Revision as of 09:21, 15 June 2004 by JeanetteMartin (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Liposuction is a popular operation in plastic surgery which removes fat from certain places of the human body (typically abdomen, thighs, buttocks) by liquifying it and removing it through a hollow needle. In some cases, more extreme measures, such as abdominoplasty, may be needed.
An alternative is to liposuction is dieting and exercise. Since these techniques require more effort, some celebrities and other wealthy individuals prefer liposuction as a low-effort alternative. For example, the pop singer Stevie Nicks reportedly had 50 pounds of fat removed in one liposuction session.
Despite dieting efforts, some fat deposits may not respond to an individual's efforts at weight loss. In these cases, liposuction may be the only way to remove the unwanted fat.
