Liposuction for Thighs & Knees
Liposuction for Thighs & Knees
Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty or body contouring, is a minimally invasive surgical procedure designed to remove unwanted fat deposits from specific areas of the body. In the case of Liposuction for Thighs or Knees, the procedure targets the excess fat tissue that accumulates around the thighs and knees, resulting in a more proportionate and slimming appearance.
During the Liposuction for Thighs or Knees procedure, patients are typically placed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Your surgeon will then make several small incisions in the area to be treated and insert a thin, hollow tube called a cannula. Using a controlled back-and-forth motion, the cannula is utilized to break up and suction out the excess fat cells, sculpting a more slender and appealing contour in the process.
Depending on the specific technique used and the extent of the procedure, Liposuction for Thighs or Knees may take anywhere from one to several hours to complete. Once the desired level of fat removal has been achieved, your surgeon will carefully close the incisions using sutures or adhesive strips.
