Liposuction. Image 2 of 15. Area of excess fat marked on the hips of a middle-aged man being prepared for liposuction surgery. The access hole (circle) has also been marked. Liposuction is a procedure that uses a vacuum pump to remove excess fat and sculpt the body. As with all surgery there is a risk of infection, excess bleeding and other complications. For a sequence showing liposuction surgery see M590/339 to M590/353.
