Liposuction today is carried out in a number of safe, technologically advanced ways. Apart from the traditional method of liposuction that involves the use of cannulas to vacuum fat from the body, there are a host of other non-invasive methods that enable the body to get rid of the fat on its own.
How Long Does Liposuction Take and What Is the Estimated Recovery Period?
The time taken for a liposuction procedure will depend on what kind of liposuction is used and how much fat you want to be removed. Small procedures can take as little as half an hour. If large parts of the body are treated then the surgery can take four to five hours. It also depends on whether you combining liposuction with any other cosmetic surgery like facelift, breast reduction or tummy tuck. Liposuction treatments include:
- Traditional liposuction or tumescent liposuction
- Laser-assisted liposuction that uses a laser to liquefy the fat before removal
- Ultrasound liposuction that uses ultrasound waves to liquefy the fat
