Liposuction. Image 13 of 15. Cosmetic surgeon performing liposuction surgery on the hips of a middle-aged man. The cannula, which is attached to a vacuum pump that sucks the fat tissue out of the body, can be seen pushing under the patient's skin. Liposuction removes excess fat and sculpts 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.
