What is liposuction and how does it work?

Saptarshi Bhattachriya28 Nov, 2024Health

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat from specific areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, and arms. It works by inserting a small tube (cannula) through tiny incisions, which breaks up and suctions out the fat. While effective for contouring, it’s not a solution for weight loss. Results are typically visible after the swelling decreases, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle helps sustain long-term outcomes.
