Why have a Liposuction?

• Remove excess fat that does not reduce following exercise and diet.
  
  
• Improve body shape and self-image enabling you to wear the clothes you want.
  
  
• Correct abnormal fat deposits; under chin, neck and lower body (Lipodystrophy).

Abnormal or excess fat deposition can arise from a familial trait or simply as a result of the changes of aging. Fat deposition in the lower body and legs (Lipodystrophy) commonly has a genetic link and can prove difficult for the patient to reduce with diet and exercise. Fat deposition in the male chest (Gynaecomastia) is relatively common and rarely responds to diet and exercise.

Many patients are troubled by these fat deposits that can readily be treated by Liposuction / Liposculpture. However, this treatment should not be undertaken lightly but should be part of your program of diet and exercise to improve your body shape, fitness and tone. You should aim to reduce your weight as much as possible prior to any treatment.

Liposuction/Liposculpture involves removing by the use of suction (aspiration), fat through a metal tube (cannula). This can be performed using a simple manual technique or Power Assisted Liposuction PAL. Manual suction techniques are suited to relatively small areas whilst PAL facilitates rapid, safe and significantly less traumatic treatment for large areas.

Liposuction is commonly performed at the time of many other surgical procedures and will frequently be used in conjunction with surgery.

These include

Facelift
Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck)

Remember surgery will not change you or solve any life crises, but should boost your self-confidence and enjoyment of life.

The type of operation required to achieve the best result for you will depend on the amount of excess fat and involved areas and will be discussed at the time of your Consultation.
