Preoperative surgery may also be required and if it does, we will have this arranged beforehand and inform you of this.

During The  Breast Liposuction Surgery

The breast liposuction surgery begins with the anaesthetic fluid being injected into the breast area which is being operated on. Then, there is normally an incision placed in this area that is just less than 1 cm long or large enough for fat removal via a cannula. Another form of breast liposuction that can be performed is through body jet liposuction fluid. After the fat is removed, dissolvable stitches are then used to cover up the incision and a comprehensive dressing is applied. This can all take around 1-2 hours.

Those under local anaesthetic should be able to find mobility relatively quickly, but those under general anaesthetic will require to return back to the ward in order to recover.

Regardless, you’re still likely to feel discomfort and swelling which may require pain relief. You’ll still be able to drink and eat after the breast liposuction surgery before being able to go home on the same day.

When you go home, it’s important to keep the wounds dry for at least a week and that you continue to wear the garment dressing around 4-6 weeks after the breast liposuction surgery in Manchester. You’ll most likely require someone to stay with you whilst you’re at home too as discomfort is likely to be felt for around a week also. After a week you should be able to lightly exercise before normal exercising can again take place after 1-2 weeks

To improve the appearance of the scar you should begin to massage it once healed.
