LIPOSUCTION OVERVIEW
What is liposuction?
Liposuction is a minimally invasive body contouring procedure designed to get rid of excess fat. The procedure involves sucking out the fat using a cannula connected to negative pressure suction. Liposuction is beneficial for treating both smaller and larger body areas.
What is the difference between liposuction and liposculpture?
Liposuction involves the removal of stubborn fat, using a cannula to suck out the fat. Liposculpture is more suitable for treating smaller areas to achieve definition in people who are keen to achieve a sculpted or contoured look.
What type of fat is liposuction designed to remove?
Liposuction is designed to remove subcutaneous fat, which is the type of fat found immediately beneath the skin. As people begin to accumulate excess weight, the subcutaneous fat enlarges. When weight loss occurs, the subcutaneous fat is the first area for fat to be lost from. Liposuction is not designed to remove visceral fat which is found around the internal body organs.
Can liposuction improve my physique?
Liposuction can significantly improve your body shape and physique. Once you have reached your target weight, liposuction is suitable for sculpting your body. Lipo is useful for treating several body areas, including
- Abdomen
- Thighs
- Buttocks
- Back
- Hips
- Arms
- Breasts
Micro liposuction can be used to remove fat from beneath the chin.
What are the different types of liposuction?
The main types of liposuction include:
- Traditional liposuction is also known as SAL
- Power-assisted liposuction, or PAL
- Laser-assisted liposuction or LAL
- Ultrasound-assisted liposuction or UAL
What is tumescent liposuction?
Tumescent liposuction is a type of liposuction that involves the injection of a large amount of a solution called “tumescent fluid” into the area of the body where fat is to be removed. The solution contains a local anaesthetic (lidocaine) and a vasoconstrictor (epinephrine) which helps to minimize blood loss during the procedure and also numbs the area to reduce pain. The solution causes the fat cells to become swollen and firm, making them easier to remove with a cannula (a thin hollow tube) inserted through small incisions in the skin. Tumescent liposuction is considered to be a less invasive and less painful option than traditional liposuction.
What is Tickle Lipo?
Tickle Lipo, also known as Tickle Liposuction, is a form of liposuction that uses a device called the Tickle Lipo wand to break up and suction out unwanted fat from specific areas of the body. The wand uses a combination of vibration and suction to loosen and remove fat, resulting in less trauma to the surrounding tissue than traditional liposuction methods. Tickle Lipo is considered a minimally invasive procedure and is often used for targeted fat reduction in areas such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, and arms. It is done under local anaesthesia, and recovery time is fast.
What is Microaire liposuction?
Microaire liposuction, also known as power-assisted liposuction (PAL), is a type of liposuction that uses a specialized cannula (a thin tube) with a built-in motor to break up and suction out the fat. The cannula is inserted through small incisions in the skin, and the motor oscillates back and forth at high speeds to break up the fat. This can make the procedure faster and less traumatic than traditional liposuction and may result in less swelling and bruising. The procedure can be used to remove fat from various parts of the body, including the stomach, thighs, and hips.
During the procedure, a numbing solution is injected into the area to be treated, and the cannula is inserted through small incisions. The cannula is then moved back and forth to break up the fat, which is then suctioned out through the cannula. The procedure is usually done under local anaesthesia, but in some cases, general anaesthesia may be used. After the procedure, patients may experience swelling, bruising, and some discomfort. These side effects usually subside within a few days to a week. The procedure results are usually visible within a few weeks, and the final results may take several months to be fully visible.
Overall, Microaire liposuction is a safe and effective way of removing unwanted fat.
What is power-assisted liposuction (PAL)?
Power-assisted liposuction (PAL) is a type of liposuction that uses a specialized cannula that is attached to a motor. The cannula is inserted into the fatty area through a small incision, and the motor is used to vibrate the cannula back and forth. This vibration helps to break up the fat, making it easier to suction out.
