What is Liposuction?
Looking fit is a must for anyone wanting to look young and healthy. For some people, it can be a great challenge to lose stubborn fat even after strict dieting and workout regimens. Luckily, liposuction is a suction method that can be done to almost all parts of the face and body to get rid of unpleasant-looking and disproportionately fatty areas.
Liposuction can be an ideal solution for patients looking to lose weight fast but are willing to continue to follow a healthy lifestyle after the procedure to enjoy their results in the long run.
Suitability
You are an ideal candidate for liposuction if you:
Have stubborn fat that does not respond to diet or exercise
Would like to look more toned and fit
Want to improve your body proportions
Want to look more approachable and presentable
Wish to improve your confidence
Are healthy and at a stable weight
Have done your research on the procedure and the possible risks
Recovery
Recovery periods vary from patient to patient. Most patients require around 4 to 6 weeks for recovery. You may return back to a desk job after 1-2 weeks and resume other activities after at least 6 weeks. You will have to wear your compression garment during recovery. Residual swelling will subside after 3 months. Your surgeon will prepare a customized post-operative recovery plan based on your procedure and needs.
Aftercare
As the Voila health care team, we will ensure that you have gone through all the necessary health checkups before your surgery, and always be there for you during recovery to ensure you feel your best the whole time.
Aftercare is as important as the surgery itself when it comes to boosting the effects of the procedure.
Make sure you keep yourself propped up with multiple pillows while lying down or sleeping.
Swelling is expected but it will start to go down after day 2 and 3, which are the most challenging. If necessary, your doctor may prescribe you painkillers.
Patience is key. A better you is on the way!
