Liposuction, a minimally invasive keyhole surgery, is the most reliable method for eliminating stubborn fat deposits. By precisely targeting resistant fat, it ensures a sculpted and refined physique that may be challenging to achieve through traditional means.
Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty or body contouring, is a cosmetic surgery performed by a cosmetic or plastic surgeon. The procedure is not to be confused as a type of weight loss surgery, rather it is a surgery performed to remove fat pockets that refuse to budge.
People who are unable to lose stubborn fat even after undergoing diet and exercise, liposuction provides the best result for those cases. Stubborn fat can be located in the tummy, thighs, hips, flanks, breasts, arms, double chin, etc. Many clients who wish to get six packs, high-definition liposuction is the answer for them.
Adults with an average or slightly above-average body weight, good general health, firm skin with elasticity, good muscle tone, non-smokers, and realistic expectations from liposuction procedures are considered to be ideal candidates for liposuction.
The area from where fat is to be removed is marked and a special tumescent fluid is injected. The fat gets liquefied, which is then sucked out with a small cannula (3-5mm). Post surgery a pressure garment is given to be worn for a week.
After the liposuction procedure, the skin tends to mold itself to the new shape of the liposuction-treated areas. The resultant body shape changes are normally permanent, provided the weight of the patient remains the same and does not fluctuate much.
To achieve the perfect contour, merely removing the fat is not enough, many times we need to take out fat from one place and inject it at the required place to achieve the best result. This is called liposculpture.
Liposculpture helps in adding definition to the smaller body areas and has a quick recovery compared to liposuction, which involves the removal of larger amounts of body fat and has a slower recovery.

A liposuction treatment can effectively remove 8-10% of total body weight. For example, if your body weight is approximately 60 kg, liposuction can remove 6 liters of fat from your body.
Guidelines suggest a fat removal of not more than eleven pounds or five liters during a single liposuction session. However, this value will vary among different patients based on their weight, general health, treatment areas, and desired treatment results.
Although rare, liposuction surgery may be associated with certain complications, like:
The choice between tummy tuck and liposuction depends on the specific needs of a person. A tummy tuck involves the removal of excess skin and tightening of the muscles in the abdominal region and is recommended in cases of sagging following significant weight loss or after pregnancy. Liposuction is done for stubborn fat removal in different parts of the body and is recommended in cases of fat deposits without skin laxity.
A tummy tuck surgery is more invasive, more expensive, has more side effects, and a longer recovery time compared to a liposuction surgery. You should consult your plastic surgeon to know which procedure is best suited for your case.
The results of liposuction start showing three to six weeks after the surgery. However, the final results will be seen approximately one to three months after the surgery. The more the amount of fat removed, the longer it will take the skin to get adjusted to the new body contours, and more delayed will be the final treatment results.
Eating a healthy and nutritious diet, drinking lots of water, and following all the post-operative given by the plastic surgeon can help in quicker healing and results.
Yes, liposuction provides permanent fat loss results. The fat cells that are removed using the liposuction procedure cannot be replaced by new fat cells. However, the existing fat cells can grow and expand in size with an increase in weight.
It is, therefore, important to maintain a healthy weight by eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly to maintain the results obtained after a liposuction surgery.
