Liposuction
What is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a surgical cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body. Using a specialised suction technique, it targets stubborn fat that is resistant to diet and exercise, creating a more contoured and proportionate appearance.
At Clinic Consultation, our liposuction procedures are performed by experienced surgeons using advanced techniques to ensure safety, precision, and optimal results. It is a popular choice for individuals seeking a refined body silhouette.
What is Liposuction Used For?
Liposuction is primarily used to eliminate localised fat deposits and improve body contours. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, back, and neck. It is not a weight-loss solution but rather a body-shaping procedure to enhance proportions and define curves.
Additionally, liposuction can be used to address certain medical conditions, such as lipomas (fatty tumours) or excessive sweating in the underarms. At Clinic Consultation, we customise each liposuction procedure to meet the unique goals and needs of our patients.
What is the Effect of Liposuction?
The primary effect of liposuction is a more sculpted and toned appearance. By removing stubborn fat deposits, it enhances the body’s natural contours and proportions, helping patients achieve their desired aesthetic goals.
The results are often long-lasting, provided the patient maintains a stable weight through healthy lifestyle choices. At Clinic Consultation, we aim to deliver transformative yet natural-looking results, boosting confidence and self-esteem.
Does Liposuction Have Any Contraindications?
While liposuction is safe for most individuals, certain conditions may make the procedure unsuitable:
- Significant Health Issues: Conditions like heart disease, diabetes, or blood clotting disorders may increase risks.
- Pregnancy or Breastfeeding: Liposuction is not recommended during these periods.
- Unstable Weight: Patients should be near their ideal weight before the procedure.
- Poor Skin Elasticity: Loose skin may not contract well after fat removal.
- Active Infections: Any infections should be treated before surgery.
At Clinic Consultation, a thorough consultation ensures the procedure is safe and appropriate for each patient.
How is the Liposuction Procedure Performed?
Liposuction begins with a consultation to identify target areas and discuss goals. The procedure is typically performed under general or local anaesthesia, depending on the extent of the treatment.
Small incisions are made near the targeted areas, and a thin tube called a cannula is inserted to loosen and remove fat using suction. Advanced techniques, such as tumescent or laser-assisted liposuction, may be employed for enhanced precision and reduced recovery time. At Clinic Consultation, we prioritise patient comfort and ensure meticulous attention to detail.

How Long Does the Effect of Liposuction Last?
The results of liposuction are typically long-lasting, as the removed fat cells do not grow back. However, maintaining a stable weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise is essential to preserving the effects.
At Clinic Consultation, we provide post-procedure guidance to help patients sustain their results and enjoy their new contours for years to come.
