Procedure: Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes unwanted fat deposits from specific areas of the body through suction. The number of areas treated may vary, with options for targeting one, two, or three areas.
Recovery Time:The recovery period varies depending on the extent of liposuction and the areas worked on. Generally, patients need 1-2 weeks of rest and should avoid strenuous activities for 4-6 weeks.
Pre-operative Preparations: Pre-operative preparations may include a physical examination, medical history, and discussions about expectations. Patients may be advised to discontinue taking certain medications and avoid smoking.
Eligibility: Suitable candidates for liposuction are individuals with localized areas of excess fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. A consultation with a plastic surgeon is necessary to evaluate eligibility and determine the treatment areas.
