Liposuction is a surgical method of removing unwanted body fat and improving body shape. Localised areas of fat from anywhere on the body can be sucked out under pressure, with fatty areas on the tummy, flanks, and thighs being popular targets. Fat cells are permanently removed, so the process can improve the figure in the long term, with regained weight usually being spread generally over the body.

Traditional Liposuction removes bits of solid fat from under the skin, which can result in an irregular contour. The loose skin can fall into the peaks and troughs of the fatty layer below, giving a lumpy, cellulite appearance to the skin. This is a particular problem in skins that have lost their elasticity due to age or sun damage.

Bella Vou is proud to offer two innovative procedures that have revolutionised Liposuction:

VASERlipo™ is an advanced body sculpting procedure that turns solid fat into liquid fat, getting rid of lumps and irregularities. The suction device is used to remove the liquefied fat and reshape the area. The radiofrequency waves can tighten the skin and stimulate collagen production.

Renuvion skin tightening is often performed at the same time as VASERlipo™. The device uses plasma energy to contract the small ligaments and bands that hold the skin to the muscle, tightening the skin against the muscles below. Bella Vou also offers BodyTite, an advanced procedure that simultaneously reduces fat and tightens skin, permanently.

Together the procedures create a slim, toned, smooth appearance that far exceeds the results that you can get from traditional Liposuction.

Sometimes stubborn areas of fat do not shift, despite a healthy diet and exercise. Saddlebags, muffin tops, fatty inner thighs, and cankles can all be frustratingly difficult to manage with lifestyle changes alone. Liposuction can safely remove fat from specific areas, redefining and reshaping the body.

In men, VASER Liposculpture is excellent for slimming and streamlining the torso, giving an athletic six-pack appearance. In women, the longer abdominals can be defined and the waist nipped in to provide a more hourglass shape. VASER Liposculpture can also reshape the bottom and slim the flanks and thighs.

Liposuction is not a method of weight loss, but it can remove stubborn areas of fat and recontour the body.

VASERlipo™ is performed under local anaesthetic, sedation and general anaesthetic, depending on the size of the area being treated.

The expert cosmetic surgeon will make tiny incisions in the skin creases so that any scarring is minimal. They will insert a thin cannula that uses ultrasound to heat and liquefy the fat. The surgeon will then remove the fat using a gentle suction device.

The VASER device emits radiofrequency waves that tighten the surrounding tissues and skin giving you smooth, slim contours with less pain or recovery time than traditional Liposuction.

Your recovery from VASERlipo™ will depend on the area treated and your general health and wellbeing. Bella Vou will provide a bespoke plan of aftercare, massage, and rehabilitation to support your recovery.

You should take at least 2-5 days off work and other daily activities to allow your body to recuperate from the surgery and begin the process of healing. Some people may experience mild discomfort for a week after surgery.
