Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty or “lipo,” is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body to improve body contours and proportions.

It is a cosmetic surgery technique used to enhance aesthetic appearance by targeting localized fat pockets that may be resistant to diet and exercise.

During liposuction, a thin tube called a cannula is inserted through small incisions, and suction is applied to remove unwanted fat, resulting in a more sculpted and refined appearance.
