Liposuction
If you have an area of your body where fat accumulates disproportionately and find that a balanced diet and rigorous exercise aren’t enough to sculpt your figure, liposuction may help you achieve the trim appearance you’ve always envisioned.
Liposuction (also called liposculpture or lipoplasty) is a popular cosmetic surgery procedure for women and men who are at or near their ideal body weight but wish to refine their shape to ideal proportions. Through liposuction, you can enhance your natural beauty and improve your body’s unique symmetry. This procedure can also boost your confidence, especially after maintaining your fitness and good health.
Liposuction can be performed on many parts of the body, including the buttocks, thighs, legs, arms, back, hips, and abdomen. It can also be used on the neck and around the face to enhance facial contours. This technique can help you achieve a fit, better-proportioned appearance.
Fit, healthy women and men choose liposuction for many reasons, including:
- To correct disproportionate body fat distribution
- To remove stubborn fat deposits
- To regain a youthful appearance
- So clothes fit properly and comfortably
- To improve self-esteem and confidence
During your consultation, your plastic surgeon will discuss your concerns and explain the details of liposuction cosmetic surgery. You can consider various options, including combining liposuction with other body procedures.

Frequently Asked Questions about Liposuction
Who is a good candidate for liposuction?
Ideal candidates for liposuction are individuals who are at or near their ideal body weight but have localized areas of stubborn fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. Good candidates should also have realistic expectations about the outcomes of the procedure.
How is liposuction performed?
During the procedure, the surgeon makes small incisions in the targeted area and inserts a thin tube (cannula) to suction out excess fat. The technique may vary depending on the specific area being treated and the amount of fat being removed.
What results can I expect from liposuction?
Liposuction can lead to improved body contours and a more proportionate appearance by reducing localized fat deposits. Results are typically noticeable once swelling subsides, with final results becoming more apparent over several months as the body adjusts.
