Liposuction

Do you have unwanted fat pockets that won’t go away despite a healthy lifestyle, including diet and exercise? Have you consider Liposuction? Almost any area in your body can be addressed with Liposuction. It is a surgical procedure that will help you get the desired body shape and may boost your self-confidence. If you are considering Liposuction, count on Dr. Mansher Singh, the expert on Liposuction based out of New York.

What is Liposuction? 

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure that involves removing excess fat from specific areas of the body such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms, and neck. The procedure is done using a small, hollow tube called a cannula, which is inserted through tiny incisions in the skin. The cannula is then moved back and forth to loosen and remove the excess fat cells.

Who is a good candidate for Liposuction?

Liposuction is not a weight-loss surgery and is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. The ideal candidate for liposuction is someone who is close to their ideal body weight but has stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise. Good candidates for liposuction also have good skin elasticity, which helps to ensure that the skin will tighten and conform to the new body shape after the procedure.

What to expect during the Liposuction procedure?

Liposuction is usually performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. The procedure can take anywhere from one to several hours, depending on the number and size of the areas being treated.

During the procedure, Dr. Singh will make small incisions in the target area and insert the cannula to remove the excess fat. He may use a variety of techniques to help break up the fat cells and make them easier to remove.

After the procedure, patients are usually sent home with specific post-operative care instructions. You will be advised to wear compression garments to help minimize swelling and support the new body contours.

The first week following your procedure you will experience some bruising, swelling, and soreness. By the third week most patients start to see dramatic changes and are able to resume exercise and discontinue the compression garment.

LIPOSUCTION BEFORE & AFTER GALLERY »

Not a Weight Loss Surgery

Liposuction is a body contouring surgery not a weight-loss surgery. The patients should continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle for a good long term result.

Not a Skin Excision Procedure

Liposuction is a great procedure to address the stubborn fat that won’t go away with traditional methods. However, it does not address skin redundancy and your skin won’t get tighter from Liposuction.

Lifestyle

Liposuction works best on patients that have a stable and normalized weight, and maintain an active and healthy lifestyle.
