Or liposuction is a technique which removes unwanted fat deposits in specific areas of the body that generate an alteration in the body contour.Liposuction is not a substitute for losing weight but an effective method for removing localized fat that is unresponsive to dieting and exercise.|

The best candidates are those people who have a relatively normal weight but excess fat in specific areas of the body.
If the patient has a firm and elastic skin, he/she will get better results in the body contour.
A metal suction canula is inserted into very small incisions in specific areas to be treated, and such canula is connected to a suction pump which removes the fat deposit to be corrected.

The procedure is performed out patiently under anesthetic sedation and requires the use of a compression garment during the post-operative period for about 40 or 60 days.

Haematomas and edema in the surgical area are esperables in this type of intervention that are solved spontaneously in the space of 30 days.
