Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure designed to remove localised deposits of fat from specific areas of the body and improve body contours. Liposuction in Mumbai is commonly considered for areas such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, back, waist and chin when diet and exercise have not produced the desired contour. At Ambrosia Aesthetics, Dr. Siddharth Prakash provides aesthetic and reconstructive plastic surgery, including body-contouring procedures. Treatment planning is based on the patient’s anatomy, body proportions, areas of concern, overall health and desired outcome.
**Liposuction in Mumbai involves removing excess subcutaneous fat through specialised cannulas inserted through small incisions. The procedure is intended for body contouring rather than general weight loss. It can help create a more proportionate appearance by reducing stubborn fat deposits in selected areas.**
Liposuction may be performed on the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back, hips, buttocks, neck and other areas depending on the patient’s requirements. The appropriate technique and amount of fat removal are determined during consultation.
It is important to understand that liposuction does not treat obesity and is not a replacement for healthy eating or regular physical activity. Candidates generally need to be relatively close to their ideal or stable body weight and have areas of localised fat that are resistant to lifestyle measures.
Liposuction may be appropriate for adults who have stable body weight but experience persistent fat deposits in specific areas. Good skin elasticity can also be beneficial because the skin needs to contract around the newly contoured underlying tissues.
Common areas treated with liposuction include:
A consultation helps determine whether liposuction is suitable or whether another body-contouring procedure, such as abdominoplasty, may be more appropriate.
