Liposuction
Liposuction Surgery in Ludhiana
If you’ve been struggling with stubborn fat that won’t go away despite diet and exercise, liposuction surgery can help you achieve a more sculpted and proportionate figure. At Dr. Nitin Sethi’s Plastic Surgery Clinic in Ludhiana, we combine advanced surgical techniques with artistic precision to redefine your body safely and effectively. Our goal is simple — to help you look and feel your confidence best through proven, medically safe fat-removal procedures.
Liposuction surgery is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove unwanted fat from targeted areas of the body. It’s ideal for individuals who are close to their ideal weight but have localized fat deposits in areas such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, or chin. It’s not a weight-loss treatment but a body-contouring solution that enhances shape and proportion.
Dr. Nitin Sethi, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Ludhiana, specializes in liposuction treatment using internationally approved techniques that prioritize safety, precision, and long-term results.
How Liposuction Surgery Is Performed?
The liposuction process at Dr. Nitin Sethi’s clinic follows a meticulous, patient-focused protocol designed for safety and optimal contouring.
1. Consultation and Evaluation
Every journey begins with a detailed consultation. Dr. Sethi assesses your health, skin elasticity, and fat distribution to determine your suitability for surgery. He discusses your aesthetic goals and helps you choose the right technique—traditional tumescent liposuction or laser liposuction, depending on your needs.
2. Anaesthesia and Preparation
The procedure is usually performed under local anaesthesia with sedation or general anaesthesia, depending on the extent of treatment. Before surgery, a special fluid called tumescent solution is injected into the treatment area. This helps minimize bleeding, swelling, and discomfort during and after surgery.
3. Fat Removal
Tiny, discreet incisions (2–4 mm) are made in the treatment area. Through these, a thin hollow tube called a cannula is inserted. Using controlled back-and-forth movements, Dr. Sethi carefully loosens and removes excess fat through gentle suction. The amount of fat removed depends on your anatomy and goals, ensuring balanced and natural-looking results.
For certain patients, laser liposuction may be used. This technique employs laser energy to liquefy fat cells before suctioning them out, promoting smoother contours and aiding in mild skin tightening.
4. Sculpting and Closure
Once the desired contour is achieved, Dr. Sethi refines the treated areas to ensure smoothness and symmetry. The tiny incisions are either closed with fine sutures or left to heal naturally, leaving minimal visible scarring.
5. Recovery and Aftercare
After surgery, a compression garment is applied to reduce swelling and support your new contours. You may experience mild bruising and soreness, which usually subside within a week. Most patients return to light activities within a few days, with full recovery in two to four weeks.
Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions and scheduled follow-ups to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
