What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, and flanks. It’s ideal for individuals who are close to their ideal weight but have stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise.

The procedure enhances body contours and can be combined with other treatments to achieve a more sculpted, toned appearance. Liposuction is not a weight-loss solution but is perfect for targeting specific fat pockets.

During your free consultation, our expert surgeons will assess your goals and provide a tailored treatment plan.

What Happens During Surgery?

Liposuction is typically performed under local or general anaesthesia, and the procedure involves:

1. Small Incisions:
Tiny incisions are made in the treatment area.

2. Fat Removal:
A thin tube (cannula) is inserted to loosen and suction fat cells.

3. Contouring:
The surgeon sculpts and smooths the area to ensure natural, flattering results.

4. Closure:
Incisions are sealed, and compression garments are applied to reduce swelling.

Liposuction can be performed on multiple areas in one session, depending on the extent of treatment.

Is Liposuction Right for Me?

Liposuction is an ideal choice for individuals struggling with stubborn fat pockets that don’t respond to diet or exercise. It is suitable for those who are in good health and close to their ideal body weight. It’s important to have realistic expectations about the results, as liposuction helps sculpt and shape the body, but it’s not a weight loss solution.
Liposuction offers several benefits, starting with improved body shape, giving you more defined and smoother contours. Many patients experience enhanced confidence, especially when wearing clothes and swimwear. Compared to more invasive surgeries, liposuction offers a quicker recovery time. The procedure also allows for targeted fat removal, ensuring a personalized outcome tailored to your unique body shape.
Though liposuction is generally safe, potential risks exist. Scarring is minimal, with small scars usually hidden in inconspicuous areas that fade over time. Swelling and bruising are common side effects but will diminish as you heal. While rare, infections or bleeding can occur but are easily managed with proper care. Uneven results, such as minor asymmetry or lumps, may require adjustments. Some temporary changes in sensation, such as numbness or tingling in the treated areas, can occur but usually resolve over time.

Patient Reviews

I recently underwent surgery with transform & I cannot fault them 1 bit, there care, compassion, understanding and support have been amazing, every member if staff from the receptionists, co ordinators, nurses pre & post op to my aneasatist, surgeon & theatre staff have all been amazing, professional & so friendly. In all honesty I thought once my operation was done I wouldn't really hear from transform again however within a couple of days I was contacted to be checked on & have had regular weekly appointments to have my dressings checked and changed. If I hadn't of promised my partner that I won't have any more surgeries then I'd definitely use transform again! Fantastic journey from start to finish & the results from my surgeon Dr Hazem Alfie were fantastic, amazing neat lines I can't wait to show of my new body in summer

    Having lost quite a lot of weight a few years earlier, she decided that if she managed to keep it off, she would have surgery to remove all the excess skin that the weight loss had left.
