Get Shapelier Legs With Liposuction

Every woman yearns to have smooth, shapely legs that look great in bathing suits

, shorts, and skirts. Yet, despite diet, exercise, and hard work, many women still cant get rid of that unwanted fat and cellulite plaguing their hips and thighs. Aging and pregnancy can further frustrate the process making it all the more harder for a woman to achieve those shapely legs. Liposuction is a routine cosmetic procedure that thousands of women have used to achieve sexier legs.

Liposuction removes excess fat and smoothes the skin for shapelier hips, legs, and thighs. It is an outpatient procedure, which means it can be performed in your doctors office and you can return home the same day. During liposuction, small incisions are made and subcutaneous fat is removed using a cannula (thin tube). A tumescent solution controls bleeding and anesthetizes the area of fat removal. The length of the procedure depends on the amount and areas of fat removal.

Liposuction should not be used as a weight management tool. Individuals who are more than 30 percent of their recommended body weight should consult with a medical professional to lose weight before undergoing liposuction. Individuals preparing for liposuction should be sure to have a complete personal consultation with their surgeon to review the procedure, expectations, and discuss any medications. For instance, if you smoke or take aspirin you should abstain from these prior to undergoing surgery. Talk to your physician about these and any other details.

The downtime following liposuction is fairly minimal. You should expect some bruising and swelling as well as some drainage at the incision sites. Some discomfort may present until the bruising and swelling subsides and is easily managed with pain medication. To aid healing and help the body fill into its smoother contour you will need to wear a compression garment after surgery. Generally, the compression garments are worn for a week, or more if needed, after surgery.

Initial results after liposuction can be seen in the first month and results generally continue to improve over the next couple of months. Liposuction provides positive, long-lasting results and patients can expect to enjoy long term success provided they maintain a healthy lifestyle of proper diet and exercise.

Patients who were pleased with liposuction may also be interested in more advanced body contouring procedures. Some of the more popular advanced body contouring procedures include breast implants, tummy tuck, and buttock augmentation (butt lift). Talk to your cosmetic surgeon about additional options available to you.
