Although many patients have very satisfactory results, as with
any operation certain problems may occur and it is important that
you be aware of the risks involved.
Permanent problems rarely occur; however, potential complications
with this procedure include irregularities of contour such as waviness
or depressions, wrinkling or sagging of the skin, numbness or increased
sensitivity in the area treated, prolonged swelling of the area
treated, accumulation of blood serum under the skin requiring removal,
asymmetry between the treated sides or changes in the skin color.
Results vary among patients but the majority of patients are happy
and enjoy the improved quality of life. This information is provided
to acquaint you with the risks as well as the benefits associated
with this procedure. Of course, it is not possible to advise you
of every conceivable complication and other problems can occur which
are unexpected. It should be noted that the complications associated
with this procedure are frequently related to the amount of fat
removed from the patient and the patient's age.
