How is liposuction treatment performed?

Wondering how doctors perform liposuction? Here’s a step-by-step overview of liposuction surgery;

Consultation & evaluation of body

Your body will be carefully evaluated by a doctor on the day of consultation, before the doctor diagnoses the type of treatment. Whether it’s medical history or areas of treatment, everything will be discussed by the doctor.

Anesthesia

Once the area of treatment and process is decided, the patient will be given local anesthesia (for smaller areas) or general anesthesia (for larger areas) to ensure treatment is painless.

Incisions

After anesthesia, small incisions are made by surgeon around the areas to be treated.

Fat Removal

A cannula, a hollow tube, is inserted through the incision, which is moved back and forth, and the fat is loosened and pulled out using a vacuum or syringe. Incisions are closed after that with sutures.

Types of technology that can be used:

  • Laser-assisted liposuction – melts fat before removal
  • Ultrasound (VASER) liposuction – breaks down fat using sound energy
  • Power-assisted liposuction (PAL) – uses vibrating cannulas

Dr Vijay Langer performs liposuction surgery in Delhi at his clinic, Langersculpt, using these three types of technology, depending on the patient's diagnosis and expectations.
