fat removal
Lipoplasty is one of the most popular procedures performed in the UK, involving the removal of fat from the body. The technique has been perfected over the years to enable even better results, making it the best method of fat removal for localised areas of excess fat that have previously proved resistant to diet and exercise. This type of cosmetic surgery procedure is designed to enhance the shape of your body contours to make you feel more in proportion following the treatment.
Areas of the body suitable for lipoplasty treatment include the abdomen, hips, thighs and buttocks, as well as smaller areas, such as your chin or knees. The procedure can also be used to successfully reduce male chest fat - a frequent source of embarrassment among men.
what this procedure involves
Liposuction is performed under local anaesthetic with sedation or general anaesthetic, the type of which will be decided in consultation between yourself and your anaesthetist. An incision is made and fat is then removed through a fine cannula (hollow needle). The amount of fat removal depends on the size and number of areas to be treated, and in cases where significant amounts of fat are to be removed, the surgeon may recommend a two-stage procedure.
The procedure for fat removal will usually mean you can be discharged from hospital on the same day, as the advantage of these latest techniques is that patients can often recover much faster than before. Your surgeon will advise you to take a few days off work and wear a body garment to assist with the healing process for a number of weeks following the liposuction surgery.
