    A Quick Guide To Liposuction Surgery

    Liposuction surgery is the regimen of expelling fat with the use of a suction device from certain areas of the body such as the face, chin, neck, upper arms, abdomen, buttocks, hips, waist, thighs, and legs. This process is done not to alleviate weight but to eradicate unwanted deposits of fat from body areas that does not react well to regular programs of diet and exercise.

    Before the Surgery

    First, the surgeon will have to determine your state of health and then identify the areas of fat to be treated. The surgeon will also have to look at your skin type or tone.

    In addition, the surgeon should thoroughly discuss with you the regimen of liposuction surgery including the dangers involved and other choices or ways of fat elimination that may work for you as well.

    Be certainly to relate to your surgeon any questions or worries you might have. Be honest about your goals and expectations. Inform your surgeon of any significant detail that may influence the regimen such as any medications that you're taking. Your surgeon will instruct you on what you should or should not do before the liposuction surgery including what food, drink and medications are harmless to take.

    During the Surgery

    Liposuction surgery starts with the surgeon cutting a minute opening on the area to be treated where the cannula would be inserted. The cannula is a thin and hollow flexible tube that connected to the suction device. The surgeon uses this instrument to go under the layers of fat, break them down and suction them out of the body.

    Usually, liposuction surgery is performed under local anesthesia to numb the area. The surgeon may also give you some sedatives to aid you stay calm during the operation. General anesthesia is given to patients during an extensive liposuction surgery. Necessary transfusions are done to substitute the body fluid and blood that are lost together with the suctioned fat.

    Liposuction surgery may last from half an hour to various hours depending on reasons such as the area of the body to be treated and the amount of fat that to be removed.
    Liposuction surgery is performed in a hospital, surgeon's office or an outpatient surgery facility. Unless the liposuction surgery is extensive, you do not have to stay at the hospital after the surgery.

    After the Surgery

    You will experience soreness, swelling and bruising after the liposuction surgery. The treated area may also feel numb. These are all common occurrences and would be gone in a few days.

    Usually, you would be asked to wear tight elastic garments for various weeks to provide compression to the area and alleviate swelling. You may also have to take antibiotics as prescribed by your surgeon.

    You may able to return to work in as short as 2 days or as much as a couple of weeks. Your surgeon will closely monitor your recovery and advise you when you may be able to resume other common activities.
