Liposuction is useful in the treatment of localised fat deposits that don’t respond to a good diet and exercise
It can improve body contours with minimal scarring, and is often used as part of breast reduction and abdominoplasty procedures.
The procedure involves detailed pre-operative mapping followed by injection of the treatment area with fluid. The fluid improves the ability to remove fat using a small, hollow metal tube attached to a suction device.
Compression garments are required for approximately a month after the procedure.
