Preparing for Your Liposuction Journey
What to Expect with Liposuction Surgery
Liposuction is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the treatment area and your preferences. During the procedure, small incisions are made near the target areas, and a fine cannula is used to gently remove unwanted fat while preserving surrounding tissues.
Surgery time varies depending on the number of areas treated but generally lasts one to three hours. Most patients return home the same day.
After surgery, you can expect mild swelling and bruising that gradually improves over several weeks. Compression garments are worn to support healing and maintain new contours.
Recovery and Results
Most patients return to light activities within a few days and resume exercise in about two to four weeks. Swelling continues to improve for several months, revealing a slimmer and more defined contour.
The results of liposuction are long-lasting, as fat cells removed during the procedure do not return. Maintaining a balanced diet and regular exercise helps preserve your results for years to come.
