LIPOSUCTION
Liposuction removes localised, excess deposits
of fat from specific areas of the face, neck and
body (stomach, thighs, buttocks etc).
Liposuction is best suited for
individuals at or
within 30% of their ideal body weight. For
example if your ideal body weight is 60kg you
should weigh no less or no more that 78kgs.
Liposuction creates smoother contours and a
better proportioned figure.
The Procedure
Working through tiny incisions Dr. Lovric
uses a cannula or hollow surgical tube to loosen
fat and remove it through attached suction. A
solution of saline (slat and water) with added
adrenaline and possibly local anaesthetic may be
infused prior to treatment. The incisions are
small, requiring few, if any stitches. In
ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL), sound
waves liquefy the fat prior to suctioning. The
procedure is normally performed as an outpatient
procedure under local anaesthesia, with or
without sedation.
Results
Swelling subsides, bruising fades; initial
results appear in 2-4 weeks. Final results
appear in 2-6 months. Significant weight gain
can cause recurrence of fatty deposits.
Liposuction should not be used as an alternative
to healthy eating and exercise, but rather used
in conjunction as a last resort to shift those
extra kilograms that won’t budge. Liposuction
can also be used as an incentive to motivate the
patient to follow a healthy lifestyle.
