Liposuction is a surgical procedure that involves removing localised deposits of fat from specific areas of the body to change body shape.

Liposuction can change an individual’s physique. Small genetically predisposed areas of stubborn fat pockets (chin, lower abdomen) can be difficult to remove naturally. Regardless of diet and exercise, genetics can determine how the fat will remain, however this can be addressed with liposuction.

Prior to your consultation appointment you will be required to obtain a referral letter from your GP.

FAQ’S

  • This procedure is done in hospital under a general anaesthetic or local anaesthetic depending on the area or the volume of fat being removed.

    The procedure involves having small cuts in the skin, made into skin creases where possible, and then having a cannula placed into the fat layer. A light suction allows the removal of fat. When the desired body change has been achieved the cannula is removed and the small entry points are sutured.
