Liposuction is a surgical procedure that involves removing localised deposits of fat from specific areas of the body to contour and enhance the body’s proportions.
Liposculpture can have a truly transformational effect on an individual’s physique. Small genetically predisposed areas of stubborn fat pockets (double chins, lower abdomen) can be extremely difficult to remove naturally. Regardless of diet and exercise, genetics can determine how the fat will remain, however this can be easily addressed with liposculpture. For those after a transformational physique, often popular pre-wedding, 360 Corset Liposuction can clinch in waistlines to accentuate beautiful hourglass curves.

After the procedure, there is a recovery period of approximately six weeks where you will wear a compression garment to support your healing from the surgical procedure — however, everyone’s pain threshold and recovery timeline will be different. You will start to see results and your new contours 6 weeks post procedure, with the full results of liposculpture or liposuction evident from 3-6 months after the procedure.
During your consultation at Studio Aesthetica with our experienced Surgeon, Dr David Ong, he will listen, measure and advise you on the complete process of proceeding with liposuction and liposculpture. He will also discuss in depth the dedicated after procedure care you will receive so you know what to expect from your cosmetic treatment procedure.

The majority of our patients will treat multiple areas in one session. This is a more cost efficient approach and reduces overall recovery period. Treating multiple areas also allows our Surgeon to create beautiful holistic results. With careful consideration of your aesthetic proportions, our surgeons skillfully contour the entire body to give you your desired silhouette.

Because both our liposuction and liposculpture in Sydney involve physically removing fat deposits from your body, the results are permanent. Your diet, lifestyle and genetic factors may impact how you continue to gain weight in certain treatment areas; however, most clients see great results from their liposuction and liposculpture procedures that last into the long term.
