Liposuction helps remove stubborn fat deposits, sculpting and enhancing the body’s natural contours.
Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that removes excess fat from specific body parts and improves body shape and contours. It is also known as lipoplasty or body contouring.
Achieving an ideal body shape can be a very long and challenging process for many. Many people can reach the desired body weight but are not satisfied with the shape of their body. The isolated pockets of fats remain unchanged around specific body parts and affect one's overall appearance. Even after maintaining a healthy lifestyle, the stubborn pockets of subcutaneous fat are unresponsive to exercise and diet. With the help of liposuction surgery in Vijayawada, one can transform overall body contour and get the desired shape.
The first step to offer the most effective liposuction surgery in Vijayawada, we at Pratap Hospital ensure the patient’s candidacy for the treatment. The ideal candidates are:
Note: Liposuction is not a weight loss treatment but rather a body contouring treatment. It aims to remove fat from specific body parts, so the success of liposuction surgery in Vijayawada is measured in terms of inch loss and not weight loss.
To achieve successful results from liposuction surgery in Vijayawada, the surgeon discusses with the patient their clear outline of overall goals associated with the surgery before the treatment. Then according to the body anatomy, fat deposits, patient’s age and medical history the treatment is planned to provide the optimum results while ensuring safety.
The treatment can take 30 minutes to 3 hours, depending upon the amount of fat to be removed, areas to be targeted and the complexity of the case.
In the first step, the target areas are marked and cleaned. The anesthesia is administered followed by tumescent fluid injection into targeted areas which includes saline solution combined with local anesthetic and a vasoconstrictor that helps control local blood flow. After this if the surgeon prefers he/she can use ultrasonic probes to break the fat and then move on to the suction step. Ultrasonic or popularly called VASER lipo has advantages like better removal and draping of skin, there are several other methods which many surgeons across the world prefer like Power assisted liposuction or RFAL (Radiofrequency assisted liposuction). Small tiny incisions are then made at the target site, and a hollow cannula (stainless steel tube) is introduced into the deep fat layer. The cannula is then moved in back and forth motion through the fat layer, which helps break the fat which is sucked out with a vacuum pump or syringe. The incision site is sutured followed by dressing and a special garment is worn for about a month to support the treated area. Depending on the area covered, the patient can go back home after a few hours of surgery or may need an overnight stay for monitoring.
One can see immediately improved body shape after treatment. However, there can be some swelling that will continue to reduce over the next 2-4 months. The best results can be seen 3-5 months after the surgery.
After treatment, the patient is strongly recommended to wear a compression garment to help reduce swelling and bruising for faster recovery. The garment supports the treated area and also helps the skin to retract better. The skin is surprisingly elastic and will adapt to the new body contours after surgery. If in case there is very excess sagging skin, then skin lift (tummy tuck or body lift) treatment can be performed to remove excess skin.
General anesthesia can be used or intravenous sedation and local anesthesia is used for limited areas.
This is usually a daycare procedure and patients may leave the hospital on the same day of the surgery. However, liposuction done for weight loss is usually high volume liposuction and more monitoring is required so it may be advisable for the patient to stay in the hospital for the night.

Downtime required: 2-7 days

The patient is up and about the same day if the number of areas treated and the amount of fat removed is less. Going back to routine activities occurs in two to three days. The bruising takes about 10-14 days to settle. The compression garment will have to be worn for 4-6 weeks.
