Most areas of liposuction can be performed under local anaesthetic. The site of liposuction is cleaned with antiseptic solution in sterile operating theatres. Local anaesthetic infiltration to the area of fat is performed and once the area is numb small puncture holes are made within skin creases to the area where the liposuction cannula is introduced. The fat is then broken down and sucked through the cannula into a sealed vacuum container.
After the procedure, the small puncture holes are closed with absorbable sutures and small dressings are applied over them. You will then be given a compression garment to wear for 4 to 6 weeks to support the area of liposuction, which will reduce your swelling and speed up your recovery.
