Eating a healthy diet and undertaking regular exercise is an excellent way to maintain a healthy lifestyle and promote weight loss. Some people may find they have stubborn areas of fat that will not shift even with regular exercise and eating healthily. Liposuction is an excellent body contouring procedure which can help both women and men contour and shape their bodies to help them achieve the look they desire. As with any body contouring procedure, liposuction is not considered a treatment for weight loss; patients should be at their ideal body weight before undertaking treatment.
At Centre for Surgery, our expert liposuction surgeons offer a full range of treatment options for patients unhappy with their body shape. Liposuction is designed to remove areas of excess body fat in a minimally invasive manner. Liposuction recovery is very straightforward, with minimal bruising and swelling, and patients can expect to see final liposuction results after three months. Our post-operative nursing team will review you regularly to ensure you are healing well after liposuction. Your surgeon will review you after six weeks, where practical advice will be given on maintaining your liposuction results.

Liposuction treatment is designed to remove areas of fat that cannot be removed with diet and exercise alone. Below are listed the most common liposuction areas patients commonly request to have treated when they have a liposuction consultation at Centre for Surgery.
Stomach liposuction
Tummy lipo is one of the most commonly requested areas for both women and men to be treated. As we naturally age, our metabolism begins to slow down, which often leads to excessive fat accumulation in the stomach. Eating a good diet and exercising regularly may not be enough to shift tummy fat alone. Patients with minimal skin laxity and good skin quality may be good candidates for abdominal Lipo alone. Some patients may have excess skin, which may appear loose and wrinkly, as commonly occurs after pregnancy and childbirth. In these cases, liposuction may be combined with a tummy tuck to get the best results. A Brazilian tummy tuck combines liposuction with a tummy tuck surgery to sculpt, define and contour the abdomen.
Arm liposuction
Many people are often concerned about the excessively bulky appearance of their upper arms, which often prevents them from wearing items of clothing that reveal their arms. Many women may avoid certain arm exercises to avoid their arms becoming too muscular. Arm liposuction is a highly effective treatment designed to create a thinner-looking and slimmer arm, which helps people restore their self-confidence and have more choices when it comes to wearing revealing clothing. High-definition liposuction is an excellent treatment option for patients looking for a more muscular and defined appearance to the arm.
Inner thigh liposuction
Inner thigh fat or excessive thigh fullness can create an aesthetically unappealing appearance. In some cases, patients may even experience discomfort from the excessive rubbing of the inner thighs, even when walking. Liposuction to the inner thigh reduces inner thigh fat and can effectively relieve symptoms resulting from the inner thighs rubbing together. Some patients may be suitable for 360 liposuction of the thighs, which addresses multiple areas, including the inner and outer size, knees and the back of your thighs, for comprehensive sculpting and reshaping. For patients with excessive loose skin affecting the inner thigh, then inner thigh lipo may need to be combined with a thigh lift for best results.

Liposuction for love handles
The love handles describe the region located on the sides of the abdomen and between the hip bone and the lower parts of the ribs. Many patients develop excessive fat in this area and can look very unsightly. Certain types of clothing may be avoided due to having prominent love handles. Liposuction is the best treatment for eliminating stubborn fat and getting rid of love handles completely. Ideal results are achieved when patients are at or near their ideal body weight and are looking to target excess fat in their love handles.