PAL is thought to be less traumatic to the surrounding tissue, resulting in less pain, bleeding, and swelling. It also allows for more precise and efficient removal of fat, and can be used in areas that are harder to treat with traditional liposuction techniques.
PAL is typically used to remove fat from the abdomen, hips, thighs, back, and upper arms. It is considered a safe and effective method for fat removal, but as with any surgical procedure, it’s important to consult with a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon to determine if it is the right option for you and to discuss the benefits and risks.
What is SAFElipo?
Safe Lipo is a liposuction technique that aims to minimise the risks associated with traditional liposuction procedures. It is also referred to as “tumescent liposuction” and is considered safer than traditional liposuction because it uses a tumescent solution, which is a mixture of saline, lidocaine, and epinephrine, to reduce bleeding and swelling during the procedure. This technique is often used for body contouring and fat removal.
What is laser liposuction?
Laser liposuction, also known as laser lipolysis or laser-assisted liposuction, is a type of liposuction that uses a laser to melt and remove fat. The procedure involves making small incisions in the skin, through which a laser fibre is inserted and directed at the area of fat to be removed. The laser energy causes the fat cells to release their contents, which are then suctioned out of the body using a cannula (a thin hollow tube).
The heat from the laser can also cause the skin to tighten, which may result in improved skin tone and texture following the procedure. In addition to fat removal, laser liposuction can also be used for skin tightening, cellulite reduction, and improving blood circulation in the treated area.
Laser liposuction is considered to be a less invasive option than traditional liposuction, and may have less pain, swelling and bruising. However, it is important to note that it’s not a substitute for weight loss or healthy lifestyle changes.
What is Vaser liposuction?
Vaser liposuction (Vaser stands for Vibration Amplification of Sound Energy at Resonance) is a type of liposuction that uses ultrasonic energy to remove fat. It is also known as ultrasonic liposuction. The procedure involves making small incisions in the skin, through which a cannula (a thin hollow tube) equipped with a small ultrasonic probe is inserted. The ultrasonic energy is directed at the fat cells, which causes them to release their contents, which are then suctioned out of the body.
Vaser liposuction is considered to be more precise than traditional liposuction and is often used to target smaller, more delicate areas of the body, such as the face, neck, and arms. The ultrasonic energy also causes less trauma to the surrounding tissue, resulting in less pain, swelling, and bruising.
Additionally, Vaser liposuction uses a tumescent solution, which is a combination of saline, lidocaine and epinephrine, to make the fat cells firmer and easier to remove, as well as provide local anaesthesia.
It’s important to note that Vaser liposuction, like other liposuction techniques, is not a weight loss method but rather a body contouring procedure.
Can lipo make me skinny?
Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that is used to remove isolated pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is not a weight loss method and it is not intended to make a person skinny.
A person’s body shape and size are determined by a combination of factors, including genetics, lifestyle, and overall health. Liposuction can help to improve the shape and contour of specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or hips, by removing excess fat. However, it does not address overall body weight or the distribution of fat throughout the body.
It’s important to note that liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle and maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise is crucial for overall health. Additionally, liposuction can’t change the way your body distributes fat, and it’s not a solution for loose skin or stretch marks.
It’s crucial to have a realistic expectations and an understanding of the procedure and its results. It’s also important to have a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon to evaluate your candidacy for liposuction and to discuss the best options for achieving your desired results.
Can fat grow back after liposuction?
While liposuction can remove excess fat cells from the body, it is not a permanent solution for weight management. It is possible for fat to return after liposuction if the patient does not maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise.
It is also important to understand that after liposuction, the remaining fat cells may increase in size if a patient gain weight. This is known as “compensatory hypertrophy”
It’s also important to note that liposuction is not a substitute for weight loss. It is best for those who are close to their ideal weight and have a healthy lifestyle.
Can you get liposuction twice?
Yes, it is possible to get liposuction more than once. However, it is important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss method and is best suited for people who have reached a stable weight and have isolated pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise.
