Liposuction | Costs | Risks | Recovery

Liposuction surgery, also known as body contouring, is a procedure that can help sculpt your body by removing unwanted fat and reshaping particular areas of the body, including the stomach, hips, buttocks, thighs, and upper arms.

For a lot of patients, losing weight and achieving body confidence requires a combination of healthy eating and regular exercise. However, some can be left with stubborn pockets of fat that no amount of exercise or dieting can move; this is where liposuction will make a difference.

Specific details can vary based on factors such as the extent of the procedure and the individual patient’s circumstances. Mr Fitton will provide you with personalised advice during your consultation.

For a lot of patients, losing weight and achieving body confidence can only be achieved by liposuction.

Benefits of Liposuction

      • Safe Removal of Fat
        One of the top reasons that liposuction is becoming so popular is that it is such a safe procedure. Liposuction is typically an outpatient procedure and patients are usually back on their feet after a couple of days of rest.

 

      • Permanently Removes Fat Cells
        Once the fat cells are removed, you will be pleased to know, they will not grow back. It’s important after a liposuction procedure to maintain your weight so that you do not gain weight in other areas of your body.

 

      • Fat Loss Can Improve Your Health
        We all know the importance of maintaining a healthy weight and body mass index (BMI). Because liposuction removes unwanted fat deposits, it can help you move closer to your ideal weight and BMI, making you altogether healthier and feel more confident.

 

      • Improves Your Silhouette 
        Liposuction improves your appearance by giving you a more aesthetically appealing physique, changing the ways that others view you and more importantly making you feel more confident to show your body.

 

      • Boost Your Self-Esteem
        By removing stubborn fat cells and providing patients with a more contoured look, liposuction often gives patients a boost in self-esteem, making them feel more confident in their clothing and bathing suits.

 

      • Removes Fat That Diet and Exercise Can’t
        Perhaps one of the biggest benefits of liposuction is that it is effective at removing stubborn fatty deposits. no matter how well you eat or how often you work out. Liposuction is often used by people who are healthy eaters and physically active but can’t seem to shed unwanted fat in particular areas like the stomach, love handles, arms and back rolls.

Liposuction Risks

Liposuction is a surgical procedure, and like any surgery, it carries certain risks and potential complications. While liposuction is generally considered safe it is important to be aware of the possible risks.

Some of the potential risks associated with liposuction include:

    1. Infection: Infections can occur at the incision sites.
    2. Bleeding: Excessive bleeding can occur during or after the procedure.
    3. Fluid Imbalance: Liposuction involves the removal of fluids, which can lead to imbalances if not properly managed.
    4. Numbness: Temporary or permanent numbness in the treated area.
    5. Uneven Results: Liposuction may result in uneven or irregular contours.
    6. Scarring: While incisions are typically small, scarring can occur.
    7. Blood Clots: Blood clots can form, potentially leading to more serious complications.
    8. Anesthesia Risks: Anesthesia can have its own risks and complications.

Mr Fitton will discuss these risks with you before you make a decision and to ensure that you are a suitable candidate for the procedure.

Liposuction Recovery

Recovery from liposuction can vary depending on the extent of the procedure and the individual’s healing process.

Here is a general timeline of what to expect:

    • Immediately After Surgery:
      You will likely experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort. A compression garment may be worn to minimise swelling and aid in the healing process.
    • First Week:
      Swelling and bruising may peak within the first few days and then start to gradually subside. You may need to take time off work and avoid strenuous activities.
    • 2-4 Weeks:
      Swelling continues to decrease, and you may start to see more noticeable results. You may still need to wear a compression garment.
    • 2-6 Months:
      Final results start to become apparent as residual swelling continues to diminish. Scarring will also fade over time.

It’s important to follow Mr Fittons post-operative instructions carefully to ensure a smooth recovery and optimal results.

If you’re considering liposuction, consult a board-certified plastic surgeon or medical professional, such as Mr Fitton, to discuss your individual case, including costs, risks, and recovery expectations.

Plastic Surgery Finance Options

Plastic surgery finance options vary depending on the clinic or facility you choose, but generally include payment plans and financing through third-party lenders.

These plans can allow you to pay for your procedure through manageable monthly payments rather than a lump sum upfront.

 

To make it easy, we’ve teamed up with Nuffield Health Plymouth and Duchy Hospital Cornwall so you can quickly and easily apply for a loan.

 

The price you are given at the time of consultation will include everything from the procedure itself, to the cost of your overnight stay and aftercare appointments.

It is important to thoroughly research and compare financing options to determine the most affordable and feasible method for you.
