Liposuction

Surgical fat removal from specific body areas to sculpt contours and remove deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise.

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat deposits from specific body areas using a thin tube (cannula) connected to a vacuum. Modern liposuction at Kaya uses tumescent technique — the targeted area is pre-infiltrated with a saline and anaesthetic solution that swells the fat, reduces bleeding, and allows precise extraction. The procedure sculpts specific contours rather than being a weight loss solution.

Benefits
Permanent fat removal
Fat cells removed by liposuction do not regenerate. With stable body weight, results are permanent.
Precise body sculpting
Liposuction can address small areas (such as the neck or ankles) that do not respond to non-surgical methods.
Multiple areas simultaneously
Flanks, abdomen, thighs, arms, and back can be treated in a single surgical session for comprehensive body contouring.
Surgeon-performed
All liposuction at Kaya is performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon — cannula placement and extraction technique are the primary determinants of outcome quality.
How it works

After tumescent infiltration, a small incision (3–5 mm) is made at a concealed location. The cannula is passed through the fat layer in a radial pattern, dislodging and aspirating fat cells. Skilled movement creates smooth, even removal without creating irregularities. The surrounding structures (blood vessels, nerves, connective tissue) are largely preserved by the tumescent fluid.

Dr. Al-Rashidi was incredibly honest during the consultation — no overselling, just clarity. The result was exactly what I asked for.

The post-op care was just as impressive as the procedure itself. I felt supported at every step and the team was always reachable.

I looked in the mirror two weeks post-op and genuinely teared up. The results were beyond what I imagined and recovery was much smoother than I feared.
