Liposuction (liposculpture)

Sometimes, no matter how much you diet or exercise, stubborn pockets of fat persist. In men, this tends to occur around the abdomen, flanks (“love handles”), chest and chin.

As a result, more and more men are choosing to reshape these troublesome areas with liposuction. In fact, liposuction is one of the most common cosmetic procedures – and one of the most effective. Sculpting through liposuction can greatly improve your overall silhouette, eradicating those pesky bulges and making your clothes look and fit better.

Disproportionate deposits of fat that can be stubborn to remove can be corrected by liposuction. This minimally invasive surgical procedure will create better balance for your body and reduce the focus from that one area you can just not shift

Considering Liposuction?

There are some common questions that many people who are considering liposuction ask, such as:

Is it for me?

Liposuction is ideal for men with persistent pockets of fat that just won’t budge. Removing a small amount of fat can make a huge difference to your body.

However, liposuction shouldn’t be seen as a weight loss technique, as the weight of the fat removed is very small in relation to total body weight.

Dr Hunt meets with every potential patient individually to determine the surgery that will achieve the best possible results. During your consultation with Dr Hunt, he’ll explain liposuction surgery in detail, evaluate your suitability for the procedure, and answer any questions you may have.

What's involved?

Your liposuction will be performed in the hospital of your choice, under general anaesthetic administered by one of Dr Hunt’s preferred partners. Each of Dr Hunt’s anaethetists are highly experienced members of the Australian Society of Anaethetists.

Dr Hunt will perform either suction- or ultrasound-assisted lipectomy, as determined in your consultation, after making tiny incisions in the target areas. During this one to two hour process, your fat cells will be permanently removed.

When can I go home?

What will my post-operative care be?

How long will I be off work?

When can I resume my normal activities?

When you get home from hospital, you will need to limit your movements to around the house for the first few days. You’ll be wearing compression garments, which must not be removed during this time, and you should eat lightly and get plenty of fluids.

After three days you can shower and replace the compression garments, which should be worn continuously for two to three weeks, and then at night for a further two to three weeks. These garments help to define your new shape.

During the first three weeks after surgery, you mustn’t do any activities that increase your heart rate above 100 beats per minute. However, after six weeks, you can resume all exercise. Indeed, many people find that liposuction inspires a new, even healthier lifestyle.

When will I see the end result?
