Lipoplasty (Liposuction) Sydney
About the treatment
Even after reaching your desired weight, isolated pockets of fat can remain around different areas of the body. While it is crucial to maintain a healthy lifestyle, these stubborn subcutaneous fat pockets are often unresponsive to regular exercise or diet. They may require a degree of medical intervention to be removed.
WHAT IS LIPOSUCTION?
Liposuction (also called lipoplasty, lipectomy and liposculpture) is a body contouring procedure designed to remove excess fat deposits from the body permanently.
While it isn’t a weight-loss treatment, it does serve to improve the contours and proportions of the body such as:
- abdomen
- buttocks and thighs
- arms
- neck
- under the chin
This suction method can target nearly any body area affected by excess amounts of localised fat—and can treat multiple sites in a single operation.
WHAT IS LIPOSCULPTURE?
While it is a detailed and innovative procedure, Liposculpture draws on standard liposuction techniques. However, it incorporates an advanced method of moulding the skin and underlying tissue.
Results
Lipoplasty (Liposuction or Liposculpture) is not a weight loss surgery, so it is vital to maintain a healthy lifestyle to preserve the physical effects of the treatment and avoid any uneven distribution of fat. Keeping a regular exercise and nutritional eating regime helps you experience the full benefits.

What to expect from Liposuction
The procedure varies depending on your needs and targeted areas. Dr Liew will work with you to create a tailored treatment plan based on your body type in your initial consultation and results will continue to settle for up to one month after the procedure.
Rather than just suctioning fat out of the body, the liposculpting technique allows Specialist Plastic Surgeon, Dr Steven Liew to mould the skin and underlying tissue.
- Procedure time: 1 – 3 hours (depends on the number of areas require treatment)
- Downtime required: 2 – 7 days.
