It is a surgical procedure that removes subcutaneous fat deposits to achieve a more contoured body. It gets rid of unsightly fat bulges through suction (aspiration), using specially tipped cannulas introduced via tiny easily hidden incisions. After the liposculpture, the body would have a more defined and fit contour.
Advantages and Benefits
- It achieves a noticeable improvement in the body contour in the short term, which is why it is the most in-demand procedure among patients.
- It removes fat deposits that are not eliminated either with good nutrition or exercise.
- It leaves minimal scars as the incisions made are very small and fade over time until they are almost unnoticeable.
- Ostensibly improves the self-esteem of patients when they see themselves with a more defined and contoured body.
Recommendations
- Absolute rest is not mandatory.
- It is recommended to return to your normal activities as quickly as possible to the best of your abilities.
- Avoid tanning in the first three months after the surgery, as it can leave irreversible skin spots.
- Do not smoke for three months, as smoking does not favour healing.
- Wear a custom made compression garment.
- The patient must set aside time to get post-surgical lymphatic drainage massages done. The number of sessions will be indicated by the plastic surgeon.
- Swelling will remain until the third or fourth month after the procedure. From the sixth month on, you will be able to appreciate the final result.
