Liposuction is one of the methods used by cosmetic medical experts in removing excess fat from deposits beneath the skin using a cannula - a hollow stainless steel tube that uses a powerful vacuum. Just like in other types of surgery, this procedure requires the use of general anesthesia, IV sedation, or local anesthesia, depending on the extent of the area to be treated. For more general information about liposuction, please visit our Liposuction Cosmetic Surgery page for details.

Procedure

As mentioned above, an anesthesia needs to be applied before this procedure begins. The amount and type of anesthesia to be given to the patient varies according to the part of the body that will be affected or the amount of fat that needs to be removed. For small amounts of fat, the anesthesia may be done locally, but for major liposuction procedures, a general one will be given.

The instrument is actually a suction device that has a small stainless steel tip called cannula. This pointed tip is injected into the targeted areas from where the excess fat that lies between the skin and the muscle will be removed. The procedure’s length also varies according to the amount of fat for removal.

Liposuction may be performed as an outpatient procedure if there’s only a minimal amount of fat that needs to be removed. However, in cases that are much more serious, the patient would need to stay in a hospital at least overnight.

Cost

Liposuction Australia experts charge varying prices, too, according to the degree of the procedure. It is general knowledge that cosmetic operations like this are expensive. Just like other surgeries and delicate medical procedures, the bulk of the price depending on the professional fees of the doctor or doctors. Doctors’ fees depend on their expertise level and “popularity.” The more experienced and known the doctor is in performing this procedure successfully, the higher his professional rate, naturally. But this also doesn’t mean that doctors who charge lower fees aren’t any good. This is where you need to do some research.

Another main item in your liposuction cost is the extent of the procedure to be done. Obviously, the more areas of your body that need to be done, the higher the price.

Aside from these, you also need to factor in the fees for the anesthesia, operating room, medication, and, if necessary, hospitalization. You should also expect a follow-up check on your new body to make sure that the procedure is a success.

While it may not be cheap, this procedure is still availed by many, because of its speedy and successful results, especially when performed by a recognized expert in the field.
