Which parts can be liposuctioned and which parts cannot be liposuctioned

Liposuction is a popular topic in cosmetic surgery nowadays. It can help people lose weight without doing exercise, which is really attractive to many people. However, not every part of our body is suitable for this surgery.

1. Facial liposuction

The cheeks, jaws, and zygomatic areas are where facial fat easily accumulates. Too much fat will make the face look fat, resembling a "full moon face", "inverted face", "dumpling face", etc., thus losing the beauty of the contours. Facial liposuction can remove local excess fat, turn a dumpling face into an oval face, and achieve the effect of becoming beautiful instantly.

2. Arm liposuction

Arms are one of the most common places where fat accumulates, and it mainly accumulates in the upper arms. And it is difficult to lose fat through exercise, massage or taking diet pills, so many beauty fans will choose arm liposuction to remove excess fat. Arm liposuction allows beauty lovers to wear tank tops or sleeveless shirts "unscrupulously" when summer comes, and wear whatever they want.

3. Back liposuction

Excessive back fat is often seen in beauty-conscious people who are generally obese, especially the excess fat on the shoulder blades. If arm fat is difficult to remove through exercise, then the back is even more difficult. Therefore, back liposuction is the only choice to remove excess back fat.

4. Waist and abdomen liposuction

Waist and abdomen liposuction surgery is to suck out the deep fat under the skin, leaving the superficial fat about 1 cm thick close to the surface skin. A large number of hypertrophic fat cells are sucked out, making the local fat layer very thin and the waistline thinner. As long as we pay more attention to diet and exercise more, there will be no problem. Liposuction will not affect your normal work and life.

5. Buttocks liposuction

The buttocks are the focal point of the body besides the breasts, and are also a symbol of vitality. However, due to the increase in office workers and computer users, many female friends are facing the situation of enlarged and deformed buttocks, which not only makes the body shape imperfect, but also is not conducive to health. Therefore, many beauty lovers choose buttocks liposuction to remove excess fat while shaping the buttocks as a whole to create a perfect buttocks.

6. Liposuction of the legs

The legs, like the waist and abdomen, are prone to fat accumulation, especially in the thighs. This will make the lower body look particularly heavy, which not only affects the appearance but also the health. When exercise is ineffective and diet pills are ineffective, beauty lovers will choose leg liposuction to change their "elephant legs" and create slender legs.

1. Areas that are relatively unsuitable for liposuction

The longitudinal area of ​​the anterior sheath of the rectus abdominis, the sacral triangle, the anterior thigh, the medial upper arm, the medial knee, the palmar and dorsal forearm, the anterior neck, the posterior calf, etc., all of these areas have important blood vessels and nerves passing through them, so special attention should be paid during surgery to avoid injury.

2. Areas where liposuction is absolutely not allowed

Groin area (with important structures such as femoral artery, femoral vein and femoral nerve), popliteal area (with popliteal artery, popliteal vein, branches and tibial nerve, etc.), patellar area (the subcutaneous tissue is too thin and not suitable for suction), gluteal fold area (the sciatic nerve passes through deep). In addition, although the result of liposuction is to reduce the volume of a certain part of the human body and thin the fat layer, it must be coordinated with other parts of the body. You can't just suck as much as you want or suck wherever you want. Before liposuction, the liposuction recipient should communicate and discuss in detail with the plastic surgeon to develop a comprehensive and detailed liposuction plan so that they have a "clear mind".

A very small incision is made on the surface of the skin, and swelling fluid is injected within the range determined before the operation to make the fat cells easier to be sucked out. Then a thin liposuction needle is inserted into the fat layer to suck out the fat.

1. Try to wear tights or elastic bandages after the operation, and get enough rest within one week after the operation.

2. Edema may occur after liposuction, which is normal and will subside after a period of time. You can apply cold compress to the local wound to reduce the pain and edema during the operation. However, be careful not to apply too much pressure to avoid local damage.

3. Pay special attention to diet. Do not eat spicy food, seafood or other irritating foods before you have fully recovered from the operation. Also avoid smoking and drinking.

4. If the liposuction area is uneven, the patient can massage the area frequently to alleviate this phenomenon, because massage can restore the skin after liposuction to a smooth and even effect. The skin will return to a flat state in about half a year.

5. Avoid taking a bath within one week after the operation to prevent the wound from coming into contact with water and causing inflammation, which may lead to adverse reactions.

6. If dryness occurs in the liposuction area, you can apply skin care cream to it to alleviate the dryness.
