Fat suctioning, or liposuction, is a surgical procedure designed to remove localized fat deposits from specific areas of the body. Common target areas include the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, and neck. The goal is to improve body contour and proportions.

The procedure involves small incisions through which a thin tube, called a cannula, is inserted. The cannula is connected to a vacuum device that suctions out fat. The surgeon carefully moves the cannula to sculpt the targeted area for a smooth and natural appearance.

Recovery from liposuction varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Patients may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which subside over time. Wearing compression garments aids in reducing swelling and supporting the healing process.

Liposuction is not a weight-loss solution but a body contouring tool. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is essential to preserve the results. Patients are encouraged to follow their surgeon’s post-operative care instructions for optimal outcomes.
