A faster recovery after leg liposuction can be achieved by limiting the treated area during each procedure, performing the liposuction in stages, and removing fat in small, even amounts. Liposuction is a relatively direct method of weight reduction. After reaching adulthood, the number of fat cells in the human body remains fixed. Localized obesity results from an enlargement of fat cell volume, not an increase in cell number. Liposuction reduces localized fat by decreasing the actual number of fat cells.
