Liposuction - Remove the Excess Fat and Get the Perfect Figure


Even those who commit to eating well and exercising can find that genetic factors can negate their efforts as age and hormones cause deposits to grow and sag. At this point, cosmetic procedures can be an appealing option. Liposuction can give a perfect shape to the abdomen, the waist area and also to the hips, neck, arms, thighs and back. Here are some details about the various ways the procedure can improve specific areas of the body.

Legs

Inner thigh liposuction can reduce the rubbing together of the inner thighs and improve the silhouette of the legs. For women who are bothered by their knee, this will usually be treated at the same time. The best results will be experienced by those who have good skin elasticity. Otherwise, a thigh lift might be needed to accompany the procedure to remove extra skin. Liposuction alone will not improve rippling in the skin.

Buttocks

Because too much liposuction will result in sagging skin, a conservative approach should be taken and no more then 40 percent of flab in the buttocks should be removed. The procedure cannot be expected to lift or elevate the buttocks, although sometimes that can be a positive side effect once the natural elasticity of the skin is regained. Often it is best for this surgery to be performed under local anesthesia with the patient remaining awake but sedated so she can lie comfortably on her stomach providing the surgeon best access to the surgical site.

Face

Liposuction is performed to the chin, cheeks, neck and jowls to remove deposits that are usually the result of genetics and completely resistant to diet and exercise. These deposits can make a person appear chubby, older and less athletic. When combined with laser resurfacing or a chemical peel, the results can be as dramatic as a facelift.

Arms

This procedure is almost exclusively performed on women who, as they age, find it more difficult to maintain a toned upper body. Loose some skin in the triceps along with fat pads in front of and behind the arm pit can cause insecurity when wearing sleeveless shirts or evening attire. A patient considering this procedure must have realistic expectations as excessive removal of flab from this area can result in an unappealingly lumpy look which can become even worse with weight gain.

Of course, under all circumstances always consult with your doctor about what method best meets your goals, body type and medical history.
