At Aurez Aesthetics in Malvern Victoria, we perform all liposuction with VASER® and power assisted liposuction( MicroAire® ). Sometimes we may use a patient’s own fat to achieve a desired shape or restore volume in selected areas.
Dr Hud Obaidi practises at Aurez Aesthetics in Malvern, Victoria, and performs a range of surgical procedures including VASER® liposuction with fat transfer, following detailed consultation and individual assessment. Dr Obaidi has undertaken training in cosmetic surgery techniques both in Australia and internationally, with a focus on patient safety and informed decision-making.At Aurez Aesthetics in Malvern, Victoria, all liposuction procedures are performed using VASER® and power-assisted liposuction (MicroAire®). In selected cases, a patient's own fat may be used to add volume to other areas of the body. Suitability for this approach is determined during consultation, and outcomes vary between individuals.
VASER® and MicroAire® liposuction is an invasive surgical procedure used to remove excess fat. VASER® uses ultrasound energy to assist in the breakdown of fat prior to removal, targeting fat deposits while aiming to reduce impact on surrounding tissues. Fat removal is then performed using power-assisted liposuction (MicroAire®), which uses a mechanised cannula to support more consistent movement during the procedure. As with all surgical procedures, suitability and outcomes vary between individuals and are discussed in detail during consultation.
Liposuction may be used to remove localised fat deposits from targeted areas of the body. In selected cases, the removed fat may be processed and reinjected to add volume to other body areas, such as the face, breasts, or buttocks. This technique uses the patient's own tissue rather than synthetic materials. Suitability for fat transfer depends on individual factors including fat quality and volume, and is assessed during consultation. As with all surgical procedures, outcomes vary and are not guaranteed.
Following fat transfer, a proportion of the transferred fat may be reabsorbed by the body over time. The rate of fat survival varies between individuals and is influenced by factors such as the area treated, surgical technique, individual biology, and post-procedure care. Multiple sessions may be required to achieve or maintain the desired volume. The long-term retention of transferred fat cannot be predicted or guaranteed, and this is discussed in detail during consultation.
Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with Dr. Obaidi, during which your medical history is reviewed, your concerns are discussed, and a treatment plan is developed based on your individual anatomy and goals.
Liposuction: Fat is removed from the selected donor area using established surgical techniques. The approach used will depend on individual anatomy and surgical planning, and is discussed during consultation.
Fat Processing: The removed fat is processed to separate viable fat cells from other fluids prior to reinjection.
Fat Transfer: The processed fat is then carefully reinjected into the target area. The volume and technique used will depend on individual factors and the area being treated.
Recovery: Following the procedure, swelling, bruising, and discomfort are common and expected. These symptoms generally reduce over the course of several weeks, though recovery experiences vary between individuals. Rest and limited activity are recommended during the initial recovery period, and specific post-operative instructions will be provided during consultation.
Results: Some changes may be visible in the early post-operative period, however final results are typically apparent after several months once swelling has resolved and any transferred fat has stabilised. The extent and longevity of results vary between individuals and cannot be guaranteed.
As with all surgical procedures, liposuction and fat transfer carry inherent risks and potential complications. These will be discussed in detail during your consultation to support informed decision-making.
General Surgical Risks:
Bleeding and haematoma formation
Infection, which may require antibiotic treatment or further intervention
Adverse reaction to anaesthesia
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or pulmonary embolism
Delayed wound healing
Liposuction Specific Risks:
Contour irregularities or asymmetry
Skin laxity or changes in skin texture
Altered sensation, including numbness or tingling, which may be temporary or permanent
Seroma formation (fluid accumulation)
Scarring at incision sites
Incomplete fat removal or need for revision procedure
Fat Transfer Specific Risks:
Partial or complete reabsorption of transferred fat
Calcification or cyst formation at the transfer site
Asymmetry or uneven volume distribution
Oil cysts
In rare cases, fat embolism
Individual risk profiles vary depending on overall health, anatomy, and the extent of the procedure. A thorough consultation is required prior to proceeding.
If you would like to learn more about whether this procedure may be suitable for you, contact Aurez Aesthetics to arrange a consultation with Dr Hud Obaidi. During your consultation, your medical history, treatment goals, and potential risks will be discussed in detail to help you make an informed decision about your care.
Suitability for liposuction with fat transfer is assessed on an individual basis during consultation with Dr Obaidi. General considerations may include:
Overall health: Candidates are generally in good general health with no medical conditions that may increase surgical risk
Stable weight: Individuals who are at or near a stable weight, as significant weight fluctuations following the procedure may affect results
Localised fat deposits: The presence of localised fat deposits in donor areas sufficient for harvesting and transfer
Skin quality: Adequate skin elasticity in both the donor and recipient areas, as this may influence the outcome
Realistic expectations: A clear understanding that outcomes vary between individuals and cannot be guaranteed
Non-smoker or willing to cease smoking: Smoking may impair healing and increase the risk of complications
