Liposuction is a common and popular cosmetic fat reduction surgery that removes excess fat and fat cells to enhance body shape and contour.
What is Liposuction Treatment?
Liposuction in Dubai is a popular cosmetic procedure designed to eliminate stubborn fat deposits that cannot be effectively reduced through lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise. This transformative treatment aims to enhance body shape and contour, giving you the confidence and satisfaction you deserve.
Also known as lipoplasty or body contouring, liposuction targets specific areas of the body where excess fat tends to accumulate. These areas often include the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, neck, and arms. By precisely removing the unwanted fat, liposuction helps create a more harmonious and proportionate appearance.
In some cases, liposuction in Dubai can be combined with other cosmetic procedures such as breast reduction or a tummy tuck to achieve optimal results. Our skilled plastic surgeons will assess your unique needs and recommend the best approach to help you attain your desired outcome.
It’s important to note that liposuction may not be suitable for everyone. If you are dealing with severe overweight or obesity and struggle with weight loss, our experienced plastic surgeon will evaluate your condition and determine whether localized fat removal treatments like liposuction or other bariatric procedures are more appropriate for you.

Who Needs Liposuction?
When it comes to addressing unwanted fat, liposuction in Dubai offers an effective solution. Understanding who can benefit from this procedure involves assessing different factors, including the type of fat and the condition of the skin. Our skilled plastic surgeons thoroughly evaluate these aspects to determine if liposuction is the right choice for you.
Firstly, our best liposuction surgeons in Dubai assess the subcutaneous fat, which is the stubborn fat layer located between your skin and muscles. This type of fat is difficult to lose through traditional methods. Additionally, they evaluate the integrity and elasticity of your skin to determine how it will respond after fat removal, ensuring that your results are satisfactory.
Good candidates for liposuction in Dubai typically meet the following conditions:
- Have excessive body fat but a stable weight (within 30% of your normal weight)
- Healthy adults without any chronic or life-threatening medical conditions that may risk healing
- People with good skin and muscle tone
- Individuals who are positive in their outlook and have specific body contouring goals
- Committed to following a healthy lifestyle after the procedure
How Does Liposuction in Dubai Work?
When you visit a plastic surgeon for a consultation for iposuction, you must inform them about any medical conditions you have, medications or supplements you are currently taking, and history of cosmetic treatment undergone in the past. Your doctor will understand your goals and expectations from cosmetic treatment and perform a thorough clinical evaluation to determine if Liposuction is good for you.
After preoperative formalities on the day of the procedure, you will be taken to the operation theatre. Depending upon the extent of the area that needs to undergo Liposuction, your doctor will give you local or general anaesthesia.
The surgeon uses a cannula connected to a negative suction machine via a hollow tube to remove the fat. Once the required amount of fat has been removed, the incisions are closed and covered with gauze.
You may require pressure garments in your post-operative treatment. Post-treatment instructions will be provided.


How Can You Prepare For Your Liposuction?
Before you come for your Liposuction appointment, your doctor will provide you with a few preparatory instructions to help you achieve the desired results. Here are some instructions to follow while preparing for your Liposuction treatment:
- You may need to undergo a full-body checkup to ensure all your parameters are normal and it is safe to administer general anaesthesia to you during the procedure.
- Stop anticoagulant medications after checking with your physician.
- Ensure your blood sugar and blood pressure levels are under control.
- Stop taking any nutritional supplements or other medications that may interfere with the procedure or create a risk of complications.
Ask your family member or friend to accompany you and drive you back home as you will still be under some effect of anaesthesia.

- Overall health and healing of the individual

Frequently Asked Questions
How long will I take to recover after a Liposuction procedure?
What precautions do I need to take after Liposuction?
Some post-treatment instructions that you will need to follow after a Liposuction procedure are:
- Avoid exercising
- Do not drink alcohol before or after the procedure until complete healing.
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle and try not to gain weight
- Stay away from high-sodium foods.
When can I see the results of the Liposuction treatment?
Depending on several factors, most people will be able to see initial results almost immediately. However, you will be able to see the complete results of the treatment about six to eight months after the procedure.
How long do I need to wear a compression garment following a Liposuction procedure?
The surgeon may recommend wearing a pressure or compression garment for some people. You may need to wear it full time for two weeks, followed by half the day for the next four weeks.
Is Liposuction a safe procedure?
Liposuction is a highly safe, non-invasive procedure routinely performed in cosmetic clinics and hospitals. If you are said to undergo Liposuction, always ensure you are getting it done by a board-certified, well-trained and experienced plastic surgeon under local or general anaesthesia in the presence of an anaesthetist.
Is Liposuction a weight loss treatment?
Liposuction is often mistaken for a weight-loss treatment when it is a fat reduction procedure. Fat removal does cause weight reduction, but the goal of this treatment is to shape and contour the body to enhance your figure.
