Liposuction in Hyderabad — Body Contouring with VASER & Tumescent Technique
Stubborn fat removed precisely with VASER ultrasonic and tumescent liposuction by Dr. Ram Prabhu — DNB Super Speciality Plastic Surgeon. Abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, chin, back. Day-care procedure.
What Is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a body contouring surgery that permanently removes localized fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Unlike weight loss, which shrinks existing fat cells, liposuction physically removes fat cells from the body — meaning those cells cannot regrow in the treated areas. The result is a refined, sculpted contour rather than just a smaller version of the same shape.
At our Kondapur clinic, Dr. Ram Prabhu performs both VASER (ultrasound-assisted) liposuction for precise sculpting and traditional tumescent liposuction for larger volume reductions. VASER is particularly effective for high-definition body contouring, gynecomastia, and revision cases where smooth results are critical.
Common areas treated include abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs (inner and outer), upper arms, back rolls, chin and jowls, calves, knees, and the male chest. Multiple areas can be treated in a single session, depending on total volume and patient safety considerations.
Liposuction is NOT a weight loss procedure — it is a contouring procedure best suited for patients within 30% of their ideal weight who have specific stubborn areas. Best results are achieved when combined with a healthy lifestyle.
Causes & Indications
Common Causes
- Stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
- Genetic fat distribution (e.g., persistent saddlebags or love handles)
- Post-pregnancy abdominal fat that does not respond to exercise
- Asymmetric fat distribution (one side larger than the other)
- Lipoma-like localized fat collections
- Fat in areas difficult to target with exercise (chin, knees, ankles)
- Body contour disproportions despite a healthy BMI
- Post-bariatric "stubborn pockets" after major weight loss
Signs You May Need Liposuction
- Specific body areas that look disproportionate despite a normal weight
- Clothes fitting poorly because of localized bulges
- A double chin or jowl despite a slim face
- Bra rolls or back fat that exercise cannot reduce
- Inner-thigh chafing from genetic fat distribution

What Happens on the Day of Liposuction
- Step 1 — Arrival & Markings (45 min)
Pre-op photographs from multiple angles. Detailed body markings made while you are standing, sitting, and lying down.

General anaesthesia for most cases; local + sedation for small areas like chin or single thigh.
- Step 3 — Tumescent Infiltration (15-30 min)
A diluted saline-anaesthetic-adrenaline solution is infiltrated to swell the fat layer, reduce bleeding, and improve precision.
- Step 4 — VASER / Aspiration (60-180 min)
For VASER — ultrasonic probe emulsifies fat. For tumescent — micro-cannulae aspirate fat directly. Treatment is performed through 2-3 mm hidden incisions.
- Step 5 — Skin Smoothing (15-20 min)
Final smoothing pass to ensure no irregularities. Treatment areas verified against pre-op markings.
