Liposuction – Lipoplasty

Liposuction is among the most popular cosmetic procedures due to its high rate of success and minimal risk and downtime. It is a successful procedure for both men and women alike. Liposuction is typically performed to reduce disproportionately large hips, buttocks, thighs, protruding abdomen, or “love handles” above the waist. It is also helpful in removing fat on the arms, calves, knees, and under the chin.

Liposuction is often performed with other body surgery procedures, such as abdominoplasty (tummy tuck) or breast reduction. This procedure is a solution to stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. Some patients benefit most from liposuction and abdominoplasty after they have lost a significant amount of weight, in order to improve their body contour.

Who is a Good Candidate?

Individuals who have localized areas of fat that are disproportionate with the rest of their body can often benefit from this procedure. Ideal candidates will have good skin elasticity, be near their ideal weight, and be non-smokers. A consultation with Dr. Azouz is needed to determine if this procedure is right for you. A liposuction can also be combined with various other procedures for a Mommy Makeover surgery!

What to Expect During Dallas Liposuction

Liposuction is performed using the ultrasonic, power-assisted technique and the tumescent technique. During your consultation, our Dallas plastic surgeon Dr. Azouz will discuss your goals and recommend an individualized procedure to achieve your best outcome.

The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia with sedation. Patients return home shortly after the procedure has been completed. The recovery period and aftercare instructions will depend on the size of the treatment area and your natural healing process.

Recovery

Following your liposuction procedure, special compression garments will need to be worn to diminish swelling. Drains may be placed to collect any excess fluids during recovery. Redness, bruising, and swelling are expected, and any discomfort can be controlled with pain medication. Straining and bending over should be avoided, though patients should walk as soon as possible. Most patients can return to a desk job within a week. However, recovery time may differ from patient to patient.
