Liposuction surgery is a type of cosmetic procedure used to remove excess fat from certain areas of the body. It can be used to reduce the appearance of cellulite, love handles, saddlebags, and other stubborn pockets of fat. This procedure is typically done in an outpatient setting with local or general anesthesia.
The Process of Liposuction Surgery
First, your doctor will make small incisions near the area being treated. Then a thin tube called a cannula is inserted through these incisions and moved back and forth to break up the fat cells. After this process, suction is applied to remove the broken-up fat cells from the body. Depending on how much fat needs to be removed, liposuction surgery can take anywhere from one hour to several hours or more.
Benefits of Liposuction Surgery
The primary benefit of liposuction surgery is that it can help you achieve more contoured curves in your desired areas without having to lose weight overall or exercise excessively for months on end. It also helps reduce cellulite and improve skin texture in some cases by removing underlying layers of stubborn fat that cause dimpling or sagging skin in certain areas such as thighs and buttocks. Additionally, it can help improve self-confidence by helping you feel better about your body shape and size after treatment has been completed successfully.
