8 Things To Know About Botched Liposuction

Although liposuction, a surgical procedure for fat removal and body contouring, offers impressive results, many people are deterred by concerns about their potential post-surgery appearance. It's a fact that an improperly executed liposuction can result in less than-ideal body contouring, leading to scarring, uneven contours and dimpling. Nevertheless, choosing a skilled and highly experienced liposuction doctor can ensure you achieve the smooth, sleek outcome you want.

It's really important to do your research before choosing a liposuction doctor. Ask plenty of questions, like how many procedures they do a week - and ask to see some "before" and "after" pictures. Here, we pose a few questions to a Singapore doctor who is also the Chairman of the Lipo Peer Review Committee of Singapore, DR IVAN PUAH of Amaris B.

#1 What are the causes of botched liposuction?

Botched liposuction cases often occur due to undercorrection or overcorrection. Undercorrection arises when an insufficient amount of fat is removed, necessitating the possibility of secondary liposuction to refine the outcome. Conversely, overcorrection occurs when an excessive amount of fat is removed, resulting in deviations from the intended body contour, leading to irregularities such as bumps, depressions and asymmetries. Inexperienced, poorly trained or unskilled liposuction doctors may inadvertently cause tissue trauma, while ineffective communication between the doctor and patient can contribute to less-than-ideal results.
