1. What does it involve? Body sculpting through removal of fat from localized areas of the body. Techniques include ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL); power-assisted lipoplasty (PAL), superwet and tumescent techniques.
2. How much time is taken? Varies according to number of sites, technique, amount of fat to be removed and type of anaesthesia.
3. Does it need Anaesthesia ? Local, local with intravenous sedation, regional (eg., an epidural block) or general
4. How much is recovery time? Rest at home for 7-10 days. Exersice & workout after 8-10 weeks.
5. What are risks involved? Temprory nerve damage, adverse reaction to the anaesthetic and epinephrine used in tumescence, numbness, asymmetry, contour irregularities or dimpling, pigmentation changes, sagging skin, irregular scar formation and complications related to anaesthesia in some rare cases
6. How long the results last? Noticeable improvement in the first few days through four weeks, but continued improvement for six months post-surgery as swelling decreases. Results must be maintained with proper diet and exercise.
7. What else I need to know? Liposuction can be a good adjunct to healthy living but not be seen as a weight reduction tool.


Liposuction is the surgical removal of fat cells through a stainless steel suction tube called a cannula. Liposuction was first performed in 1974 and was a tremendous improvement over previous surgical body contouring techniques.

Liposuction is not appropriate for people with a weakened immune system, diabetes, heart or artery problems, or a history of blood clots or restricted blood flow. You are a good candidate for liposuction if you are of normal weight; have healthy, elastic skin; and have specific “trouble areas” such as the tummy, of normal weight; have healthy, elastic skin; and have specific “trouble areas” such as the tummy, thighs, and butt that will not respond to changes in diet and exercise.

Although liposuction does remove a number of existing fat cells, it does not guarantee that you won’t regain some fat.
