Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgical procedures to remove stubborn fat pockets and to contour the body.

Liposuction is not a means for weight loss, but it helps to improve and shape the body. The ideal candidate is someone who is looking to remove stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to weight loss and exercise in order to improve body shape.

No, the procedure will not affect your ability to carry a healthy pregnancy; however, it may be advisable to postpone the procedure until after you have finished having your children, because future weight fluctuations and hormonal changes may affect the outcome of your Liposuction treatment.

Because liposuction is such a versatile procedure that may be used in such a variety of ways, naturally, the price of the procedure will vary between patients. Many factors will affect pricing, such as the size of the treatment area. The average cost of affordable liposuction may run between $2,000 and $5000. If your situation is more complex, low-cost liposuction might not be an available option. You can spend more than $8,000, depending on the area(s) being treated. If you need cheap liposuction and other treatments at the same time, you may save money as well as time by combining liposuction with other cosmetic procedures in a single treatment session.

Liposuction can be performed using a topical numbing agent or some form of local anesthesia with sedation in order to help patients relax and diminish any possibility of discomfort during the procedure. If large volume liposuction is performed or is combined with other procedures, general anesthesia is recommended.

Once fat cells are removed from the treatment area, they are gone for good. You may still gain weight in the area, because the remaining fat cells in the area may become enlarged, but typically the results of liposuction are considered permanent.