It is also important to note that liposuction is not a permanent solution, as fat cells can still return if a person gains weight in the future. Additionally, after a liposuction procedure, the remaining fat cells can still expand if a person gains weight.
It’s also worth noting that having multiple liposuction procedures in the same area can lead to an increased risk of complications, such as skin irregularities, contour deformities, and excessive skin loss.
It’s crucial to have realistic expectations and an understanding of the procedure and its results. It’s also important to have a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon to evaluate your candidacy for liposuction and to discuss the best options for achieving your desired results.
Will I get loose skin after liposuction?
Liposuction is a procedure that removes unwanted fat from specific areas of the body, and can help to improve the contours of the body. However, in some cases, liposuction can lead to loose skin, especially in areas where the skin has poor elasticity. Factors such as age, genetics, and overall skin health can influence the likelihood of loose skin after liposuction.
It’s important to have realistic expectations and understand that liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy diet and regular exercise. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and a stable weight after liposuction can help to prevent the development of loose skin.
How much fat can be removed with liposuction?
The amount of fat that can be safely removed during liposuction varies from person to person and is dependent on several factors, such as the individual’s body type, the location of the fat deposits, and the patient’s overall health.
Typically, liposuction removes between 2 and 5 litres of fat, although this can vary depending on the area being treated and the patient’s individual circumstances. Removing more than 5 litres of fat during a single procedure is generally considered to be unsafe, and it’s important to have realistic expectations.
It’s important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure and should not be used as a substitute for healthy lifestyle choices. The goal of liposuction is to remove stubborn pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise, not to remove a large amount of weight.
Can liposuction get rid of belly fat?
Liposuction can be an effective way to remove stubborn fat deposits and improve the contours of the stomach. It’s important to note that liposuction is not a solution for belly fat if individuals fail to maintain a healthy lifestyle after surgery. Specifically, it targets the subcutaneous fat, which is the fat layer located under the skin. If you have a large amount of visceral fat (fat around the organs) that is causing your belly to bulge, liposuction alone may not be enough to address the issue.
Can liposuction get rid of stretch marks?
Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that is used to remove isolated pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is not intended to remove stretch marks.
Stretch marks, also known as striae, are a common skin condition that occurs when the skin is stretched rapidly. They are often caused by pregnancy, weight gain or loss, and hormonal changes. They appear as lines or bands on the skin and are usually red or purple in colour, but over time they may fade to a silvery white colour.
Liposuction can help to improve the shape and contour of specific areas of the body by removing excess fat, but it cannot remove or improve stretch marks. Stretch marks are caused by damage to the underlying layers of skin, not by excess fat.
In some cases, after liposuction, the skin may appear more smooth and tight, but this will depend on the amount of fat removed and the elasticity of the skin. Therefore, it’s not guaranteed that liposuction can get rid of stretch marks.If you are concerned about stretch marks, it’s best to talk to a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss your options. There are treatments such as laser therapy, microneedling and topical creams that can help to improve the appearance of stretch marks, but it’s important to note that there is no treatment that can completely remove them.
Can liposuction affect pregnancy?
Liposuction, like any surgical procedure, carries some risks and potential complications, and it’s important to consider all factors before deciding to have the procedure. However, liposuction is not expected to affect pregnancy or future pregnancies.
Women who are considering liposuction should wait until after they have completed childbearing, as weight gain during pregnancy can cause changes to the body that may affect the results of the procedure.
It’s important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss method, and it’s not intended to prevent pregnancy or as a form of birth control. In addition, liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle, and maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise is crucial for overall health, including during pregnancy.
If you are considering liposuction and have plans for pregnancy in the future, it’s best to have a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon to discuss the best options. You should also discuss any concerns you may have with your obstetrician or gynaecologist.
Can liposuction reverse diabetes?
Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that is used to remove unwanted fat from specific areas of the body and can improve the contours of the body. It is not a treatment for diabetes, and it will not reverse diabetes.
Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder that affects the way the body processes glucose (sugar). It is caused by a deficiency of insulin, a hormone that regulates glucose levels in the blood, or by the body’s inability to use insulin effectively. Liposuction will not change these underlying metabolic issues.
While liposuction can remove excess fat, which has been linked with diabetes, it is not a substitute for a healthy diet and regular exercise, which are essential for managing diabetes. It’s always important to work with your healthcare provider to manage your diabetes and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
It’s also important to note that if you have diabetes, there may be some additional risks associated with having liposuction, such as delayed healing or an increased risk of infection. It is important to discuss with your surgeon about this before considering the procedure.
Is stomach liposuction worth it?
Whether stomach liposuction is worth it is a personal decision that depends on an individual’s specific goals, expectations, and circumstances. Liposuction can be an effective way to remove stubborn fat deposits and improve the contours of the stomach, but it is not a weight loss procedure and should not be used as a substitute for healthy lifestyle choices.
Is liposuction beneficial after weight loss?
Liposuction can be beneficial after weight loss for individuals who have reached their desired weight but still have pockets of stubborn fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction can help to contour the body and improve the appearance of certain areas, such as the thighs, hips, and abdomen.
What are the alternatives to liposuction?
There are several alternatives to liposuction for removing unwanted fat from the body. Some of the most popular include:
- Non-invasive fat reduction procedures, such as CoolSculpting or SculpSure, use controlled cooling or laser energy to freeze and destroy fat cells, which are then naturally eliminated by the body.
- Non-surgical body contouring treatments, such as Vanquish or Exilis Ultra, use radiofrequency energy to heat and shrink fat cells, causing them to be eliminated by the body.
- Diet and exercise are considered the most natural ways to reduce fat, but they may require a significant time commitment and dedication to see results.
- Medications: Orlistat, Liraglutide, and Bupropion-Naltrexone are approved for weight management.
- Bariatric surgery is a weight-loss surgery that involves reducing the size of the stomach and/or rerouting the small intestine to limit food intake and nutrient absorption.
It is important to note that these alternatives may not be as effective as liposuction for removing large amounts of fat and may not be suitable for all individuals. Additionally, it is important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional before pursuing any fat reduction treatment.
IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR LIPOSUCTION
Am I suitable for liposuction?
The best candidates for liposuction are generally:
- Healthy individuals with a stable weight and realistic expectations
- People with good skin elasticity, as the skin needs to be able to shrink and conform to the new shape of the body after the fat is removed.
- People with specific areas of fat that they would like to remove, such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, or chin.
However, it’s important to remember that liposuction is a surgical procedure and carries some risks and potential complications. It’s not suitable for everyone. People with certain medical conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes or blood clotting disorders, may not be good candidates for the procedure.
The best way to determine whether you are a good candidate for liposuction is to have a consultation with a qualified plastic surgeon. They will evaluate your overall health, skin elasticity, and areas of concern, as well as discuss your goals and expectations for the procedure. They will also explain the potential risks and benefits of the procedure and help you make an informed decision.
What is the best age for liposuction?
You will need to be a minimum of 18 years old before having a consultation at Centre for Surgery. The best age for liposuction varies for each individual, but typically it’s recommended for adults who are in good overall health and have reached a stable weight. It’s best to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine if liposuction is an appropriate option for you and to help you understand the potential benefits and risks of the procedure.
Can I have liposuction after a C-section?
It is generally recommended to wait at least six months to a year after a C-section before considering liposuction. This is because the abdominal area needs time to fully heal and settle after the surgery.
Additionally, liposuction is not recommended for women who are planning to have more children or who are currently pregnant. As pregnancy can cause changes to the body, it’s best to wait until you have reached your desired weight and are finished having children before considering liposuction.
LIPOSUCTION RECOVERY
Is liposuction recovery painful?
Recovery from liposuction can be uncomfortable, but the level of pain can vary depending on the individual and the extent of the procedure. The most common symptoms during the recovery period include swelling, bruising, and soreness in the treatment area.
