Liposuction

If you're looking to remove stubborn pockets of subcutaneous fat in certain areas of your body, liposuction may be the solution for you. This cosmetic procedure is commonly performed on the abdomen, waist, thighs, arms, back, calf, and armpit. To achieve the desired body contouring results, cosmetic surgeons may combine liposuction with other treatments. If you're interested in learning more about liposuction in Singapore, contact a reputable clinic to schedule a consultation.

Harmonious & Natural-Looking Results

By targeting and reducing excess fat in one area of the body, it can improve the overall body fat distribution. This results in a better-balanced body contour that looks natural and subtle.

Minimal Scarring

Scarring is a telltale sign of surgery and is a complexion blemish. However, it is inevitable. Scars are caused by incisions to insert the cannula and suction out unwanted fat. To minimise scarring, our surgeons ensure that the length of the incision(s) is as short as possible; and that incisions are always in an inconspicuous place.

Liposuction Procedure

Afterward, fat is suctioned out until a nice contour is obtained. The number of fat cells decreases after treatment.

Step 4:

Liposuction permanently removes fat cells, altering the shape of the body. Fat that is suctioned out can be used for fat grafting to the face for rejuvenation or to the breast for augmentation.
