Liposuction describes a simple, tech­nique of sucking out unwanted fatty tissue, from areas where it has accu­mu­lated leaving you without unat­tractive bulges. It is one of the most common and popular cosmetic surgery procedure. While primarily a cosmetic problem, liposuc­tion patients often describe the unat­tractive body image as having an impact has on their social and personal life, restricting the clothes they wear, avoiding the beach or swim­ming pools and being with­drawn and hesitant to expose them­selves even to close friends.

If despite a stable body weight, healthy life­style consisting of diet and exer­cise, you have been unable to shift the bulges from your double chin, chest, arms, tummy, flanks, love handles, hips, back, buttocks, or thighs then you are an ideal patient for liposuction.

While liposuc­tion will contribute to skin tight­ening, if your skin does not have a great tone and we are worried that the skin envelope will not shrink back adequately after the liposuc­tion alone, we will advise you to consider BodyTite along with the liposuc­tion to promote further 30 – 40% more contrac­tion of the treated area.

BodyTite is an FDA approved tech­no­logy that uses Radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten the fibro­septal network (FSN) a layer of fibrous tissue under the skin that contrib­utes to tight­ening of the skin envelope. BodyTite is done at the same time as the Liposuction

When used together Liposuction and BodyTite can some­times replace the need for excisional surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do Non-Surgical Fat Reduction devices work?

The enormous numbers of tech­no­logy and devices targeted at this market clearly show that there is no tech­no­logy as yet which is on par with Liposuction. All the devices like Cool Sculpt, Zeltiq, Focused and Non-Focussed Ultrasound Cavitation, ULipo, Ultra Shape, TruSculpt Zerona, SculpSure suffer from the same Achilles heel problem, while most of them can damage the fat cells to an extent, there is no reli­able mech­anism in our bodies to take the fat away after it has been dissolved. In liposuc­tion all the unwanted fatty excess sits in a bottle outside you at the end of the procedure, giving you reli­able, repro­du­cible and long-standing results (if you main­tain your healthy lifestyle).

What are the types of Liposuction?

  • BodyTite Liposuction, as described above the BodyTite tech­no­logy uses RF energy to melt fat and tighten the collagen network under the skin, improving the skin contrac­tion that can be achieved in the treated areas
  • MicroLipo or Micro-canalicular Liposuction, is a fant­astic Suction Assisted Liposuction tech­nique to treat Bingo Wings or Arm Fat, Double Chin, Inner Thighs and Inner Knees, as it is a very precise procedure, done through 3–4 mm punc­tures in hidden places on your body.
  • VASER Lipo is an Assisted Liposuction tech­nique that uses Ultrasound Energy to break stub­born pockets of fat in areas such as the male chest or male backs, making it easy for the Liposuction to remove fat from these areas. It is also used in 3 D or 4 D Hi-Def Procedures.
  • SmartLipo, Laser Assisted Liposuction tech­nique uses laser energy to heat the under the surface of the skin to enhance skin tight­ening and reduce the bruising and recovery.
  • Other Liposuction Variants: PAL or Power Assisted Liposuction, Water Jet Lipo, BodyTite Liposuction, Tickle Lipo.
  • Combined proced­ures: Liposuction is often combined with proced­ures such as Tummy tuck, or Mommy Makeover, Breast Implants or other cosmetic surgery procedures.

Do I need to wear pressure or compression garment after the procedure?

While we do recom­mend that you wear a pres­sure garment as much as possible, we allow you to take it off during a shower or while you are lying down with the arms elev­ated on a pillow. The dura­tion of wearing the compres­sion garment varies from patient to patient.

Can you get arm BodyTite liposuction?

You will have to come in for a consulta­tion with Dr Prashant or one of his colleagues, for us to determine if you are a suit­able candidate for arm BodyTite liposuc­tion or if you need to have an arm lift instead.

Does arm liposuction leave scars?

Liposuction scars are tiny 3–4 mm and are placed in hidden areas, once they mature, they are not noticeable.
