Liposuction

Liposuction is the removal of excess fat (fat reduction for obesity) through fine canulas connected to a suction machine. The process involves use of specially designed canulas. It’s by far the most popular form of cosmetic surgery.

Indications:
Liposuction is done to remove localized areas of fat from any part of the body, usually from Thighs, Abdomen, Buttocks, Breast, Back, Arms, Chin, Neck etc. Liposuction contours the body and the skin shrinks in. Lyposuction is used to sculpt areas and can also suction out large amounts of fat to treat obesity (Liposculpting).

Procedure
Small incisions (1/2 cm.– 1 cm.) are made on the skin through which the fat is sucked out through different sized cannulae, thus causing  fat reduction. Liposuction may be done under local anesthesia or general anesthesia.  The area is distended with saline before the suction and it is called tumescence or superwet technique. 

Stay
Usually liposuction is an outpatient procedure, and stay in the hospital is not needed.

Complications
The main risks are swelling, bruising, bleeding, infection, scarring and numbness, surface irregularity.   

Special Complication:
If meticulous care is not taken and if excessive fat is removed patient can go into shock and fat emboli may cause risks.

Postoperative care:
The recovery takes one to two weeks. Most people are back to work within a few days. The patient must wear a compression garment after surgery to prevent skin laxity. Large volume liposuction may have beneficial effects in people with metabolic problems, and may help diabetes, obesity and hypertension. 

Abdomino Plasty / Tummytuck
When skin is removed with fat (dermolipectomy) and abdominal wall / sheath is tightened for lax abdominal wall then it is known as Abdomino Plasty / Tummytuck. This can be combined wih Liposuction.

Your plastic surgeon needs to decide whether you need Abdomino Plasty / Tummytuck or Liposuction or both.
