Understanding Liposuction: A Comprehensive Body Contouring Solution

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to improve body shape by removing unwanted fat deposits from specific areas. Dr. Prasad Sureddi performs liposuction on multiple body regions, including the abdomen, buttocks, cheeks, chin, hips, knees, neck, thighs, and upper arms.

Advanced Liposuction Techniques

Modern liposuction techniques offer significant advantages over traditional methods. Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL) and tumescent liposuction provide:

• Quicker recovery times
• More precise fat removal
• Reduced post-operative bruising

Ideal Candidates for Liposuction

The best liposuction candidates are physically healthy individuals with:

• Normal body weight
• Localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
• Firm, elastic skin
• Realistic expectations about procedure outcomes

Surgical Procedure Details

Liposuction typically takes one to two hours and is performed under local, general, or epidural anesthesia. The procedure involves making small incisions and using a cannula to disrupt and remove fat cells from targeted areas.

Specialized Liposuction Techniques

Dr. Sureddi utilizes advanced techniques like:

• Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL): Uses ultrasound to liquefy fat before removal
• Tumescent liposuction: Involves injecting fluid to make fatty tissues firm for precise fat extraction

Recovery and Expectations

Post-surgical recovery involves wearing a compression garment, managing temporary swelling, and following specific post-operative instructions. Most patients return to work within a few days, with full results becoming apparent as swelling subsides.

Maintaining Liposuction Results

Liposuction is not a substitute for healthy lifestyle habits. Maintaining results requires:

• Regular exercise
• Balanced nutrition
• Consistent weight management
