Liposuction Surgery
in Winnipeg, Manitoba at The First Glance
Liposuction is one of the most popular Body Contouring procedures that successfully removes stubborn fat from specific areas of your body.
The most common treatment areas are the tummy, love handles, under the neck, buttocks, thighs, arms, and back.
Liposuction is often combined with other aesthetic procedures to enhance results; the most common ones are Tummy Tuck, Breast Augmentation, Brazilian Butt Lift, Breast Reduction, and Face Lift.
The advantage of Liposuction is your stubborn fat cells are removed in one treatment, and all of the fat cells removed at the time of your surgery are gone forever.
Liposuction is a procedure that is performed safely under local anesthetic or general anesthetic and can take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours.

How is Liposuction Performed?
Your Board Certified Plastic Surgeon will create tiny incisions to insert a small cannula under the skin. The energy from the laser disrupts and liquefies the fat, tightens the skin, then the fat is removed via Liposuction. This is a short and gentle procedure performed under local anesthesia typically within 1 to 2 hours, depending on the areas treated.
What is Recovery Like After Liposuction?
After Liposuction, you can expect to be swollen, bruised, and have some discomfort in the areas treated. You will be given a compression garment to wear after surgery. You can return to work and daily activities generally 4 to 7 days after your procedure. Return to work will vary based on the areas treated. Strenuous activity, heavy lifting, and vigorous exercise should be avoided for 2 to 3 weeks.
Areas That Can Be Treated With Liposuction
Thanks to all the different Liposuction techniques, virtually any area of the body can be treated. From the neck all the way down to the calves, Liposuction helps to sculpt, contour, and add more definition.
Proper Candidates For Liposuction
It is essential to realize that Liposuction is not a short-cut for weight loss. Healthy eating and exercise are still very important to incorporate into your lifestyle. The goal of Liposuction is not to lose weight, but to improve the body’s shape. Liposuction is not an effective treatment for cellulite and is not a solution for saggy, loose, or wrinkled skin.
You need to be in good health, at a stable weight and have specific realistic goals for the improvement of your contour.
Additional Procedures
Popular surgeries typically performed with Liposuction include Tummy Tuck, Arm Lift, Thigh Lift, Breast Augmentation, or a complete Mommy Makeover.
Choosing Your Surgeon
When considering a surgeon, it’s important to research all of your options and choose a specialist who is Board Certified in both Aesthetic & Reconstructive Plastic Surgery. While many plastic surgeons perform Liposuction surgery, you should select a surgeon who focuses strictly on aesthetic and reconstructive Body Contouring surgery and is recognized for excellence in this procedure.
What are the benefits if your surgeon has a reconstructive surgery background?
Most of the world’s best aesthetic surgeons began with reconstructive practices. In fact, almost all of the groundbreaking techniques in aesthetic surgery have reconstructive origins. Reconstructive surgery cases are typically more complex and often require highly specialized surgical techniques. Comfort, confidence, and predictability with advanced reconstructive surgery techniques have become powerful tools often adapted to aesthetic procedures.
At the First Glance Aesthetic Clinic & Surgery Centre, all of our surgeons are Board Certified Aesthetic & Reconstructive Plastic Surgeons, which is the highest level of achievement a Plastic Surgeon in Canada can obtain.