Pain medication will typically be prescribed to help manage any discomfort and most people are able to return to their normal activities within a week or two after the procedure. However, it can take several weeks or even months for the swelling and bruising to fully subside and for the final results to be visible.
Your surgeon will provide you with specific post-operative instructions to follow, including information on how to care for the incision site and how to manage any pain or discomfort. Some common post-operative care instructions may include:
- Wearing a compression garment to help reduce swelling and support the treatment area
- Avoiding strenuous activity or heavy lifting for several weeks
- Keeping the incision site clean and dry
- Applying cold compresses to the treatment area to help reduce swelling
- Taking pain medication as directed
It’s important to follow your surgeon’s instructions and to contact them if you experience any unusual symptoms or concerns.
It’s also important to note that each patient’s recovery will be different and some may experience more pain or discomfort than others. It’s always best to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon before considering any surgical procedure, and to discuss about any concerns you may have about recovery.

Does lipo result in scars?
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that involves making small incisions in the skin to remove unwanted fat from specific areas of the body. As with any surgical procedure, there is the potential for scarring.
The size and location of the incisions will vary depending on the area being treated and the method of liposuction being used. The incisions are usually made in inconspicuous areas, such as the natural creases of the skin, to minimize the appearance of scars.
After the procedure, the incisions will be closed with stitches or surgical tape. The healing process can take several weeks, and during this time, it’s important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon to minimize the risk of complications such as infection or scarring.
With proper care and time, most scars will fade and become less noticeable. However, the visibility of the scar will depend on the patient’s individual healing process, the size and location of the incision, and the technique used to close the incision.
How long does it take for liposuction swelling to go away?
The length of time it takes for swelling to disappear after liposuction can vary depending on several factors, including the individual’s body type, the extent of the procedure, and the patient’s overall health. Typically, swelling will be most noticeable in the first few days following the procedure and will gradually decrease over the next several weeks.
Most people are able to return to their normal activities within a week or two after the procedure, but it can take several weeks or even months for the swelling and bruising to fully subside and for the final results to be visible.
The recovery process can be accelerated by applying cold compresses to the treatment area, wearing a compression garment, and avoiding strenuous activity or heavy lifting for several weeks. Following the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon will also help to minimize the risk of complications and promote healing.
It’s important to keep in mind that each person’s recovery will be different, and some people may experience more swelling or discomfort than others.
LIPOSUCTION RESULTS
What is the best way to reduce scarring after liposuction?
The best way to reduce scarring after liposuction is to follow the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon, which will typically include information on how to care for the incision site and how to manage any pain or discomfort. Here are a few tips on how to minimize scarring after liposuction:
- Keep the incision site clean and dry: Follow your surgeon’s instructions on how to clean and care for the incision site. Keep the incision site dry and avoid submerging it in water (e.g. swimming, bathing, etc.) for at least a week or two.
- Wear a compression garment: Wearing a compression garment as directed by your surgeon can help to reduce swelling and support the treatment area, which can help to minimize scarring.
- Avoid strenuous activity or heavy lifting: Avoid strenuous activity or heavy lifting for several weeks after the procedure to allow time for the incision site to heal.
- Keep the incision site moisturized: Keeping the incision site moisturized with a fragrance-free lotion or ointment can help to keep the skin supple and promote healing.
- Avoid sun exposure: Sun exposure can cause hyperpigmentation (darkening) of scars, so it’s important to keep the incision site covered and to use sunscreen when going outdoors.
- Avoid smoking: Smoking can impede the healing process and increase the risk of complications, so it’s important to avoid smoking during the recovery period.
It’s important to remember that scarring is a normal part of the healing process after liposuction, but with proper care and time, most scars will fade and become less noticeable. If you have any concerns about scarring or the healing process, it’s always best to consult with your surgeon.
LIPOSUCTION RISKS AND COMPLICATIONS
Is liposuction safe?
