The Body
Many patients are pleased to discover that Liposuction can be performed almost anywhere on the body. The most popular areas in which patients request the removal of excess fat include the abdomen, thighs, breasts, arms, and hips. Liposuction of the abdomen has long been a popular choice among patients because a flat, well-shaped abdomen significantly improves the patient's entire body shape and body image. Because the abdomen is an area of the body where fat cells tend to remain even after dieting and strenuous exercise, Liposuction might be the only way to rid yourself of those extra few pounds. The thighs are perhaps the most sought-after area to lose inches. However, Liposuction of the entire thigh in one session is not recommended, as it increases the likelihood of complications in addition to having a long and painful recovery time. Instead, Liposuction of the thighs should take place over several monthly instalments.
On the other hand, Liposuction of the hips has a very high satisfaction rate among patients. A successful procedure, especially on the hips, can greatly improve the whole body's appearance. However, it should be kept in mind that as Liposuction on the hips is performed under general anaesthesia, it carries a greater risk of complications.
Liposuction of the breasts is often performed for medical rather than aesthetic reasons. In women, overly large breasts that are disproportionate to the rest of the body can cause neck, back, and chest aches. Women who pick Liposuction over other breast-reduction procedures are perhaps choosing a safer option, because only local anaesthesia will be used. For men to get Liposuction of the breasts they must first be examined thoroughly by a surgeon, because they may have a glandular rather than a fatty problem. Should this be the case, the patient would have to undergo further examinations to determine an alternative treatment plan.
