Liposuction (Chin, Arms, Abdomen & Thighs)

If you are tired of stubborn fat that won’t just budge, no matter how much you diet and exercise, liposuction procedure may be the answer. Liposuction is one of the most popular forms of body contouring plastic surgery undergone by people to remove fats in specific parts of their body. Like its name suggests, liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes fat from the body using suction. 

The areas where liposuction fat removal can help include the abdomen, neckline and areas under the chin, upper arms, hips and thighs, inner knees, and buttock, giving you the confidence to achieve your dream body.

Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty, involves making small incisions under the skin with a small, thin tube called a cannula to suction out unwanted fat from specific areas of the body.

The cannula is connected to a powerful, high-pressure vacuum that suctions and removes fat and fluids from your body. The procedure is generally done under general anaesthesia and may last up to 3-5 hours, depending on the extent of fat removal. However, a local anesthetic might be used when liposuction is done on very small areas, which only numbs the specific area being treated.

• You can take away unwanted fat in certain areas like belly or thigh

Liposuction can help to remove excess fat between 26% and 80% of the localised fat cells on the targeted areas and improve the shape and contour of the body, resulting in a more toned and sculpted appearance.

• Remove stubborn fats faster and effective

Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgery that requires only small incisions and does not involve extensive cutting or scarring that can produce faster and more effective results.

• Long-lasting enhanced overall appearance

Unlike weight loss through diet and exercise, which can cause fat cells to shrink but not disappear, liposuction physically and permanently removes the fat cells from the body, leading to fewer fat cells.

•  Increased self-confidence

Liposuction can help boost self-esteem and confidence, leading to a happier and more fulfilling life.

People who undergo liposuction usually have a stable body weight but would like to remove body fat in specific parts of the body that you don’t like, for example, the thighs.

Liposuction is best suited for patients who are close to their ideal weight (not overweight or obese) but struggling to remove undesirable and stubborn body fat, such as in the abdomen that has not responded to diet and exercise. Fat removal from liposuction results in a more toned and sculpted appearance.

To be a candidate for liposuction, it means you have too much body fat in specific spots but otherwise have a stable body weight.

If you are overweight, you should not be considering a liposuction procedure as liposuction is not a weight-loss method nor a treatment for obesity, but a cosmetic procedure for “slimmer arms or more contoured body” effects. As such, it is important for you to have realistic expectations to understand that liposuction is not a substitute for a healthy diet and exercise.

As with any major surgery, liposuction carries risks, such as bleeding and a reaction to anesthesia. Possible complications specific to liposuction include pain on the site, numbness, bruising, infection and scarring after the procedure, but this is usually temporary.

The downtime for this treatment is about 2 weeks (10 – 14 days). At this stage exercise and any strenuous activities like jogging, swimming is not allowed. The downtime may be different from one individual to another depending on the patient’s health condition.

Your surgeon may prescribe medication to help control the pain and antibiotics to reduce the risk of infection. You usually need to wear tight compression garments, which help reduce swelling and bruising for at least one week.

The average liposuction cost in Premier Clinic can range anywhere from RM 11,000 per area. The cost for liposuction varies depending on the size of the area. This will be further advised by the doctor during your consultation session. 

It is advised to seek a professional doctor to do liposuction. Although there are beauty centers or individuals who offer these procedures at the comfort of their unregistered facility or houses, it may not be a wise choice as only doctors know how to deal with the intricacies of human anatomy. To reduce any potential risks, you can talk to our qualified plastic surgeon to know more about the procedure.
