"I didn’t lose weight—I evicted it. Professionally."

Liposuction/ Fat removal

 Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty or body contouring, is a popular cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat deposits from targeted areas of the body. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms, and neck. By using advanced suction techniques, liposuction not only eliminates unwanted fat but also enhances body contours and proportions, resulting in a more sculpted appearance.

It’s important to note that liposuction is not a weight-loss solution or a substitute for healthy diet and exercise. Individuals seeking significant weight reduction may benefit more from lifestyle changes or bariatric procedures such as gastric bypass surgery.

You may be a suitable candidate for liposuction if you:


  • Have stubborn fat deposits in specific areas
     
  • Maintain a stable body weight
     
  • Are in good overall health
     
  • Have realistic expectations about the results
     

Liposuction can be a powerful tool for body refinement, helping you achieve a more balanced and confident look when diet and exercise alone fall short.

Why is Liposuction Performed?

What to Expect After Liposuction?

Liposuction is performed to remove stubborn fat deposits from areas of the body that have not responded well to diet and exercise. It helps sculpt and define your body by targeting specific problem areas. Common treatment areas include:


  • Abdomen 
  • Upper arms
  • Hips and thighs
  • Buttocks
  • Chest and back
  • Chin and neck
     

When a person gains weight, fat cells increase in size and volume. Liposuction works by permanently reducing the number of fat cells in a specific area. The amount of fat removed depends on the patient’s individual goals and the volume of fat present. As long as your weight remains stable, the contour improvements are long-lasting.

After fat removal, the skin naturally molds to the new contours of the treated areas. Patients with good skin tone and elasticity typically experience smooth, firm results. However, if your skin is thin or lacks elasticity, the skin may appear loose following the procedure.

It’s important to note:


  • Liposuction does not treat cellulite or skin irregularities.
     
  • It does not remove stretch marks.
     
  • It is not a weight-loss solution.

Who is a Good Candidate for Liposuction?

  You may be a good candidate if you:


  • Are in overall good health
     
  • Have localized fat deposits resistant to exercise
     
  • Have firm, elastic skin
     
  • Do not have medical conditions that could complicate surgery (e.g., coronary artery disease, diabetes, weakened immune system, or poor circulation)
     

Liposuction can be a highly effective body contouring tool when performed by an experienced plastic surgeon and followed by a healthy lifestyle.

Risks Associated with Liposuction Surgery

 

While liposuction is a widely performed and generally safe cosmetic procedure, like any surgery, it carries certain risks and potential complications. Understanding these risks can help you make an informed decision:


  • Contour Irregularities: After healing, the skin may appear bumpy, wavy, or uneven due to uneven fat removal, poor skin elasticity, or abnormal healing.
     
  • Fluid Accumulation (Seromas): Temporary pockets of fluid may form under the skin. These may require drainage with a needle.
     
  • Numbness: Some patients may experience temporary or even permanent numbness in the treated areas. In some cases, nerve irritation can also occur.
     
  • Infection: Although rare, skin infections can develop at the surgical site. Prompt medical attention is needed if any signs of infection appear.
     
  • Fat Embolism: This is a rare but serious complication. Loosened fat can enter the bloodstream and become trapped in blood vessels in the lungs or brain. To minimize this risk, surgeons typically limit fat removal to less than 5 liters per procedure.
     

It is important to choose a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon to ensure optimal results and reduce the chances of complications. A thorough consultation and following pre- and post-operative guidelines can also significantly enhance your safety and recovery.

The cost of liposuction in Kerala varies based on the area treated, the type of anesthesia used, and the extent of fat removal required.


  • Liposuction under local anesthesia (e.g., for the double chin) typically costs between ₹20,000 to ₹30,000.
     
  • Larger areas such as the chest, abdomen, or flanks are usually treated under general anesthesia, with prices ranging from ₹30,000 to ₹1,00,000.
     

Your surgeon will recommend the best approach based on your individual goals and medical assessment. A detailed cost estimate will be provided during your consultation.


 

Most patients are discharged the day after their liposuction procedure and can walk and move around freely at home. However, it’s important to follow post-operative guidelines to ensure proper healing:

  • Avoid lifting heavy objects for at least 2 weeks.
     
  • Walking and light activities can typically be resumed after 2 weeks.
     
  • Strenuous exercise or workouts should be avoided for at least 4 weeks to allow the treated areas to heal properly.
     

Recovery time can vary based on the extent of the procedure and individual healing capacity. Your surgeon will provide specific aftercare instructions during your consultation.


 

Liposuction is generally considered a safe and effective cosmetic procedure when performed by a qualified and experienced plastic surgeon. Like any surgical procedure, however, it does carry certain risks and potential complications such as:


  • Reactions to anesthesia
     
  • Infection
     
  • Fluid accumulation (seroma)
     
  • Numbness or contour irregularities
     

To ensure patient safety, we follow FDA-approved guidelines, including a maximum fat removal limit of 5 liters per session. This minimizes the risk of serious complications like fat embolism, a rare but potentially life-threatening condition.

With proper preoperative evaluation, sterile surgical techniques, and postoperative care, the risk of serious complications is extremely low. Always choose a certified and experienced surgeon to reduce risks further.


 

Yes, liposuction permanently removes fat cells from the treated areas. The number of fat cells in a specific region is significantly reduced during the procedure. The amount of fat removed depends on both the volume of fat and the desired contouring outcome.

The results of liposuction are generally long-lasting, but maintaining a stable weight is essential. If you gain weight after the procedure, the remaining fat cells can expand, potentially altering your results. For best outcomes, combine liposuction with a healthy lifestyle and regular exercise.
