Recovery from liposuction involves a period of rest and careful care to allow your body to heal and achieve the best results. Most patients experience swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the treated areas during the first few days, which can be managed with prescribed medication. Compression garments are usually worn to support healing and help the skin conform to new contours. Light activity is encouraged early, but strenuous exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for several weeks. Most patients can return to work and daily activities within a few days to a week, with final results becoming more visible as swelling subsides. At Ottawa Derm Surgery Centre, we provide detailed post-operative guidance and support to make your recovery as comfortable and smooth as possible.

What is a Liposuction?
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from targeted areas of the body to create a smoother, more contoured appearance. It is often used on the abdomen, hips, thighs, arms, or neck to help patients achieve balance and proportion that complements their natural body shape.
Liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure but a body-contouring solution for stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise. At Ottawa Derm Surgery Centre, each procedure is tailored to your individual goals, ensuring natural-looking results that enhance your confidence and overall silhouette.
Who is a good candidate for a Liposuction?
A good candidate for liposuction is someone in overall good health who has stubborn areas of fat that have not responded to diet or exercise. Ideal candidates are close to their desired weight, have realistic expectations, and are committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle after surgery. Liposuction can help enhance body contours and proportion, allowing patients to feel more confident in their appearance. At Ottawa Derm Surgery Centre, we prioritise your comfort, safety, and goals, providing personalised guidance throughout your entire journey.
