Liposuction
Committing to a good diet and regular exercise routine is essential to maintaining a fit, toned figure. However, eating right and working out aren’t always enough. Your body is genetically predisposed to store fat in certain areas.
If you’re struggling with stubborn pockets of fat that remain resistant to diet and exercise, liposuction may be the right solution to help you attain the beautifully sculpted body contour you desire.
Liposuction in Nanaimo and Victoria
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes unwanted fat deposits from specific areas of the body and face, such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, upper arms, cheeks, neck, and chin. The procedure is performed using a cannula (a thin, hollow tube) that is inserted through a small incision in the skin and is used to suction out the excess fat.
Liposuction was approved for cosmetic use in 1982. Since then, it has become one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures worldwide.
