Liposuction in Gurgaon
Liposuction removes stubborn pockets of fat that diet and exercise do not shift, and reshapes the area. It is a contouring procedure, not a weight-loss one. Plastic surgeon Dr. Rahul Jain uses Vaser ultrasound-assisted technique, and plans each area with you before anything is decided.
In short
Liposuction at House of Aetheria, Sector 65, Gurugram, is performed by plastic surgeon Dr. Rahul Jain using Vaser ultrasound-assisted technique. It removes stubborn fat from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back and chin. It is done as day-care surgery, most people return to desk work in about 5 to 7 days, and the final shape settles over 3 to 6 months.

Who liposuction suits
Liposuction works best for people who are near their ideal weight and have fat in specific areas that does not respond to lifestyle changes.
- Stubborn fat on the tummy, flanks, back, thighs or arms
- Good skin elasticity, so the skin can settle after fat is removed
- Stable weight and realistic expectations
- Good general health, checked before surgery

The technique
How Vaser liposuction works
Step by step
- Tumescent fluid, a saline mix with local anaesthetic, is placed in the fat. It reduces bleeding and helps with comfort.
- A thin Vaser probe uses ultrasound energy to loosen the fat cells while sparing nerves and blood vessels.
- A fine cannula then removes the loosened fat through small, discreet incisions.
Why surgeons choose Vaser
- Smoother contours than purely mechanical liposuction
- Less trauma to surrounding tissue, so usually less bruising
- Helps the skin tighten after treatment
- Allows Hi-Def contouring, which shapes the areas around your muscles

Straight talk
What liposuction can and cannot do
Liposuction removes fat cells in the treated area, and they do not grow back there. If you gain a lot of weight later, the remaining fat cells can still enlarge, in treated and other areas.
- It can reshape stubborn areas and be combined with other procedures such as a tummy tuck
- It does not treat obesity or replace weight loss
- It does not tighten very loose skin. Heavier laxity may need other procedures
- It does not remove deep belly (visceral) fat or treat cellulite

Straight answers about liposuction, from our Sector 65 clinic in Gurugram.
The cost depends on the areas treated, the technique and the anaesthesia. Dr. Rahul Jain gives you a clear plan and cost at your consultation, after he examines you.
Most people return to desk work in around 5 to 7 days. You wear a compression garment for about 6 weeks and restart exercise around week 4, as your surgeon advises. Swelling settles over a few months.
The fat cells removed do not come back. But if you gain a lot of weight, the remaining fat cells can grow, so keeping a stable weight matters.
There is a safe limit for each person, which depends on your size and health. Your surgeon sets it and will not go beyond it.
Vaser uses ultrasound to loosen the fat first, then removes it gently. Traditional liposuction uses more mechanical force. Vaser tends to give smoother contours, with less bruising.
Yes, for some people, especially after pregnancy or weight loss. Your surgeon will tell you if combining the two is safe and whether it gives you a better result.
No. Injections are non-surgical and suit small areas, like under the chin. Liposuction removes larger amounts of fat in one go. Your surgeon will tell you which one fits your goal.
The incisions are very small, around 3 to 4 mm, and placed where they are hard to see. They usually fade well with time.
