Liposuction can help sculpt your body by removing fat from specific areas. The procedure is intended to treat pockets of fat, not to remove fat from large, overall areas. It is important to note, liposuction is not a treatment for obesity. It does not usually improve rippling on the skin surface, and is not a way to treat cellulite. However, for those looking to sculpt the body, you can see results immediately following the procedure, and the results are permanent. Liposuction may be performed on multiple areas of the body during a single procedure. Liposuction is usually effective on areas such as the abdomen, waist, hips, buttocks, inner and outer thighs. Over 400,000 Liposuction procedures are done in the United States each year. Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure which breaks up and sucks the fat out of various parts of the body. The fat is broken up and removed using a long, hollow instrument, known as a cannula. The cannula is inserted under the skin and guided by the Plastic Surgeon to the problem area. The cannula is attached to a high-pressure vacuum that pulls the fat out of the body.
