minimize swelling.
- Procedure time: 1-3 hours depending on the number of areas treated.
Recovery Timeline
- Swelling and bruising for 1-2 weeks.
- Most patients return to light activities within a few days.
- Compression garments must be worn for 4-6 weeks to reduce swelling and improve results.
- Final results are visible within 3-6 months as swelling subsides.
Procedure Overview
- Performed under local or general anesthesia.
- The surgeon makes small incisions to remove excess tissue and reshape the labia.
- Incisions are closed with dissolvable sutures.
- Surgery takes about 1-2 hours.

FAQ'S
Am I a good candidate?
Great for adults at or near a stable weight with localized fat deposits that don’t respond to diet and exercise. It’s a body-contouring, not a weight-loss, procedure.
Which areas can be treated?
Common zones include abdomen, waist/flanks, hips, thighs, knees, arms, back, bra roll, and under-chin/neck. Multiple areas can often be addressed in one session.
How is it performed?
Through tiny incisions, fat is loosened and removed using tumescent (fluid-assisted) techniques; your surgeon may also use power-assisted, ultrasound-assisted, or laser-assisted devices for precision. Most cases are outpatient under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia.
What does recovery look like?
Expect swelling, bruising, and tightness for 1–2 weeks. You’ll wear a compression garment for several weeks. Many patients return to desk work in 3–5 days, light exercise in 2–3 weeks, and full workouts around 4–6 weeks, as cleared by the surgeon. Final refinement appears over 2–3 months (sometimes longer).
Are results permanent?
Removed fat cells don’t return, but weight changes can enlarge remaining cells. Results are long-lasting with stable weight, healthy habits, and good skin quality. Scars are small and discreet.
