Liposuction Surgery Information
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure that removes excess fat from certain areas of the body via a suctioning technique. It is commonly used to remove body fat from the thighs, hips, arms, back, buttocks, neck and face. Before surgery the doctor will take photos of the patient so that comparisons can be made before and after the surgery. A surgeon will also mark the areas of the body that will be targeted during the surgery. During the procedure a cannula, or thin tube, is inserted into an area of the body and fat in suctioned out through a vacuming device. For liposuction in Los Angeles contact Dr Granzow.
Liposuction is not considered to be a weight loss surgery, and is intended to provide shape and contour to a person’s body. In general, the procedure is designed to reduce the number of fat cells that a person has in a certain area of their body. The best candidates for this procedure are those who are close to a healthy body weight but have extra fatty deposits on their body that cannot be treated with diet and exercise alone. Brusing and swelling will occur after the procedure, and full results can be seen within a few months of the surgery. For liposuction in Fayetteville AR contact Dr Vanderpool.
