Liposuction

Liposuction can treat the tummy, thighs, hips, buttocks, arms, back, love handles and under the chin — areas where fat tends to stay despite diet and exercise.

If you have specific pockets of fat that won’t budge, you’re likely a good candidate. Liposuction is for contouring, not weight loss. Healthy people with stable weight and good skin elasticity tend to get the best results.

Liposuction is a well-established procedure. Like any surgery it carries risks — such as swelling, bruising, uneven contour, fluid collection, infection or numbness — and Dr. Garg will explain each one at your consultation. To reduce risk, we check your fitness for surgery before the procedure, operate in a fully equipped hospital setting at Fortis Hospital Mohali, and follow you closely through recovery.

Liposuction is typically done as a day-care or short-stay procedure. Anaesthesia depends on the areas treated. Most sessions take a few hours or less. You’ll be guided on garments and aftercare before you leave.

Expect swelling, bruising and discomfort for several days. A compression garment helps the area heal smoothly. Many people return to light work within about a week and build up activity over 2–4 weeks. Full contour settles over months.

Fat cells removed during liposuction do not return in the treated area. Significant weight gain can still change other areas. A stable lifestyle helps your new shape last.

You’ll notice a change early on, but swelling hides the true contour at first. Shape keeps improving for weeks; most of the result is clear by around three months, with final refinement by about six months.

Book a consultation with Dr. Akhil Garg. We’ll listen to your goals, assess your health and body type, and discuss the best plan for you — including whether a lift or another procedure is a better fit.

Liposuction packages at Morphe by Dr. Akhil Garg range from ₹80,000 to ₹3,00,000. The final cost depends on how many areas are treated, the amount of fat and the package you choose. You’ll get an exact estimate after your consultation.

Dr. Garg is an M.Ch plastic surgeon from PGIMER Chandigarh with fellowship training in London. You’ll see a 3D preview before surgery, the procedure is done in a hospital setting, and the same team follows you from consultation to final result.
