Abstract
Objective: To study the effect of large volume liposuction
on body weight and total body fat in overweight and obese
patients (BMI from 25-35) and in patients with localized
lipodystrophy.
Background: Liposuction has become one of the most
popular cosmetic procedures performed by plastic surgeon.
Method: This study was conducted on 31 patients presented
with localized accumulation of fat either in thigh, abdomen,
back or gluteal region and arms or in generalized overweight
patients with BMI 25-30 and obese patients' class 1 with BMI
30-35 will undergo large volume liposuction in Plastic Surgery
Department, Faculty of Medicine, Menoufia University. All
studied patients were subjected to take a full history, general
examination and local examination (for the area to be suctioned).
Laboratory investigations as: Complete blood counts
(CBC), blood glucose level, kidney function tests, liver
function tests and bleeding profile.
Results: There were statistically significant difference
between preoperative measurements of total body fat and (3
months, 6 months) postoperatively (p < 0.01).
There was statistically significant difference between the
preoperative measurements of visceral fat and postoperative
measurements (after 3 months and 6 months) (p < 0.01).
Conclusion: We found that the large volume liposuction
in our patients, significantly reduces the weight, BMI, total
body fat, visceral fat, circumference of abdomen and gluteal
region.
