Liposuction, or ‘lipo’ as it is sometimes known, is a cosmetic procedure used to remove unwanted body fat.

Liposuction, or ‘Lipo’ as it is sometimes known, is a surgical cosmetic procedure used to remove unwanted, stubborn fat from different areas of the body. Generally, a cannula is inserted into the body and the fat is broken up before being extracted. This results in a more contoured and toned appearance.
Regardless of the specific technique, Liposuction is a safe and effective procedure for reducing stubborn areas of fat with long term results. Although non-surgical alternatives are appealing due to the minimal downtime and the lower risk of scarring, they are not suitable to treat all concerns and may not have the same comprehensive results.
Our founder, Mr Bryan Mayou introduced Liposuction to the UK 40 years ago, and has been at the forefront of its development ever since. As well as new types of Liposuction, new procedures have been introduced which have evolved the scope of what is possible using fat removal options.
There are a number of different kinds of Liposuction which are suited to different areas of the body and are used for different reasons. Your surgeon will discuss the options with you during your consultation and will make recommendations based on your individual concerns and desired results
Lipo works by sucking out small areas of stubborn fat that are not responding to diet and exercise. It is carried out on areas of the body where deposits of fat tend to collect, such as the buttocks, hips, thighs and stomach.
The procedure is carried out under general anaesthetic. The surgeon will mark out on the body the areas of fat to be removed. They then inject this area with a solution containing anaesthetic and medicine, to reduce blood loss, bruising and swelling. The fat cells are broken up, the surgeon makes a small incision and a suction tube attached to a vacuum machine is placed in the cut. The tube is moved back and forth to loosen the fat and suck it out. Excess fluid and blood is drained and the treated area is stitched and bandaged. The whole process usually takes between one and three hours.
You can lose a few pounds or kilos of weight with liposuction. However, Liposuction is not a weight loss surgery and is intended to remove small areas of stubborn fat, and contour the body. Maintaining a healthy diet after the procedure is essential to help keep this new shape.
