 after  before | Liposuction is one of today’s most popularly sought cosmetic surgery procedures. It is used to remove excess fatty tissue from areas around the thighs, knees, buttocks, waist, hips, abdomen, chin, cheeks, neck, and upper arms. During the procedure, surgeons use a small, stainless steel tube, called a cannula, and a powerful suction pump to create tiny tunnels through layers of fatty tissue. After surgery, these tunnels collapse, resulting in improved body contour. While the procedure is not a substitute for healthy diet and exercise, it can help to alleviate trouble areas that are unresponsive to typical weight-loss methods.
