Why Liposuction Is The Best Remedy For Fat Removal?

There is a common misconception that liposuction surgery is performed to help an obese individual to shed off the excess fat amount one is having.  But in reality, this procedure is a body contouring surgery which only helps those individuals who are maximum 30% of their ideal body weight. This article will look into the surgical details of the traditional fat removal technique.

What is the basic surgical procedure? 

Simply put, the surgery involves a simple method of fat extraction from different body parts which have accumulated excess fat tissues which are not fading away with the help of diet or exercise. The candidate is put under general anesthesia and an incision is made in the area from where unwanted fat deposits are to be extracted out. A thin hollow tube which is known as the cannula is inserted into the body and is moved back and forth so as to dislodge and dissolve the fat. The cannula has an attached probe which pulls out the fat from the body at the end of the procedure.  

Who are the ideal candidates of this procedure?

·         A candidate who is within 30% of the ideal weight is perfectly suitable for this process.

·         The candidate should be healthy and fit and should not suffer from any life impairing disease. 

·         The candidate should have followed a diet chart and a regimen of exercise for some months at least before deciding to go for vaser liposuction.

·         The procedure is not suited for obese people and does not help the obese to lose weight.

Who are not fit for the surgery?      

·         A candidate is not suitable for the aesthetic surgery if one is not blessed with smooth tight skin; though improving the skin elasticity is possible with the help of exercise.  The candidate should not be having any cellulite deposits on his body because cellulite is not supposed to go away with the surgery.

·         People should be more or less realistic about the surgery. The surgery is best suited for people who are otherwise healthy and lead an active life. Sedentary lifestyle is harmful if a candidate wants to retain the results of the surgery.

·         The skin should be elastic and firm and it should not be saggy.

What should one know beforehand?

Talking to the surgeon who will carry out the cosmetic surgery is always quite helpful to de-stress the candidate’s mind if it is already preoccupied with fears in the mind. The surgeon before he/ she performs any surgery will alleviate any doubts that a candidate might have. The expert will prepare the candidate for the surgery with his/ her instructions. There might be restrictions regarding the diet which a candidate must follow till before the surgery takes place and after the surgery as well. Also, there might be restrictions regarding alcohol intake, smoking and drug consumption.

Talking about the final results

Finally, a candidate must keep in mind that there might be certain degree of bruising and swelling and soreness post surgery for a few days as it is natural in the case of any cosmetic procedure. But these symptoms will disappear after completing the course of medicine prescribed by the surgical experts and the candidate would be able to return a normal lifestyle.
