In the modern age, image is vital. There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of weight loss methods in existence but, for some people, surgery remains the only real option. Through the process of liposuction, fatty tissue is physically removed from a particular area of the body. This can be useful in patients whose weight remains stable but who are blighted with areas of fat which do not disappear in spite of exercise or changes to their diet. The procedure is straightforward and completely safe, as we’ll show.
The surgical procedure of liposuction, as with most surgical procedures, begins with a form of anesthetic. Depending on the type of liposuction and the area of the body it’s being performed on, you will either undergo a local anesthetic – a numbing of the area being operated on – or a general anesthetic whereby you will be rendered unconscious while the procedure is carried out. Both types of anesthetic are completely pain free and you won’t have anything other than a slight numbness following the operation.
If you’ve had a general anesthetic, you’ll start to feel sleepy. If you only had a local anesthetic you’ll feel numb in the area where you’ve had the anesthetic. Sometimes the surgeon will need to inject some fluids before making the miniature incisions in the skin around the fatty area. The incisions tend to be less than a third of an inch in size, so you won’t have any scars or unsightly marks to bear following the operation. The healing process is very fast, too, and you’ll be amazed at the results.
The liposuction procedure will often remove blood and other bodily fluids so you’ll be hooked up to an intravenous drip before the procedure begins. The surgeon inserts a small, thin vacuum tube (cannula) through the incision and into the deep fat layer before he begins to manipulate the fat layer, breaking it up into small particles. He will then use the vacuum tube to remove the fat along with any other particles or fluids around the area. An extra syringe may be required to remove all of the cells.
Following the removal of the fatty cells, most surgeons will use stitches to close the incisions. Don’t be alarmed if they don’t, though. Some doctors prefer to leave the incisions open as the fluid can drain more easily and bruising and swelling will be reduced. You won’t have any problems as the incisions are tiny. The whole process is painless and very quick and easy and you’re very unlikely to experience any issues. Enjoy your new body!
