What exactly happens during a Liposuction ( Fat Removal Surgery) procedure?

Facebook Twitter

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


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.

However, most patients can expect to return to their normal activities within a few days to a week after the procedure. During the first few days after liposuction, patients typically experience some swelling, bruising, and soreness in the treated area.

Pain medication and/or anti-inflammatory drugs may be prescribed to help manage the discomfort. Patients are also typically advised to wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling and improve the contour of the treated area(s). After the first week, most patients can resume light activities and return to work, although they should continue to avoid any strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for several weeks. By the end of the first month, most patients should see significant improvement in the appearance of the treated area, although it can take upto 3 months for the final results to fully develop.
