Liposuction

Liposuction is an excellent way to enhance your overall body shape and contour.  It is very effective to eliminate those stubborn fat deposits that diet and exercise can’t.

Liposuction will put your upper and lower torso back to the proper proportions.  What liposuction will not do is eliminate or improve stretch marks or cellulite.  There are two main types standard or ultrasonic assisted.   The ultrasonic assisted liposuction does have less discomfort, swelling, and bruising hence a quicker recovery.

The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis usually under general anesthesia. Tumescent solution is infused into the tissues to help greatly reduce blood loss and provide early post operative pain relief.  Most of the bruising is gone by one week.  The majority of the swelling resolves within the first 4-6 weeks although it will take 6 months to get the final result.  Massage of the treated areas is recommended to help eliminate swelling bruising, and smoother contour.
