Liposuction, as a field in plastic surgery, has been successfully used worldwide since 30 years ago, and is growing in popularity. It is one of the most effective methods of cosmetic correction that helps create an attractive body contour by eliminating the fat layer on the target area.All liposuction procedures use hollow, stainless steel tubes with one or two suction openings, called cannulas, which vary in shape and size. They are connected to a powerful suction pump, and fat is suctioned through tiny incisions approximately 1 cm in length, which are placed in less visible areas of the body - natural skin creases and areas that are normally closed by underwear. The incisions become completely invisible after several months. Liposuction procedure can be performed in combination with abdominoplasty, upper arm lift, or thigh lift. Contrary to the well known rumour, the fat cells that are removed during liposuction do not grow back. If a patient gained weight after liposuction, new fat would be deposited equally in all areas of the body. Although considered to be a very effective method for contouring the body, liposuction cannot be considered a substitute for weight loss. The best candidates for liposuction procedure people of average weight having localized fat depositions and healthy elastic skin. For overweight people we recommend to consult a surgeon for a gastric surgery.
