Which patients are good candidates for liposuction?
Thursday, October 30, 2008 19:49Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes localized collections of fatty tissue to give the properly selected patient a slimmer and smoother body contour. Patients who achieve the best results should be of
relatively normal weight with extra fat localized in specific areas such as the hips, buttocks, and abdomen. Liposuction is also effective in removing fat deposits from the back, legs, arms, face and neck.
Liposuction is not a substitute for proper diet and exercise and is not a procedure for overall weight loss. If the patient’s skin has lost much of its elasticity, they may need a skin tightening procedure such as a thigh lift, tummy tuck, arm lift or buttock lift. Following surgery, the patient may wear a snug garment to promote skin shrinkage and to minimize swelling and bruising. The patient can expect to return to work within one or two weeks.
