What is liposuction?

Our guide to liposuction, the cosmetic surgery that 'sucks' fat from various parts of the body. We take a look at what it involves, together with the risks involved with the surgery.

Risks of liposuction

Any major surgery carries a risk of bleeding, infection, and an adverse reaction to anesthesia. The risk of complications is usually associated with how large the procedure is, as well as the surgeon's skills and specific training. The following risks, unpleasant side effects, or complications are possible:

• Bad bruising.
• Inflammation - the swelling in some cases may take up to 6 months to settle. Sometimes fluid may continue to ooze from the incisions.
• Thrombophlebitis - a blood clot forms in a vein, causing inflammation of that vein.
• Contour irregularities - if the patient has poor skin elasticity, has healed in an unusual way, or fat removal has been uneven, the skin may appear withered, wavy, or bumpy.
• Numbness - the area that was worked on may feel numb for a while; this is usually only temporary.
• Infections - although rare, skin infections may occur after liposuction surgery. Sometimes this needs to be treated surgically, with the risk of scarring.
• Internal organ punctures - this is very rare.
• Death - anesthesia carries with it a small risk of death.
• Kidney or heart problems - as fluids are being injected and or suctioned, the change in the body's fluid levels may cause kidney or heart problems.
• Pulmonary embolism - fat gets into the blood vessels and travels to the lungs, blocking the circulation in the lungs; this can be life-threatening.
• Pulmonary edema - this may be a result of fluid being injected into the body. Fluid accumulates in the lungs.
• Allergic reaction - there may be an allergic reaction to medications or material used during surgery.
• Skin burns - the cannula movement may cause friction burns to the skin or nerves.
