Liposuction is a safe and effective cosmetic surgical procedure that helps patients achieve a taut, flat midsection when dieting and exercise are not effective. Perfect for body sculpting, liposuction surgery can eliminate fat pockets from any area of the body, such as the thighs, abdomen, arms, back, hips, buttocks, chest, face, calves, ankles, neck, and even the chin. This minimally invasive cosmetic procedure uses a small, thin tube called a cannula to suction the targeted fat, helping patients achieve a slim and balanced appearance.

Innovative technology has allowed for different liposuction techniques that improve accuracy and reduce the pain associated with this procedure.

• Tumescent liposuction, a standard form of suction-assisted liposuction, uses high volumes of fluid containing an anesthetic infused directly into the excess fatty tissue. Most plastic surgeons typically use local anesthesia rather than general anesthesia when performing this body contouring procedure.
• Ultrasound liposuction uses a specialized cannula that transmits ultrasonic vibrations that burst the walls of fat cells, liquefying the fat and making it easier to remove.
• Laser liposuction uses thermal and photomechanical energy to help liquefy the fat in problematic areas.
• Power-assisted liposuction uses a cannula with a mechanized movement, reducing the need to manually maneuver the cannula.

Today, liposuction is typically performed using the tumescent technique or with the help of ultrasound imaging or a laser. These modern technologies have transformed liposuction into a much safer and less invasive procedure.

Before your procedure, you will meet with plastic surgeon Dr. Lalla to discuss your goals and concerns with liposuction. After your initial meeting, Dr. Lalla devises an efficient liposuction plan to target your unwanted fat. We take care to carefully explain the procedure and ensure you are comfortable and confident throughout the process.

Depending on your personalized liposuction treatment plan, Dr. Lalla will use a variety of minimally invasive techniques to contour your physique. The length of a liposuction surgery depends on the number and size of areas that patients want to treat. After the procedure, most liposuction patients can return to work within a few days.
