Liposuction surgery :
Liposuction or fat removal surgery is a surgical procedure intended to remove excess
fat deposits from different areas of the body and reshape
it. Using one or two puncture points of 3 to 10 millimetres
max (thus no real scars) fat is removed from under the skin
with the use of a vacuum-suction canula ,which is a hollow
pen –like instrument or tube used to draw off fluids.
When liposuction procedure is performed, the fat cells never
regenerate so the minimal fat that remains after this procedure
will maintain its mass at that level forever. The results
therefore are definite and permanent.
Liposuction surgery may be performed on the abdomen, hips,
thighs, calves, arms, buttocks, back, neck or face. It can
also include more than one area, for instance, the abdomen,
back and thighs on the same day.
Liposuction or fat removal surgery is not used to treat cellulite, whose origin remains
unidentified; it is rather a separate case from excess fat
although it is associated with the same area sometimes.
It is pointed precisely at the fat deposit areas without decreasing
the skin. Although liposuction is a procedure for reshaping
the body and is not recommended for weight loss, it is often
taken as a first step to maintain a slim figure.
Liposuction results :
The results of liposuction vary according to the age of the patient. It is
often more visible with a young and more flexible skin.