Liposuction, like any surgical procedure, carries certain risks and potential complications. However, when performed by a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon, liposuction is considered to be a safe procedure.
Some of the risks associated with liposuction include:
- Infection: There is a risk of infection at the incision site, but this risk can be minimized by following the post-operative instructions provided by your surgeon.
- Blood clots: Blood clots can occur in the legs or lungs and can be serious or even fatal.
- Excessive bleeding: Rarely, patients may experience excessive bleeding during or after the procedure.
- Scarring: Liposuction does leave scars, but they are usually small and located in inconspicuous areas, such as the natural creases of the skin.
- Numbness or tingling: There may be temporary numbness or tingling in the treatment area.
- Anesthesia risks: As liposuction is done under anesthesia, there are risks associated with anesthesia, such as allergic reactions, breathing difficulties, and even death.
- Asymmetry: results may be slightly asymmetric, and a secondary procedure may be needed to correct any asymmetry.
It’s important to keep in mind that these complications are rare, and the majority of patients who undergo liposuction experience no serious complications.

Can I get pregnant after liposuction?
Liposuction should not affect your ability to get pregnant. However, it’s important to note that liposuction is not recommended for women who are planning to have more children or who are currently pregnant. As pregnancy can cause changes to the body, it’s best to wait until you have reached your desired weight and are finished having children before considering liposuction.
Is liposuction a permanent method of fat removal?
Liposuction permanently removes fat cells from the treated area, but it does not prevent the remaining fat cells from enlarging if the patient gains weight. The results of liposuction are considered to be long-lasting but not permanent. The body may still produce new fat cells, but the procedure can create a long-term change in the shape and size of the treated area. However, if the patient gains weight after the procedure, the remaining fat cells can enlarge, and the body contour may change.
It’s essential to have realistic expectations and understand that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure and should not be used as a substitute for healthy lifestyle choices. Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise regimen after the procedure can help to maintain the results of liposuction.
LIPOSUCTION – FINANCING
Can you get liposuction on the NHS?
Liposuction is typically considered a cosmetic procedure and is not usually covered by the National Health Service (NHS) in the United Kingdom. The NHS usually only covers procedures that are deemed to be clinically necessary, and liposuction is typically not considered to be clinically necessary.
The NHS does not typically cover liposuction for weight loss, body contouring, or for the removal of cellulite. However, there are some exceptions, such as if the liposuction is done as part of reconstructive surgery after weight loss surgery or in cases where there is a medical condition that causes abnormal fat deposits that affect the patient’s health and well-being, such as Lipodystrophy.
It’s best to consult with your GP or a specialist in the NHS if you are interested in liposuction, and they will be able to advise you on the best course of action. You can also consider private clinics. However, it’s important to keep in mind that liposuction is a surgical procedure, and it carries risks and side effects as any other surgery. It’s important to choose a reputable and qualified surgeon and do proper research before considering the procedure.
Which celebrities have had liposuction?
Many celebrities have had liposuction, which is a surgical procedure used to remove excess fat from specific areas of the body. However, it is important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss solution and it should be done for the right reason.
Some celebrities who have publicly acknowledged having liposuction include:
- Tara Reid
- Megan Fox
- Kim Kardashian
- Britney Spears
- Chris Pratt
- Sharon Osbourne
- Jason Priestley
- Courtney Love
- Tori Spelling
It’s worth noting that not all celebrities disclose whether they have had liposuction or any other cosmetic procedure, so this list is not exhaustive.
Is liposuction worth it?
Whether liposuction is worth it is a personal decision that depends on an individual’s specific goals, expectations, and circumstances. Liposuction can be an effective way to remove stubborn fat deposits and improve the contours of the body, but it is not a weight loss procedure and should not be used as a substitute for healthy lifestyle choices.
It’s important to have realistic expectations and understand that liposuction is a surgical procedure that carries risks and requires a significant recovery period. It’s always best to consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to determine if liposuction is an appropriate option for you and to help you understand the potential benefits and risks of the procedure.
