Surgeons must usually conduct an initial consultation to determine which patients would suffer psychologically from the liposuction surgery.Surgeons will be able to deduce whether or not a patient will be satisfied with the results of the liposuction procedure. A doctor’s intuition may be able to save some patients from having bad psychological outcomes.

Getting a liposuction procedure performed can prove stressful for many patients and they may experience both physical and psychological stress.Patients will have difficulty adjusting to the change their liposuction surgery brings, because the operation can significantly change their body image. The postoperative adjustment period will be long and difficult for many liposuction patients.Postoperative depression is another psychological aspect of liposuction cosmetic surgery. After the surgical procedure, patients may experience mild feelings of unhappiness, but sometimes this depression can be more severe. Postoperative depression can last from a few days to several weeks in some patients. Liposuction post depression can be caused by stress, exhaustion, metabolic changes, or the frustration of not seeing immediate results. Patients who were stressed before the liposuction surgery or those that have a history of depression are the most vulnerable to postoperative depression.

Some patients may also encounter a decreased sense of self-image following the surgery, which is usually caused by criticism. Having liposuction cosmetic surgery can elicit criticism from family and friends, which is not all positive. These criticisms can cause patients to look at their body in a demeaning manner. Some may also experience a decreased feeling of self worth as some friends may deem them as frivolous for having the surgery. Patients will then question their reasons for wanting the liposuction procedure, and may question their image of themselves.

Usually a patient undergoes a major look transformation and need counselling to deal with this. A lot of changes in look may happen, some of the examples of look are shown here: Liposuction before and after
