Detailed explanation-1: -Liposuction. Liposuction, or suction-assisted lipectomy, was initially developed as a surgical procedure for improving body contours. In this procedure, a small metal cannula connected to a vacuum machine is inserted in the subcutaneous tissue and used to remove extra fat tissue with a sweeping motion.
Detailed explanation-2: -Liposuction is particularly effective at removing fat in the legs, abdomen, back, arms, face, and neck. It provides more dramatic results than other noninvasive fat reduction procedures, however, it has a longer recovery period (up to six weeks) and typically costs more than its nonsurgical counterparts.
Detailed explanation-3: -Abdominoplasty is well known as a tummy tuck, while a lower body lift is also referred to as a belt lipectomy. A lower body lift is used to remove fat and excess skin from all the way around the body like a belt at the level of the underwear line, not just the abdomen.
