UNDERSTANDING LIPOSUCTION: FAT REMOVAL PROCEDURE

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess fatty
tissue from beneath the skin in targeted body areas. This body
contouring technique addresses localized fat deposits that remain
resistant to traditional diet and exercise methods.

IDEAL CANDIDATES FOR LIPOSUCTION

Patients best suited for liposuction typically demonstrate:

 	* Discrete areas of stubborn fat accumulation
	* Stable body weight
	* Good skin elasticity
	* Overall good physical health

PROCEDURE DETAILS

UPMC Altoona Plastic Surgery performs liposuction with precision and
expertise, maintaining patient safety and optimal outcomes.

PROCEDURAL CHARACTERISTICS

 	* Average Procedure Length: 1.5 to 3 hours
	* Anesthesia Type: Sedation or general anesthesia
	* Overnight Stay: Required if more than 5 liters of fat are removed

POST-SURGICAL RECOVERY GUIDELINES

Recovery protocols are carefully designed to support patient healing
and minimize complications:

 	* Work/School Absence: Few days to one week
	* Compression Garment: Wear for 4-6 weeks
	* Initial Activity Restrictions: Non-strenuous activities
	* Full Activity Resume: Approximately 2 weeks post-procedure

IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS

cosmetic procedure and is typically not covered by insurance.
Individual results may vary based on unique physiological factors.
