Liposuction Surgery

Liposuction is a procedure that removes excess body fat that patients cannot get rid of through diet and exercise. During the procedure, the specialists use a thin tube called a cannula, connected to a vacuum. The vacuum pump sucks out the fat from the body. On the other hand, a laser-assisted liposuction which is a latest technique, uses a laser to produce a burst of energy to liquefy the fat. Since the skin around area of operation becomes saggy post-surgery, patients are required to wear compression garment for at least a period of 1-2 months. An experienced plastic or dermatologic surgeon perform the procedure. Overall recovery post-treatment post-surgery is somewhat quick and patients can return to their normal routine within 3-10 days.
