लिपोसक्शन सर्जरी के मुख्य जोखिम क्या हैं?

As a board-certified plastic surgeon in Jaipur, I believe that a safe procedure begins with an honest and transparent consultation. Your trust is my priority, and that starts with a clear discussion about the potential risks of liposuction.

Liposuction is considered a safe procedure when performed by a qualified surgeon in an accredited facility. However, like any major surgery, it carries inherent risks. General risks include bleeding, infection, and an adverse reaction to anesthesia.

The risk of complications can also rise if the surgeon is working on very large body surfaces or performing multiple, extensive procedures during the same operation. I am committed to helping you understand these potential complications fully so you can make an informed and confident decision.

Specific Risks: Contour Irregularities and Fluid Accumulation

The most common complications of liposuction are typically localised and related to the final aesthetic contour and immediate healing process.

• Contour Deformities: This represents the most frequent complication. The skin in the treated area may appear bumpy, wavy, or withered. This can be caused by uneven fat removal or by poor skin elasticity. These changes, unfortunately, may be permanent.

• द्रव संचय (सेरोमा): After surgery, temporary pockets of clear fluid, called seromas, can sometimes form under the skin. These are not dangerous but may need to be drained with a small needle in my office to help the area heal flat.

Temporary Side Effects (Expected Part of Recovery)

It is important to differentiate between a “risk” and a normal, temporary “side effect.” Following your fat removal surgery, certain side effects are expected and will resolve as your body heals.

• Bruising and Swelling: This is very common and expected. Bruising typically fades within a couple of weeks, but swelling can persist for several weeks or months. This is a normal part of the liposuction recovery time.

• Numbness: Temporary numbness or altered sensation (paresthesias) in the treated areas is possible. This is due to minor nerve irritation and should resolve on its own in 6 to 8 weeks.

Severe (But Rare) Complications

Severe complications are rare but are critical to understand. They require immediate medical intervention, and my entire surgical team is trained to prevent and, if necessary, manage them.

• Thromboembolism (DVT/PE): Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot that forms in a deep vein, usually in the leg. This is a serious complication because the clot can break off and travel to the lungs, causing a potentially fatal pulmonary embolism (PE).

• Fat Embolism: In very rare cases, pieces of loosened fat can break away and enter the bloodstream, blocking blood flow to the lungs or brain. This is a medical emergency.

• Internal Puncture: Though extremely rare with modern techniques, the cannula (the thin tube used) could penetrate too deeply and puncture an internal organ. This would require emergency surgical repair.

• Lidocaine Toxicity: The tumescent “wetting solution” used in liposuction contains the local anesthetic lidocaine. If the safe dosage limits are exceeded, it can cause serious heart and central nervous system problems.

• Fluid Shifts: When performing large-volume liposuction, the large shifts in the body’s fluid levels can potentially cause kidney or heart problems.

How I Minimize Your Risk

Your safety is my absolute priority. Risk is drastically reduced by selecting a highly qualified, board-certified surgeon and by rigorously following proven liposuction safety protocols.

My approach includes:

• Meticulous preoperative screening.
• Strict adherence to lidocaine dosage limits.
• Mandatory use of DVT-prevention devices (SCDs) during surgery.
• Recommending an overnight hospital stay for large-volume procedures.

As the best liposuction surgeon in Jaipur, my commitment to you is built on this foundation of safety. To discuss your personal risk profile and learn in detail how I mitigate these complications, I invite you to schedule a consultation.
