Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that involves the removal of excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, or hips. The procedure is performed by inserting a thin tube (cannula) through small incisions in the skin, which is then used to suction out the fat cells.

Liposuction can help reshape and contour the body, providing a more toned appearance, and is often used to treat areas resistant to diet and exercise.
