💉 How Does Liposuction Work? Step-by-Step Guide
Liposuction is a popular body contouring procedure designed to remove stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. But how does it actually work? 🧐
Here’s a breakdown of what happens during a liposuction procedure 👇
🛌 1. Anesthesia
Before the surgery begins, anesthesia is administered to ensure you're comfortable. Depending on the size of the treatment area:
🔹 Local anesthesia may be used for small areas
🔹 General anesthesia is preferred for larger zones or multiple areas
✂️ 2. Small Incisions
The surgeon creates tiny incisions in the skin. These are placed strategically and are usually only a few millimeters long — barely noticeable once healed!
💦 3. Tumescent Solution Injection
A special liquid mixture is injected into the fat tissue. This solution:
💧 Numbs the area
🔴 Minimizes bleeding by constricting blood vessels
🫙 Makes fat removal easier by loosening fat cells
🌀 4. Fat Removal with a Cannula
The surgeon uses a thin, hollow tube called a cannula to gently suction out the unwanted fat. The cannula is moved in a controlled motion to sculpt and contour the treated area.
🔄 This is the core part of the procedure and is done with precision to avoid irregularities.
🧦 5. Compression Garment
Once the fat is removed, you’ll be fitted with a compression garment:
✔️ Helps reduce swelling
✔️ Supports skin retraction
✔️ Speeds up recovery
You may need to wear it for a few weeks, depending on your surgeon’s recommendation.
🧵 6. Closure & Recovery
The tiny incisions are usually closed with dissolvable sutures or left to heal naturally. A light dressing is applied to protect the area.
Most patients are monitored for a few hours post-op and then discharged to recover comfortably at home the same day.
