Liposuction Saddlebags

One of the most popular liposuction procedures is targeted around the hip areas. For women, hips are considered an overt sign of fertility and sexuality. Both men and women yearn for the classic hourglass figure and there are numerous products and services designed to assist women obtain that look. However, exercise and dieting often do not produce the changes that women want in their physical appearance. Women often find themselves burdened with the expectations that they face concerning their hips. Small hips are the idealized image for women but ironically the hips are the part of the body where women store the majority of their fat. This is because the female body is genetically designed to store fat in the hips and outer thighs. As a result, many women find that they have a disproportional look due to large hips. This phenomenon is often called saddlebags or riding breeches, which are terms that are not particularly flattering.

As a result, liposuction saddlebags is the cosmetic surgical procedure that helps women obtain a more proportional look by removing excess fat deposits from the hip areas. The hips are the part of the body where women store most of their fat and are ironically the part of the body that is highly resistant to such traditional weight loss methods as dieting and exercise. By undergoing the liposuction saddlebags procedure, women will be able to completely alter their waistline to conform to their ideal image of themselves.

The liposuction saddlebags procedure enables plastic surgeons to remove large fat deposits from the hips with minimal scarring. During this procedure, the plastic surgeon will make only a few incisions that have the benefit of not leading to permanent scarring. Once these incisions are made, the plastic surgeon will insert a cannula (the technical term for a suction probe used in all liposuction treatments) into the layers of fat located beneath the skin. Through the use of a vacuum, this excess fat will be sucked out and removed from the patient.

Following the liposuction saddlebags procedure, the patient will have to undergo a short recovery period. To assist your body in adjusting to its new shape, the patient will have to wear a compression garment for a few weeks. Similar to pantyhose, the vast majority of past liposuction saddlebags surgery patient found that wearing the compression garment was not in the least bit intrusive. For the most part, liposuction saddlebags surgery patients found that they were able to return to work within a week of the surgery.

The greatest advantage that liposuction saddlebags surgery has is that it permanently changes the patient's body for the better. As adults, it is impossible to generate new fat cells and weight increase only become evident due to the expansion of existing fat cells. For this reason, liposuction saddlebags have become one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures available.
