Summary
Liposculpture is a modern and refined form of liposuction designed to reshape specific areas of the body by removing stubborn fat. Using the VASER-assisted tumescent technique, the procedure is both gentle and precise, offering a smoother recovery with fewer complications than traditional methods.
It is not a solution for weight loss, nor is it suitable for treating cellulite, but it can significantly improve body contours when diet and exercise fall short. Ideal candidates are those with good skin elasticity and small, defined areas of fat to be treated. A thorough consultation ensures that your expectations and safety are prioritised.
