Diet and exercise are not always successful in shifting pockets of fat on certain genetically determined areas. We offer liposuction to NorthWest residents who want to feel more comfortable with their bodies. Liposuction is ideally suited for stubborn areas of fat which fail to shift with diet and exercise. We undertake, advanced, mechanically enhanced liposuction technique to remove unwanted fat from specified areas. Liposuction is not a substitute for weight loss using recognised and safe methods. Requests for liposuction to change ones dress size down to a smaller size are unrealistic in most cases.
The plastic surgeon makes small incisions around the area to be contoured, liposuction tube attached to a vacuum is inserted into the area, which suctions fat cells from the problem area. Consequences of liposuction include some swelling, bruising, and discomfort. However, these begin to disappear in a few days, and patients can begin to enjoy the new contours of their bodies. Complications include heamatoma (collection of blood in tissues) , infection, sensory changes, uneven surface, under and over correction of an area. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT)and pulmonary embolism (PE) are serious complications.
Though liposuction cannot promise perfection, the majority of liposuction patients are happy with their results and enjoy all the benefits of a leaner, more streamlined shape. A healthy life style following liposuction is essential to maintain the results.
There is no substitute for a full and a frank discussion about liposuction with your plastic surgeon. Your expectations about liposuction must be realistic and you will be advised about the limitations of what can be achieved. |
