Feel lighter than ever

When areas of the body retain fat that simply can’t be removed no matter how hard we try, it can be disheartening and often leads to feelings of unhappiness. Our liposuction treatments offer a flexible solution for fat removal and body sculpting.

What is liposuction used for?

Liposuction is a procedure designed to remove pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. This can be done in a wide range of areas, including the neck, abdomen, back, thighs, knees, hips, arms, calves and ankles. This procedure involves making small incisions and using a suction device to extract fat cells. There have been many developments in liposuction technology, leading to combined techniques that achieve better precision and minimise discomfort. One of these is the ultrasound-assisted liposuction. Adnova Clinic are committed to constantly improving the level of patient care we provide. As such, all options will be discussed with you when you come in to see us.

Here at Adnova we also offer a range of other body procedures, these include Thigh Lift, Renuvion, VASERlipo, and many more.

Liposuction Before and After

What to know before having liposuction

At Adnova Clinic, our surgeons are always available to sit down with prospective patients to discuss the information surrounding particular surgeries. During a consultation for liposuction, they will evaluate your overall health, assess the areas you wish to target, and explain the potential risks and benefits of the procedure. Liposuction should not be considered as a weight-loss treatment. You may also be given detailed pre-operative and post-operative instructions to help you prepare for the surgery and achieve optimal results.

Aftercare and recovery from liposuction treatment

Liposuction recovery time will vary from person to person, depending on the areas targeted by the treatment and factors associated with the individual. For example, larger areas such as the abdomen will take longer to heal. You may also have to take additional time away from work if you do a job that involves hard physical exertion. Regardless, it will usually take around a week for the stitches to be removed and incisions to heal. After this, the surgeon will likely recommend another two weeks of rest before you can do gentle exercise. The Adnova Clinic team provides an aftercare plan that’s unique to you and your lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of liposuction in Southampton with Adnova Clinic starts from £3,500 up to £7,000 depending on the amount of fat reduction or area desired. Our price list is a guide and may vary according to individual requirements or surgeon. 

Yes. Liposuction is a surgical treatment that permanently removes fat from the body. However, it does not prevent someone from gaining fat again in the areas that liposuction has targeted. For more details on how long liposuction results typically last, see this article: How Long Does Liposuction Last?.

Patients often describe moderate pain following the procedure due to bruising. However, liposuction is typically performed while the patient is under general anaesthetic. Small areas may be addressed under a local anaesthetic. 

Liposuction and abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) target different concerns. Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits but does not address loose skin or weakened muscles. Abdominoplasty, on the other hand, removes excess skin and fat while tightening abdominal muscles, making it ideal after pregnancy or significant weight loss. For a detailed comparison, see Abdominoplasty vs. Liposuction: Which Is Suitable for You?.
