How much fat can be removed?
Amount of fat removal varies from case to case and need in the patient. 60 to 70% of local fat below the skin can be removed. If more fat is removed, then, there will be rippling and dimple formation. Skin will hang. In one sitting, 1 to 5 Kg of fat may be removed safely. Depending upon number of sites from which fat is to be removed, one requires number of sittings. These number of sittings can be decided. These fat cells which are removed do not grow later on.
How much fat can be extracted during one session of liposuction is debatable. Some doctors decide the safe amount of fat to be removed on a patient-by-patient basis while others determine fat outtake on whether the surgery will be performed in a hospital, where there is greater access to emergency assistance. In addition, some states have rules on how much fat can be extracted in ambulatory setting, such as a freestanding surgical unit or a surgeon’s office. Excessive Liposuction (the removal of more than a few pounds of fat) is considered dangerous at any rate. Fatalities have occurred because of the removal of too much fat. These deaths are rare but still occur occasionally. Thus stating, the more fat that is removed creates a greater the risk to the patient. Please remember, liposuction is not a weight-loss surgery. It is a surgery to remove a few recalcitrant pockets of fat that resist diet and exercise. The average amount of fat removed today is below 10 lb. Technically speaking,
