What Is Liposuction?

Our population in India is quite overweight due to fast food and other lifestyle habits, and, as a consequence, fat loss or weight loss treatments like medicines, gym exercise programs and exercise regimes, crash diet programs, diet books, liposuction, tummy tuck, or non-surgical fat loss treatments have exploded during this decade. Liposuction is a popular plastic surgery that is both safe and effective.

Liposuction surgery, sometimes referred to as “lipo” by patients for short is a body contouring procedure that slims and reshapes areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits.

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that can remove unwanted body fat from specific body areas. It's not typically considered an overall weight-loss method but if you have too much in certain places and stable weight elsewhere on your body, this may be an option to consider!

Who Can Benefit From Liposuction?

Liposuction can benefit those who are unable to lose excess fat even after diet or exercise.  Liposuction can also be the best solution for women wanting to lose fat after pregnancy.

On Which Body Parts Can Liposuction Be Performed?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a suction technique to break up and remove fat from specific areas of the body and also shapes (contours) these areas. From head to toe, the following body areas are commonly targeted for liposuction procedure:

  • The area under the chin and the neckline
  • Upper arms
  • Chest
  • Back
  • Abdomen
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Hips
  • Buttocks
  • Thighs (outer thighs and inner thighs)
  • Inner Knees

Are You An Ideal Candidate For Liposuction?

As a patient, you should have realistic expectations. It is also essential that you are in good health before you get liposuction. That means at the least you must fulfill these conditions to be an ideal candidate for liposuction surgery:

  • Not have health problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, or a weak immune system
  • Be within the 30% range of your ideal weight
  • Have firm, elastic skin
  • Quit smoking or be willing to quit smoking weeks before

Dr. Vasant Gholave is a highly skilled and experienced cosmetic surgeon in Pune for liposuction. He will tailor the procedure to your specific needs and goals to ensure you get the best possible results.

What Is The Cost Of Liposuction In India?

When it comes to liposuction, insurance doesn't cover the procedure because it is a cosmetic surgery. The cost of fat reduction or liposuction surgery can vary quite a bit, depending on a number of factors. The cost of liposuction depends on:

  • Type of liposuction technique
  • Type of anesthesia
  • Number of regions to be treated
  • Consultation fees
  • Fees of the surgeon
  • Cost of the surgical facility
  • Cost of the dressings, tests, and post-surgery garments.

The other factors that decide the final fat removal surgery cost/ liposuction price may include the goals of the surgery, the procedure used for liposuction, the experience and expertise of the surgeon, the location of the clinic or hospital, and accreditation of the facility matter.

Case 1 Before & After: Before liposuction surgery, the patient's stomach protruded from the rest of his body. Now though, he is proud to show off a well-contoured midsection that gives him an overall slim appearance.

What happens before a Liposuction surgery?

Before the procedure, Dr. Vasant Gholave will discuss with the patient what they expect from the Liposuction surgery. He will review the medical history of the patient and ask about any medical conditions they may have and any medications, supplements, or herbs they may be taking.

Dr. Vasant Gholave will recommend that the patient stop taking certain medications, such as blood thinners or NSAIDs, at least three weeks before the surgery. The patient may also need to get certain lab tests before the procedure, such as blood tests.

How Is Liposuction Performed?

Patients may receive local or general anesthesia before the procedure.

An epidural may be used for treatments on the lower body. In this case, the anesthesia is injected into the epidural space surrounding the dura, or fluid-filled sac, around the spine. This partially numbs the abdomen and legs. Local anesthesia might be used when liposuction is done on very small areas.

There are just a few different liposuction surgical methods. But they use a thin tube, called a cannula, which is connected to a vacuum to suction the fat from your body.

Types Of Liposuction 

  • Tumescent liposuction:
    The procedure starts with anesthesia and a vessel constrictor, which are pumped below the skin to suction out fat from selected areas. Then small suction devices are used to extract the excess body fat. This is the most popular way of liposuction.
  • Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL):
    In this procedure, the cannula is energized with ultrasound waves or ultrasonic energy, which is why it is also called ultrasonic liposuction. This technique uses sound waves that penetrate under your skin and rupture the cell walls of fatty tissue cells. This process liquefies the fat, which is then removed by suction-assisted liposuction. UAL is suitable for fibrous areas like the back, and the male breast and for areas where lipo has been done before.
  • Laser-assisted liposuction (LAL):
    Also known as SmartLipo or laser-guided lipo, this procedure is a less invasive alternative to traditional liposuction treatment for removing unwanted fat. It uses laser energy and heat to melt away accumulated pockets of fat, but it also requires injection with tumescent fluid beforehand.
  • Power-assisted liposuction (PAS):
    PAS, also known as powered liposuction, is a form of body contouring surgery that uses specialized cannulas with a mechanized system to rapidly move back and forth, which allows the surgeon to pull out fat more easily than in traditional liposuction.

The cosmetic surgeon will typically leave the incisions open after surgery so they can drain out excess fluid and blood. Either bandages or an elasticated support corset will be fitted for the area where the procedure was done.

Painkillers may be prescribed to help relieve pain and inflammation, and the surgeon will remove the stitches in a follow-up appointment.

How Is The Recovery After The Procedure?

The patient might not have to stay in the surgical facility depending on the type of procedure. Those who have general anesthesia usually spend the night in the surgical facility. Those who had local anesthesia may be able to leave the surgical facility on the same day.

Antibiotics may be given immediately after the operation. But the patient should expect bruising, numbness, swelling, and soreness for at least a few weeks. The swelling goes off in 6 to 8 weeks.

The patient may be required to wear a compression garment for 3 to 4 months after surgery to control swelling and for better skin contraction.

Generally, people can return to work within a few days and get back to normal activities within 2 weeks. However, every individual’s recovery time is different.

Additional Procedures That Can Be Done In Conjunction With Liposuction In Pune

Liposuction in Pune can be combined with other cosmetic surgery procedures to achieve the desired results. Some of the most common procedures that are done in conjunction with liposuction are breast enlargement, tummy tuck, and male breast reduction.

What Can Be Expected After The Liposuction Procedure?

After getting liposuction, those who maintain their body weight can expect permanent results. Those who gain weight after the procedure may find changes in their fat distribution. For eg; those who used to have excess fat in their hips might find that their buttocks have become the new problem area.

Maintaining a steady lifestyle and a good diet is necessary to maintain the result of liposuction.

We were based in UK when I had severe burn on my right hand. I was undergoing burn dressing daily almost for 3 months there. But some portion of the wound didn't heal.In between treatment, we relocated to India and the wound was still not fully healed.While searching options on web for my wound healing, I came across the Arra Aesthetics and I came to know about the best laser treatment for wound healing. I consulted Dr. Vasant Gholave Plastic Surgeon in Pune for my non healing wound and post burn keloid of right hand at Arra Aesthetics. He explained the latest revolutionary Recosma LASER technology for wound and keloid. Although I was tense and worried about my wound, I decided to give it a try for this new laser therapy. To my surprise the wound healed completely by the end of 3rd session which was fron 10 days from my consulting session. The keloid scars have become soft and thin, also reducing in thickness after recosma laser.I am very happy and satisfied with my treatment.Dr. Vasant Gholave is highly experienced plastic surgeon. He is gentle and friendly. The clinic has advanced laser machines and the facility provided is very standard and cleanliness is maintained very much.I had wonderful experiences in Arra clinic . I highly recommend the clinic to people.
