Liposuction is one of the most popular procedures for body sculpting. It is aimed to result a specific portion of the body like the thighs, or hips, or arms. The surgeon makes minimal incisions so that the excess fat can be removed. This procedure removes the fat cells permanently from that area. There are different kinds of liposuction and before the procedure the surgeon will discuss the type of procedure that is ideal for you. If you’re looking for a liposuction Chicago surgeon, Dr. Bloch is an experienced surgeon who has been in this industry for a decade or more.
What is liposuction?
Liposuction slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits and improving your body contours and proportion.
Liposuction techniques may be used to reduce localized fat deposits of the:
- Thighs
- Hips and buttocks
- Abdomen and waist
- Upper arms
- Back
- Inner knee
- Chest area
- Cheeks, chin and neck
- Calves and ankles
Liposuction can be performed alone or along with other plastic surgery procedures, such as a facelift, breast reduction or a tummy tuck.
Who is an ideal candidate for liposuction?
An ideal candidate for liposuction should have realistic expectations to start with and also needs to fit into these basic qualities:
- He or she is slightly overweight
- Has an elastic and firm skin
- In good health
- Pockets of fat in the body which they cannot get rid of by dieting or exercising
Patients who have loose or poor skin quality may not be well suited for liposuction. If the skin looses elasticity it will develop irregularities after this procedure. Usually age does not play a role in the suitability of this procedure, however older people usually have less elastic skin. Again, it depends on the individual and their body condition in order to go through liposuction. Younger people who have better skin conditions get better results out of liposuction.
The first step to take is to arrange a consultation with the plastic surgeon. During the consultation the surgeon may be able to give you the best recommendations that suit your skin type and condition. It is very important to be candid with your surgeon and discuss everything openly. When you have decided to go through liposuction, the surgeon will lay out a few guidelines to prepare you for the surgery. This may include dietary restrictions and cutting down on alcohol as well.
