Ankle Liposuction
Ankle Liposuction
Ankle liposuction, also known as ankle contouring or ankle sculpting, is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to remove excess fat deposits from the ankle area to achieve a more sculpted and defined lower leg appearance. The procedure typically begins with a consultation where the surgeon evaluates the patient's ankle fat distribution, skin elasticity, and overall health. Once deemed a suitable candidate, the patient is anesthetized, either locally or generally, based on the surgeon's recommendation and patient preference. Small incisions, usually a few millimeters in size, are made around the ankle region through which a saline solution containing a local anesthetic and vasoconstrictor (tumescent fluid) is injected to minimize bleeding and facilitate fat removal.
The surgeon then inserts a thin, hollow tube called a cannula through the incisions to break up and suction out the excess fat deposits. The procedure is performed with care to ensure even fat removal and to avoid damage to surrounding tissues. After the fat removal, the incisions are closed with sutures or adhesive strips, and the treated area is wrapped with a compression bandage to minimize swelling and support proper healing. Post-operative instructions typically include wearing compression garments, avoiding strenuous activities, and attending follow-up appointments to monitor healing progress. With proper care and adherence to recovery guidelines, patients can expect to see a more defined and aesthetically pleasing ankle contour, contributing to an enhanced overall leg appearance.
