Liposuction, also known as liposculpture suction, lipoplasty, lipo or lipectomy is a cosmetic procedure to break and remove the excess of fat from the body. It helps you to settle off diet and exercise resistant fat from hips, buttocks, thighs, breast, arms, back, neck, face and saddle bags. Liposuction surgery is one of the most popular and safest cosmetic procedures to get into the desired shape. It is a surgery that removes fat cells permanently to provide subtle effects. It refines and enhances body contour.
It may be performed as a single procedure or along with breast reduction, tummy tuck or facelift surgery. However, liposuction is not a weight reduction tool or an alternative to exercise and diet. It is not an obesity treatment. It won’t tighten sagging skin and won’t remove stretch marks, cellulite or dimples.
The confined fat deposits in thighs, arms, neck, abdomen or other body areas won’t go with diet and exercise. If you wish to appear slimmer and look good in fitted clothes and achieve sleeker contour and more definition in the particular body area, you need to dispose of fat deposits in areas of your body that appears disproportionate to the rest of the body.
