Liposuction

Liposuction is a body-contouring procedure designed to remove stubborn, localised areas of fat that have not responded to a healthy diet and regular exercise.

While liposuction is not a weight-loss treatment, it can help refine your shape, improve proportion and create greater definition across selected areas of the body.

Liposuction Tailored to You

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure that removes unwanted fat from targeted areas of the body.

During the procedure, your surgeon makes small incisions and uses a narrow surgical tube, known as a cannula, to carefully loosen and remove fat cells. The treatment is planned around your natural body shape, the areas you would like to address and the result you hope to achieve.

Liposuction may be suitable for people who are close to a stable weight but have specific areas of fat that remain resistant to diet and exercise. It is not intended to treat obesity, cellulite or stretch marks, and it does not replace a healthy lifestyle.

Your surgeon will assess your skin quality, body proportions, medical history and expectations before recommending the most appropriate treatment plan.

What to Expect

Your journey begins with a detailed consultation with a qualified surgeon.

During this appointment, you will be able to discuss the areas that concern you, the changes you would like to make and any questions you may have. Your surgeon will review your medical history, assess your suitability for surgery and explain what liposuction may realistically achieve for you.

A personalised treatment plan will then be created, outlining the areas to be treated, the surgical approach and what you can expect during your recovery.

Results become more noticeable gradually as swelling reduces and the treated areas settle.

Common Areas Treated

Liposuction can be used to treat several areas of the body, including:

Abdomen and waist
Hips and flanks
Inner and outer thighs
Back and bra-line area
Upper arms
Chin, neck and jawline
Knees and ankles
Chest area, including some cases of male chest reduction

Your surgeon will advise whether liposuction is appropriate for the area you would like to treat.

Your Liposuction Journey

Your Personal Consultation

Your journey begins with a detailed consultation. Your surgeon will assess your areas of concern, medical history, skin quality and treatment goals to determine whether liposuction is suitable for you..

Tailored Treatment Plan

A personalised surgical plan will be created around your body shape and desired outcome. Your surgeon will explain which areas can be treated, the likely result and any limitations or risks you should understand.

Your Liposuction Procedure

Your procedure will be performed with your safety and comfort prioritised throughout. Small incisions are made, and stubborn fat deposits are carefully removed using a fine surgical cannula to help refine the shape and contour of the treated area.

Recovery and Aftercare

After surgery, you will receive clear guidance covering compression garments, wound care, activity levels and follow-up appointments. Your results will gradually become more visible as swelling settles and your body heals.

Aftercare and Recovery

Recovery following liposuction will vary depending on the number and size of the areas treated and the extent of your surgery.

It is normal to experience swelling, bruising, tenderness and some discomfort following the procedure. These symptoms should gradually improve as your body heals.

You may be advised to wear a compression garment to support the treated areas, reduce swelling and help your body settle into its new contours. Your clinical team will explain how long the garment should be worn and when you can return to work, exercise and your usual routine.

The treated area may initially appear swollen or uneven. This should continue to improve over the following weeks and months, with your final result becoming clearer as the tissues settle.

Attending your scheduled reviews and carefully following your aftercare instructions will help support a safe recovery.
