Overview

What is a Liposuction?

The Procedure

What does the procedure involve?

Removes localised areas of unwanted fat through small incisions using a fine cannula. The fat is carefully aspirated to improve body contour while preserving surrounding tissues and maintaining a smooth transition between treated areas.

Candidacy

Who is a suitable candidate?

Generally healthy patients with localised areas of excess fat that have not responded adequately to diet and exercise and who want improved body contour. Liposuction is a contouring procedure rather than a weight-loss treatment.
