Liposuction in Punjab

Liposuction surgery treats areas of excess fat in the stomach, buttocks, hips, love handles, saddlebags, thighs, calves, ankles, breasts, back, arms and neck at CLAGS, Mohali India. Liposuction removes fat from your body using suction. The fat is first liquified and then sucked out using suction machine or VASER machine at CLAGS Centre, Mohali in Punjab. The procedure can be done under Spinal or General Anaesthesia depending upon the area from where the fat needs to be removed.

During the liposuction procedure at CLAGS Centre in Mohali, Punjab, approximately 8-10% of the body fat can be removed in one sitting, which is quite significant when you calculate it from 2-3 parts of the body. Those desirous of more fat loss should opt for bariatric surgery which results in greater weight loss. The surgery takes approximately 3-6 hours depending on the number of areas from which the fat is going to be removed. The patient normally goes back home on the same day.

Procedure

After the procedure, the area of the body that was treated is firmly wrapped to help reduce swelling, bruising, and pain. You may have to wear the compression garment or wrap for 3 to 4 weeks. Expect some bruising and swelling for at least the first 7 to 10 days. You would feel lighter with so much of the fat gone out of your body and should start regular exercise after about 10 days of the surgery to become even more fitter.

Liposuction is usually very effective for removing fat deposits in small areas but if you regain weight after having liposuction, the fatty bulges that were removed are likely to return or may appear in a different place. Some improvement in body contour is usually noticeable right after surgery & improvement may continue for several weeks and months as the swelling goes away. For more fat loss you may have to undergo another sitting after 3 months of the first surgery.

Side effects and Cost

Common side effects of liposuction include:

Temporary swelling, bruising, soreness, and numbness in and around the treated areas.

Irritation and minor scarring around the incision sites where the cannulas were inserted.

Baggy or rippling skin. The skin will usually tighten and retract after a few months. But in some people the skin may remain somewhat loose.

If you are trying to lose weight, liposuction is not a substitute for exercise and a balanced diet. In fact, most cosmetic surgeons agree that the best candidates for liposuction are healthy people who are at or close to a healthy weight but who have stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to exercise.

The cost of Liposuction Surgery for any one body part is USD 1500 and the cost for abdomen, buttocks, flanks together would be USD 3000.
