Liposuction surgery is performed to remove unwanted localized deposits of fat cells from the body. This procedure is meant for body contouring, not for the treatment of obesity. Liposuction is not a replacement for a healthy lifestyle. It is to aid in the treatment and removal of stubborn fat deposits that do not go away with diet and exercise.
Our office utilizes the tumescent technique of liposuction surgery. Large volumes of saline solution, local anesthesia, and adrenaline are infused into the fatty area to cause swelling. This enables a small instrument called a cannula to be inserted and connected to a vacuum machine. Dr. Staahl then gently moves it around under your skin and suctions away the unwanted fatty deposvits.
Dimples, ripples and stretch marks remain unchanged following liposuction. Your new figure will be similar to what you would expect if you could lose an equal amount of localized fat through diet and exercise alone. You will be expected to rest for few days following surgery. After 2 to 6 days you may resume normal activities. You will need to wear a snug elastic dressing or girdle over the treated areas for several weeks to promote healing. Slight bruising may be expected following liposuction.
Our office includes in your liposuction procedure, four endermologie treatments before and after liposuction to aid
in the tightening of the skin.
If you have wondered how liposuction could improve your looks, self-confidence, or health, contact our office for a professional consultation.
