No stitches are used in this operation. After the procedure, an elastic garment is put on, and you are taken by stretcher to the recovery room. The results are excellent. After Liposuction, you may loose a pound or two that you don't regain. However, if you regain more weight, your body will store it in new areas.
Liposuction is very safe and effective.
If you are in good health, of relatively normal weight and have one or more pockets of fat that are larger than the surrounding areas and that are resistant to diet and exercise, then you are a good candidate for this procedure. You must be physically healthy, psychologically stable and realistic in your objectives and expectations. It is also important to have firm elastic skin which will result in a better final contour. Hanging skin will not reshape as well and may require surgical removal of the excess skin.
