Suction-Assisted Lipectomy

Liposuction is a popular procedure for removing stubborn fat in targeted areas to improve body proportions and contours. With small, well-placed incisions, the Vaser Ultrasonic Liposuction device emulsifies fat for a gentler procedure, and Renuvion can be added to help tighten the surrounding tissue. Recovery involves wearing a compression garment for about a month, and while activities are limited based on comfort, healing tends to be much easier than more extensive procedures.

Liposuction is an incredibly popular procedure that helps remove stubborn fat in selected areas, refining the body’s shape and improving overall proportions. It’s not a weight-loss solution but rather a way to target areas that don’t seem to budge despite diet and exercise. The incisions are typically less than one centimeter long and are strategically placed to be discreet while allowing for maximum access to the areas being treated.

We use the Vaser Ultrasonic Liposuction device, which "melts" the fat before removal, making the process more efficient and gentler on the tissue. For patients concerned about loose skin after fat removal, we often recommend adding Renuvion (J-Plasma), an energy-based treatment that helps tighten and firm the surrounding tissue.

The recovery is relatively straightforward—most patients are back to normal activities within a few weeks. You’ll wear a post-surgical compression garment for about a month to help control swelling and support the healing process. While liposuction can dramatically enhance body contours, it’s not the right approach for everyone. Sometimes, excess skin or tissue characteristics mean that a different procedure, such as an abdominoplasty, may be a better option. We’ll walk you through your options so you can make the most informed choice.
