Does liposuction hurt?

Answer:
Many Plastic Surgeons choose to carry out liposuction under general anaesthetic, especially if therevare large volumes of fat to remove. In this case the procedure itself will be painless. You can expect some bruising and swelling after the operation which will be uncomfortable for a while.

Modern liposuction equipment such as Laser asiisted liposuction or vaser liposuction is developed to be performed under local anaesthetic with or without sedation. This means that you will not be completely asleep for the procedure.

In most cases these procedures are well tolerated by the Patient , but you may feel a little discomfort as the local anaesthetic is bring administered.
