Liposuction is the removal of fat deposits beneath the skin.
It uses a stainless steel hollow tube called cannula and with the help of a powerful vacuum, it sucks the fat out of the body.
Liposuction can be done using general anesthesia, heavy sedation or just by local anesthesia.
If you consider undergoing the said procedure, it has been said that you must only be 30% higher than your ideal body weight.
Liposuction is never a cure for obesity.
Liposuction prices depend on what part of the body the fat would be removed from and where the surgery would be done.
In the United States, the prices are way much higher than in India which is about 60% lower compared to the prices in US and in Europe.
