How Liposuction is Done?
Liposuction is done on
outpatient basis in the accredited clinics. To treat a small area
with liposuction, local anesthesia or local anesthesia with
Intravenous Sedation is used so that patients are relaxed during the
procedure. When large area is to be treated then general anesthesia
has to be used. Depending on the liposuction method chosen, the type
of anesthesia is used. In case liposuction is combined with some
other procedure (the most common one is tummy tuck or arm lift) then
general anesthesia is recommended.
The process of liposuction surgery
will vary depending on the area where it is getting performed and the
type chosen. In case of traditional liposuction, a saline solution is
injected into the area of treatment so it becomes easy to remove the
fat from the body. Then plastic surgeons make small incisions in the
area and insert a suctioning tube (cannula). The tube is inserted
below the skin surface which is used to break down the fast and then
take it out of the body.
When the fats are successfully
taken out, incisions are closed and recovery process starts. Those
who undergo liposuction in a larger area have to stay overnight.
Highly trained nurses are there to take care of patients so that they
can have safe and fast recovery. On the postoperative days, patients
can experience mild discomfort but if they follow the post-operative
instruction provided by Plastic surgeons, they will return to work
and normal activities within a week.
