Liposuction is useful to recover corporal contour as it removes unwanted fat deposits located in the double chin, abdomen, back, hips, and thighs that have not disappear with diets or exercise through suction using cannulas or slim tubes (micro-cannulas) leaving minimum scars of no more than 1 cm. long.
Although it improves dramatically the abdominal contour, eliminating fat deposits, IT DOES NOT improve skin’s flaccidity, striae or muscular incompetence of the abdominal wall. Neither is an obesity treatment.

Liposculpture is the same liposuction directed to mold and reposition fat volume where it is required.

Surgery duration depends on the areas that shall be treated and could last from 1 to 3 hours. In small or medium liposuction the patient could return to her/his home after two hours of surgery completion, but in large scale liposuctions the patient shall stay in the hospital for one day. Recovery takes from 4 to 7 days. Afterwards, a post-operative bandeau shall be used during one and half month.
