Canadian Resident Reviews Our Services
Medical Tourism Corporation has been facilitating liposuction in Cancun and Tijuana of a number of happy clients for over a decade now.
One of our clients, Connie B from Canada, was very happy about her whole experience. Here is her detailed review of liposuction in Cancun.
I arrived much later than their business hours but there was someone there to pick me up regardless. The doctor was a perfectionist but in a good way, everything went smoothly. I would do it again for sure!

What is Liposuction?
- Liposuction is a cosmetic surgical procedure which helps improve body contours by reshaping it and removing excess fat.
- The surgery targets stubborn localized fat deposits that fail to budge despite following a strict weight loss regimen.
- Fat deposits in the following parts of the body can be targeted through liposuction:
-
- Abdominal area
- Hips
- Inner and outer thighs
- Gluteal area
-
- Upper arms
- Calves
- Chin area
- Cheeks
- A liposuction may also be performed along with a facelift, breast reduction, and abdominoplasty or tummy tuck.
- Please note that liposuction is not a solution for obesity and cellulite problem.
- You make a good candidate for liposuction if you:
-
- Are within 30% of your ideal weight range
- Have firmness and elasticity in your skin
- Do not suffer from any medical conditions that could interfere with recovery, post surgery
- Do not smoke
- Liposuction involves making tiny incisions in the not-so-easily-noticeable areas.
- To reduce trauma and blood loss, a sterile solution is injected into the body through the tiny incisions.
- Redundant fat is then loosened and dislodged with the help of a cannula—a thin hollow tube, which is inserted through the incision—by moving it back and forth.
- A surgical vacuum or syringe attached to the cannula is then used to suction out the dislodged fat.
- Swelling after liposuction surgery might take several weeks to go away. Only then will you be able to appreciate the final results of your surgery.
- Alternative names of the procedure are lipoplasty and fat modeling.
Different Types of Liposuction
Tumescent Liposuction: The most common form of liposuction which has been explained above.
Ultrasound-assisted Liposuction (UAL): Fat is liquefied and broken down with the help of a metal rod which emits ultrasonic energy.
Powered Liposuction: An oscillating blade attached to the cannula which moves with a rapid to-and-fro action is used to liquefy stubborn fat.
