Hi.

Welcome to Healthcare Magic. Thank you for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.

Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty ("fat modeling"), liposculpture suction lipectomy ("suction-assisted fat removal") or simply lipo, is a cosmetic surgery operation that removes fat from many different sites on the human body

There are different techniques like :
-Suction-assisted liposuction (SAL)
-Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL)
-Power-assisted liposuction (PAL)
-Water-assisted liposuction (WAL)


Some of the adverse effects are
-Bruising
-Swelling
-Scars
-Pain
-Numbness
-Post-operative weight gain
-Limited mobility

The recovery time would be around a week.
You will be fit and fine.

Do not worry.

Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing you good health.
Congratulations for your marriage in advance.

Regards.
