Liposuction in Leeds: Areas and Price

Yes, standard practice. Few patients treat just a single area; most combine several problem zones — abdomen and flanks, for example, or inner and outer thighs. Our surgeons help define the optimal scope of surgery at the consultation, taking into account your health and desired result.

No. It is not a weight-loss method. Liposuction removes local fat deposits that stay despite diet and exercise, reshaping body contours. When weight is unstable, a nutritionist or endocrinologist should be seen first.

Punctures only 3–7 mm across are all that is needed, usually with no stitches. The marks are barely visible after healing and fade completely with proper care during recovery.

Before the operation, the surgeon always assesses skin tone, elasticity and turgor. If the skin is in good condition, it tightens on its own around the new contours. For reduced tone or stretch marks, our specialists recommend preparatory treatments to improve the skin in advance.

No, you are under anesthesia during the procedure — local or general, depending on the scope. After surgery there may be mild discomfort, relieved by painkillers prescribed by the doctor.

In the first 7 days there should be no physical exertion or heavy lifting. Compression garments are worn for 4–6 weeks, and the bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport are avoided. No alcohol or tanning beds for at least a month. Your surgeon provides all individual recommendations after surgery.

Surgery is performed for patients 18+ without contraindications. There's no upper age limit: each decision is individual, after an examination and assessment of health.

Not directly. While liposuction removes fat tissue, it does not change the skin structure that causes cellulite. Improved body contours still visibly reduce its appearance.

Most patients get back to their usual routine and work in 7–10 days. Swelling and bruising clear by weeks 4–5. The final result forms in 3–6 months, once the tissues have fully adapted.

No strict diet is needed, yet nutrition plays a role in keeping the result. Removed fat cells don't return, but the ones left can grow if you gain weight. To make the result last, we recommend a balanced diet and regular physical activity.

Yes. 7–10 days before liposuction, stop smoking, alcohol and medicines that affect blood clotting (aspirin, etc.). You also need pre-op tests: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, and GP and anesthesiologist consultations. You'll get all instructions after your first consultation.

Changes start to show 2 weeks after surgery, once the main swelling has gone. At 1.5–2 months the interim result is assessed, and in 3–6 months the final contours form.
