Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that we're pleased to now offer here at Victoria House Clinic. It's a surgical procedure that aims to remove excess deposits of fat that are unwanted in various areas of the body. Those areas could be the abdomen, thighs, hips or arms. It helps tone and sculpt the body whilst effectively targeting areas of stubborn fat.

- You find it difficult to lose weight in areas where there is stubborn fat deposits

Liposuction Procedure
Liposuction is a surgical procedure whereby the surgeon will make a small incision into the targeted area using a surgical blade. The surgeon will then look to insert a cannula which will work as a vacuum to extract any of the excess, unwanted fat. Once the excess fat is removed from the area the doctor will close the stitches.
This procedure is done under sedation, on a day basis and typically takes a couple of hours to complete. Following the surgery you will be taken into our onsite recovery room where you will be monitored by our Nurse and allowed to rest before being free to go home on the same day.
