Liposuction has recently become one of the most sought after plastic surgery procedures. It effectively removes fat that cannot be lost by diet or exercise. In addition, the fat cells that are removed are gone forever. Most people have at least some areas of fat on their bodies that just will not to go away no matter how hard they diet and exercise. This is a common complaint. The fact is, both men and women have characteristic fat areas that do not seem to go away. In men, these areas tend to be around the abdomen and the love handles. In women, fat accumulation tends to occur on the hips, flanks, thighs, and, to a lesser extent, abdomen. These are the areas where Liposuction works best.
Even though Liposuction removes fat, it is best performed on people who are not markedly overweight. The ideal candidates are the people who are within 2 to 3 stone of their ideal body weight and have localised areas of fat. Liposuction can, and often is, used to treat multiple areas. It is not uncommon to do the abdomen, hips, flanks, and thighs all at one time.
Liposuction works best on people who have skin that is healthy and able to stretch back when the fat is removed. People who have poor skin, which usually includes the elderly, or have a lot of fat to be removed from one area will not receive an outstanding result. They will certainly benefit, but because their skin is incapable of stretching back exactly where it should, it may not resume the ideal contour of the body. In these cases, it is sometimes necessary for some skin to be removed. This is often the case when there is a significant amount of loose skin within the abdomen. Often, Liposuction alone is inadequate and an abdominoplasty might be necessary.
Other areas that can benefit from Liposuction include: the arms, breasts, calves, knees, and area under the chin. These areas, however, do not respond quite as well as those mentioned above. Liposuction, especially ultrasonic Liposuction, may help cellulite somewhat but do not expect dramatic improvements, as cellulite remains a difficult problem to treat.
Liposuction is performed by first infiltrating the desired fat to be removed with a special fluid. Then, a small suction cannula is inserted through tiny incisions to remove the fat.
botonics has extensive experience with Liposuction and body contouring. Safety is the number one concern. This is why we limit the amount of fat to be removed to 5000 cc's. If more fat needs to be removed, it can be done more safely as a second procedure. Removing greater volume subjects the client to risks that can not be justified for a cosmetic procedure.
Many people wonder if the fat that is removed during Liposuction will return. The answer to this is NO. Fat that is removed is gone forever. The reason for this is that after adolescence, humans lose the ability to make new fat cells. Obviously, the fat cells that remain after Liposuction can significantly expand. Fat removal from Liposuction is a permanent solution to only the areas operated on. There is a problem, however, when a person who has had Liposuction in one area gains a significant amount of weight. This additional weight accumulates in the areas other than where Liposuction was performed. This can create contour irregularities. This can be corrected by either weight reduction or Liposuction in those areas that have gained fat.

What is liposuction?
Liposuction, which is sometimes also known as lipo, is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of excessive fat from various parts of the body. Lipo is a major undertaking and as such can produce dramatic improvements to the body when the process has been completed.
The actual surgical fat removal procedure entails the insertion of various small tubes into the fatty deposits of the body. These tubes then allow for the suction of fat from the body, down the tubes and out of the body using a suction or vacuum procedure.
The most common parts of the body for lipo treatments are usually the stomach, legs and upper body.
Fat removal is available in clinics all across the country and some of the most exclusive treatment centres offer liposuction surgery in London, Nottingham and other large cities.
Who should consider lipo and fat removal procedures?
Often, for those wishing to lose weight, exercise and diet can be the first and usually the most important lifestyle choices. However, frequently these undertakings alone cannot always guarantee that fat removal will be fully successful. For those individuals who struggle to diminish those fatty areas, lipo can be a viable option. It is generally recommended that liposuction fat removal should not be used as a method of treatment for obesity or for the management of cellulite.
When opting for fat removal surgery it is important to choose a reputable surgeon. Harley Street for instance offers liposuction surgery in London, a place where medical excellence can be easily found.
What is smart lipo?
Smart lipo (often referred to as laser lipo) is a revolutionary new method of liposuction, which is increasingly replacing the more traditional methods of fat removal. This method of fat removal tends to be less invasive than normal liposuction treatments. A small laser is inserted into the fatty areas and in effect, melts the body fat. This melted fat is then expelled from the body via the functions of the bloodstream and liver and allows for the more gradual and gentle removal of the fatty deposits.
At botonics we can offer this new smart or laser liposuction surgery in London from our Harley Street premises.
