Liposuction

Liposuction can help you lose the stubborn fat that is holding you back. In a liposuction procedure, an incision is made in the area of the body where the fat deposits are concentrated. Once the incision is made, a cannula, which is a hollow tube, is inserted through the incision and into the fat deposit that needs to be removed. This hollow tube, called a cannula, is a tube that has a small suction at the end of it. The suction draws the fat out of the body through the cannula and into a machine where it is purified. This purified fat is then reintroduced into the body through a tiny incision in the skin. During the liposuction procedure, the amount of fat taken from the body is very small. In some cases, only a couple of teaspoons of fat are taken from the body, making this a minimal surgery.

What Areas Can Be Removed During Liposuction?

Fat is not just located around your middle and back. This is the part of the body that most people concentrate on removing during a liposuction procedure. However, fat can be found on other areas of the body as well, especially if you are carrying too much weight in certain areas. In addition to the middle and back of the body, fat can be removed from the arms, legs, and love handles.
