Is Liposuction right for you?

Are you considering liposuction for persistent fat?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to address localised fat deposits that may persist despite diet and exercise. This procedure involves the removal of fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, or jawline.

How is liposuction performed ?

The liposuction procedure

Liposuction is a procedure which should usually be permanent as fat cells are being permanently removed. Once we hit adult life, we have all the fat cells that are needed in our body to survive. If we gain more weight, these fat cells hypertrophy, that is, they get bigger – if we become obese then these fat cells can multiply.

What liposuction does is, it permanently removes fat cells. So that if you eat a little more, there are actually less fat cells present to expand. This is the reason why liposuction is said to be a permanent solution for localised fatty deposits throughout the body. Of course we cannot take all the fat that is there, in fact skill is required to determine which fat should remain and which fat should be removed. The amount and shape of the fat that is left behind is much more important than the amount of fat that is removed.

Your surgery will be performed in a licensed accredited Day Hospital. When you wake up from your procedure, you will feel a bit uncomfortable, but you should not be in a great deal of pain, because Dr. Wetton uses an anaesthetic solution which she puts into the tissues. This helps to decrease the pain and to minimise bleeding. Straight after your surgery you will be swollen and you may be bruised, you will also have your support garment on. You will have little dressings on each of the tiny incisions. You should be able to get back to your normal daily activity and walk around, but do not do exercise or exert yourself during the recovery period.

Most of Dr. Wetton’s patients only take pain killers for 48hrs after liposuction. After this time, you should just feel like you have had a big work out and you may not necessarily experience any discomfort. After a week you will start to notice that a lot of the swelling has gone down, and you may already start to see things taking shape. You will still actually be very swollen though, so give it time. Dr. Wetton will take out the tiny stitch in each incision and you will be taught how to best care for the small scars.

After about 6 weeks you can get back to more vigorous exercise, but it is important to take it easy and listen to your body. You will be well aware of the physical differences a few weeks after your surgery, but it can take up to 12 months for all of the residual swelling to disappear.
