What Areas of the Body Can Be Targeted With Liposuction?
The liposuction procedure is typically performed on the thighs, abdomen, knees, arms, chin and neck. Wherever fat seems to accumulate in your body can be the target of a liposuction procedure.
Liposuction is really not for someone excessively overweight. In fact the liposuction procedure is best performed on someone that is not far off her or his ideal body weight, with a few places where excess fat has accumulated.
A liposuction procedure is not generally a patient's first fat removal choice. It should be considered after other things - such as a low fat and low calorie diet as well as regular physical exercise - have been tried over an extended period of time without successfully removing the fat from the areas of concern on the patient's body.
Liposuction procedure is not about getting rid of all the body fat. The most that can safely be removed in one liposuction procedure is eight percent of a person's body weight, or 2.5 liters, whichever is the lesser.
If the fat that needs to be removed exceeds these maximum limits then an additional liposuction procedure or two would be scheduled six or even twelve months apart.
It is best to have a liposuction procedure when you are between the ages of 18 and 45. This is because your body, at that age, is still very elastic and easily contracts after the liposuction procedure. While this doesn't mean you can't undergo a liposuction procedure when you are older, you may find that your results are not as satisfactory.
