Procedure for Liposuction
A comprehensive discussion of your medical history, aesthetic goals, and examination of the target areas is carried out. And according to your goals, the procedure is planned. Either local anesthesia, intravenous sedation, or general anesthesia is given to the patient based on the extent and nature of the procedure. The procedure starts with small incisions strategically made in the target areas to accommodate the insertion of a cannula.
A tumescent solution containing saline, local anesthetic, and adrenaline is infused into the targeted fat deposits to facilitate easier fat removal and minimize bleeding. A thin tube called a cannula is inserted through the incisions to suction out excess fat, in the treated areas. The surgeon then sculpts the remaining fat to create smooth, natural-looking contours. The incisions are closed with sutures, and compression garments are applied to minimize swelling and aid in the healing process.
Recovery and approximate cost:
Detailed instructions for postoperative care, including prescribed medications for pain management and reduction of swelling are provided by the Surgeo. The patients may experience some swelling and bruising, which typically subside within a few weeks. The surgeon will advice to limitations on strenuous activities temporarily to facilitate proper healing and reduce the risk of complications. Regular follow-up appointments will be advised to monitor progress, address concerns, and ensure optimal healing. Complete recovery varies but generally occurs within a few weeks, revealing the full benefits of the liposuction procedure.
