Liposuction
Liposuction
Liposuction at Siam Clinic Phuket is a targeted body-contouring procedure designed to remove excess fat from specific areas such as the abdomen, waist, or chin. Unlike full-body slimming treatments, liposuction focuses on refining shape and enhancing proportions, offering a more sculpted and confident appearance.
Understanding Liposuction
Liposuction removes fat using a cannula inserted beneath the skin to suction out localized fat deposits. It is intended for contouring—not overall weight loss—and helps achieve a more defined silhouette in areas resistant to diet or exercise.
Who Is Liposuction For?
- Individuals near their ideal weight with stubborn fat pockets
- Those wanting more defined contours after weight loss
- People wishing to address localized areas such as love handles or double chin
Target Areas
Liposuction can be performed safely on selected zones, including:
- Abdomen
- Upper arms
- Thighs, hips, and waist
How Liposuction Is Performed
The standard tumescent technique involves:
- Injecting anesthetic solution into the fat layer
- Using a cannula to remove fat
- Wearing compression garments to support healing
Preparing for Liposuction
- Review current medications with the doctor
- Inform the clinic of medical conditions
- Follow fasting instructions before surgery
- Avoid smoking to support recovery
Post-Procedure Care
- Expect swelling and bruising for 2–4 weeks
- Delay bathing for 24 hours and ensure proper wound protection
- Wear compression garments for the first month
- Avoid strenuous activities and gradually return to exercise
- Refrain from smoking and alcohol
Side Effects and Recovery
Common temporary effects include swelling, bruising, numbness, and mild scarring. Uneven contours or rare complications may occur. Most individuals return to work within a few days and resume full activities in approximately 2 weeks.
