If a person has more than their fair share of body bulges and bumps, they might want to consider eliminating their lumpiness with liposuction. If there's one item of clothing that calls for a slim and trim physique, it's the swimsuit. When you don a bathing suit, every square inch of flesh is either visible or barely contained with a bit of fabric. If the thought of baring it all publicly causes a mild panic attack, time to give your figure a...more
There seems to be a trend surfacing to have a few cosmetic surgeries in one sitting. This could include liposuction and other procedures or liposuction in more than one area of the body. There has been a high debate about whether this surgical trend is safe or not. Of course, it is remarkably expensive to have more than one procedure at once but putting the price aside, there are some definite risks with any surgery that are only increased when...more
Liposuction is quite a change for some people. Differing opinions and women feeling the need to feel better about their bodies when men often do not share the same tendencies can create friction if your spouse doesn't feel that you necessarily need to have this procedure done. This is sweet in principle but hard in real life when a woman feels she would like liposuction in order to feel and look her very best. Instead of allowing this tension to get worse and affect your relationship in a negative way, make sure the doors of communication are wide open for you and your partner to discuss options.A common phrase for men who are satisfied with how their partners look is "but you don't need it!". When women stress about make-up or getting the right haircut or outfit, men are often inclined to emphasize that their partner looks just fine without anything fancy. While this is encouraging because that means your partner loves you for who you are and not what you look like, it can become a point of tension when a woman wants to undergo liposuction. A healthy woman who wants to rid herself of some fat deposits that simply can't be worked away should feel comfortable exploring the option of...more

When getting liposuction, it is safest to use only local anesthesia in which the affected area is numbed. Using general (or systematic) anesthesia is not...more

Now, learning what can actually make you happy is a necessary...more
Liposuction (also known as lipoplasty and suction lipectomy) is an extremely popular cosmetic surgery which is used to physically remove fat from specific target areas on a patient's body. The surgery was developed sometime around the 1970's, but the techniques have been honed and altered since that time.Lipoplasty is a surgery which enjoys a fairly unique degree of popularity. In the United States alone, hundreds of thousands of lipectomies are performed every year. In the United States, this surgery has ranked as the number one most popular cosmetic surgery for twelve out of the past thirteen years.Part of the surgery's widespread popularity is due to its high level of adaptability. Unlike many other cosmetic surgeries, which can only be performed on a specific body area such as the nose or the breasts, a lipoplasty can be performed just about anywhere there is excess fat. The surgery can furthermore typically be performed under local anesthesia, unlike the general anesthetic which many other surgeries require.Prior to the surgery, the patient and the surgeon meet. They discuss topics such as the patient's medical history and the patient's goals, and they discuss which target...more
