Wockhardt Institute of Aesthetics’ webinar to reveal all on ‘Liposuction’



‘Wockhardt Institute of Aesthetics’ (part of Wockhardt Hospitals Group) is hosting a webinar on 29th August, 2011 to shed light on the risks and benefits of Liposuction. The webinar will be led by one of the Senior Aesthetic and Plastic surgeon, Dr. Manish Patel (MS, MCh) who has an extensive experience of performing liposuction.

‘Wockhardt Institute of Aesthetics’ provides an entire range of aesthetic services and personalized care with a guest centric approach. The strong base of medical professionals is committed to maintaining the highest standard of ethics and privacy. Dr. Manish Patel, an established name in the field of Aesthetic and Plastic Surgery is a senior consultant at the Wockhardt Institute of Aesthetics and exudes the commitment of the Institute.

‘Liposuction’ (‘Lipo’ comes from the Greek word ‘lipos,’ meaning fat ) is not a weight-reduction surgery, but is essentially a body contouring procedure that involves removing excess fat from specific areas of the body. It is in this, that liposuction differs from ‘Bariatic Surgery’, which is a weight loss surgery.  Like Bariatric Surgery, Liposuction is ideal for overweight patients for sculpting their own body shape.  Liposuction can be performed best on healthy adults who have a relatively normal and stable weight, whereas weight-loss surgery is strongly recommended for those who have a BMI (Body Mass Index) greater than 35 or 40.

Find out if Liposuction is the best option to lose the fat, which diet and exercise do not help get rid of.
