Kyle Richards, one of the stars of hit US reality show The Real Housewives of Beverley Hills, has spoken out over her Plastic Surgery procedures. The mother of four undertook liposuction last year as she couldn’t get rid of her love handles through diet and exercise alone. She had her first procedure, a nose job, […]
Whilst liposuction has been available for a number of years, liposculpture is a relatively newer term. So what, you may ask, is the difference, and what would be best for me? The truth is that there is very little difference, and if there is any it is subtle. Both are technically the same procedure as […]

VASER Versus Traditional Liposuction Recently there have been many advances in liposuction surgery which offer significant advantages over the traditional liposuction techniques. Liposuction was first invented in France and in its early stages used wide bore suction cannulas and no infiltration of the tissue prior to liposuction. The fluid that is infiltrated into the area […]
Some clear trends in Cosmetic Surgery were apparent when The British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons (BAAPS) released the UK’s 2010 statistics this week. Despite the recession, there are more cosmetic surgery procedures being carried out in the UK than ever: a 5% increase on the previous year. But whilst some procedures are clearly on […]
The terms Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Surgery are often used interchangeably or cause confusion: many people in the UK think that Plastic Surgery is just the American term, when in fact it is a completely different field. When looking into procedures to change the way you look, it is important to get the basic terminology […]
Do you think nip/tuck is only for women? Think again because there are many options available for men and becoming increasingly popular in the UK. Here are some statistics to start with: The top cosmetic surgery procedures for men in 2007 include liposuction, rhinoplasty, eyelid surgery, male breast reduction, and facelift. The top non-surgical procedures for […]
2011 is the year of the war on obesity. So the big buzz in Cosmetic Surgery is Fat Removal procedures: “We’re talking freezing fat, zapping fat, melting fat away, as well as vacuuming fat from places where it is plentiful (thighs, tummy and love handles)”, says Denise Mann (ed. Ceatus Cosmetic Surgery Group). This comes […]
There are various different approaches to Liposuction used by Surgeons, but VASER has some major advantages over the traditional technique. In VASER Liposuction, ultrasound energy is used to disperse the fatty tissue in the affected area. The ultrasound energy causes the fatty acids to dissolve and release the contained fatty tissue. This emulsified fatty tissue is […]
The main types of Liposuction available currently are VASER Liposuction, Smart Lipo, power assisted Liposuction, and water assisted Liposuction. In each of these techniques the fatty tissue is removed by suction through hollow tubes (cannulas). The difference is in how the fatty tissue is treated prior to it being sucked out. In VASER Liposuction an ultrasound […]
Could Liposuction be the right treatment for you? Well, the answer really depends on your specific case. Let’s start by saying this – Liposuction is not the cure for excess weight. Generally if you are overweight, particularly if your body mass index is over 30, Liposuction is not the treatment for you. You need to address your […]
Scarring for Liposuction is usually very minimal and we tend to advise people that it will usually fade to a very small pale scar. Generally for each area that has Liposuction two small incisions will be required. In some cases three will be needed. This is because to achieve a flat result it is best […]
Generally the maximum amount of fatty tissue that I recommend be removed during liposuction is 5 litres of fatty tissue. This corresponds to approximately 5 kilograms of fat. The reason I do not recommend removal of more tissue than this is that it can cause disturbances to the fluid balance in the body and serious complications […]
Many surgeons do perform liposuction with tummy tuck surgery. In our opinion this is safe – as long as the liposuction is not performed extensively to the upper tummy. This is because this is the area through which the blood travels to the lower part of the tummy skin and liposuction can jeopardise this. We […]
