• Basic Dimensions

  For the most part, liposuction does not come with any specific size requirements; however, normal-weight individuals with pockets of excess fat, solid and elastic make for the best liposuction patients.

• Overall Health

  The best liposuction candidate is healthy. Patients who suffer from a chronic disease such as: lung disease, heart disease, diabetes or poor blood circulation may have to pass a comprehensive physical examination. Both young and old people have been found to have experienced liposuction successfully.

• Emotionally Stable

  When plastic surgeons assess prospective patients for a lipoplasty, they look for candidates who are psychologically stable. A person with unrealistic expectations is generally not ideal for the procedure. However, people who are looking to improve both their appearance and self-confidence make for the ultimate liposuction candidates.

Various Types and Techniques of Liposuction

With the groundbreaking advancements in plastic surgery, liposuction includes a variation of procedures. To provide precise results, surgeons can select from one of the following liposuction techniques:

• Ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL)
• The tumescent technique
• Super-wet technique

Basic Benefits of Liposuction

While liposuction should not be a substitution for a well-balanced diet and fitness regimen, liposuction does wonders on stubborn areas of fat that are unresponsive to a traditional weight management program.
