What exactly happens during a Liposuction procedure?

In Liposuction, fat is sucked out from particular areas of the body. The procedure is carried out in an operation theatre and can be done under local or general anesthesia depending on the area where Liposuction is to be performed.

The common areas that can be treated with liposuction are tummy, love handles, back, buttocks, thighs, calves, chest, arms and neck. Small cuts are made in well-hidden parts of your body through which thin cannulas are inserted that are in turn connected to the suction machine. Fat is sucked through these cannulas and is collected in containers attached to the suction machine. It is a safe procedure provided you are operated by a qualified surgeon and at a good set up.
