Frequently Asked Questions
How long does the liposuction procedure take?
The average time taken to perform liposuction surgery is around 1-2 hours. However, the exact duration of the procedure will vary depending on the areas being treated and the technique used. Liposuction surgery on smaller areas, such as the chin and neck, requires around 30 minutes, whereas for larger areas, such as the abdomen or buttocks, liposuction may take around 60 to 90 minutes. The surgery duration can also exceed 2 hours in case the patient is getting full-body liposuction.
How much does liposuction cost in India?
Liposuction surgery cost in India starts from Rs. 30,000 and can go up to Rs. 2,50,000 or more. In the case of full-body liposuction, the cost can even be up to Rs. 3,00,000 or more. If you are considering liposuction for fat removal, it’ll be best to contact the healthcare provider directly and have a consultation.
What are the side effects of liposuction surgery?
Some common side effects of liposuction surgery include the following:
These side effects are only temporary and often resolve on their own within a few weeks after the surgery. If they persist for a longer period, it’ll be best to contact the doctor.
Is it possible to perform liposuction on multiple body parts at the same time?
Yes, liposuction can be performed on multiple body parts at the same time. People often choose to combine arm, back, belly, thigh, chin, and neck liposuction as required.
When can I start exercising after liposuction?
You can and should start exercising after 6-8 weeks of liposuction. Initially, the doctor may advise you to avoid strenuous activities. But as the body heals, the doctor will recommend exercising and may also create a customized exercise program to enhance the results of liposuction.
Can I get multiple plastic surgery procedures at once?
Yes, combining multiple plastic surgeries is also a common practice, and it is safe to do so. In many cases, tummy tuck is combined with liposuction to improve skin elasticity and enhance the results. Similarly, breast augmentation is often combined with breast lift, and rhinoplasty is often combined with chin augmentation.
Will I have scars after liposuction?
Yes, scarring is a standard outcome of surgical procedures, including liposuction surgery. However, in most cases, the scars of liposuction fade away as the skin heals, and the size of the scars is also small to ensure it doesn’t have an aesthetic downside for the patient. Furthermore, people barely notice the scars after 6 to 12 months.
Do I have to stay in the hospital after liposuction surgery?
No, liposuction is performed on an outpatient basis, which means that hospitalization is not required. Most patients who undergo the surgery are kept under observation for an hour or so and then discharged on the same day, thereby eliminating the need for a hospital stay.
Can I lose 12 kg with liposuction?
No, liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure. The maximum amount of fat that can be safely removed in one session of liposuction is usually equivalent to 2-4 kg. If more fat is removed, the chances of developing complications during and after the surgery increase significantly. Thus, as a safe practice, most liposuction surgeons don’t exceed this limit.
Is liposuction a permanent fix?
Liposuction successfully removes the fat tissues from the body and provides long-lasting results. However, liposuction cannot prevent the leftover fat tissues from expanding. That’s why patients are advised to follow a healthy lifestyle after liposuction to retain the results. And even if you do gain weight, the growth won’t be excessive in the treated area.
What is the recovery period for liposuction surgery?
The complete recovery period after liposuction surgery can take around 2-3 months. The patient will recover from the surgery within 2-4 weeks and can get back to his/her regular life within a month.
Can fat grow back after lipo?
No, human beings are born with a limited number of fat cells, and those cells cannot grow back. When you undergo liposuction surgery, these cells are extracted from the body, and we cannot grow new fat cells.
Is liposuction painful?
No, liposuction is not painful. The surgery is performed after administering anesthesia, usually general anesthesia, which numbs the body and puts the patient to sleep. Thus, the patient doesn’t feel any kind of pain or discomfort during the surgery.
Can liposuction help with weight loss (Obesity)?
Liposuction is not a method of weight loss; it is a fat-removal technique. Many people believe that the surgery allows people to lose weight, but the initial weight loss is due to the removal of fat tissues, and even that loss is around 2-4 kg only. To lose weight, you will have to adopt a healthy and active lifestyle.
Does male liposuction surgery cost the same as female liposuction surgery?
Usually, yes. The cost of liposuction is not affected by gender, nor is it a determining criterion. The cost will be affected by the extent of fat removal, the targeted areas, technique used, surgeon’s fee, etc.
