Saying Goodbye Never Felt So Good

Liposuction

Interested in removing cellulite and stubborn fat? A Liposuction is a great way to sculpt and reshape troublesome areas of your body.

Thinking of Toning Your Look?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from different areas of the body, including the chin, neck, upper arms, breasts, abdomen, buttocks, hips, thighs, knees, calves, and ankles.

Liposuction Benefits

  • Liposuction has many benefits including:
  • Achieves a slimmer, more toned body shape
  • Improves body contours and proportion
  • Reduces the risk of developing certain health conditions caused by excess fat cells
  • Increases mobility, comfort, and skin elasticity
  • Enhances self-confidence

Lipo 360

At BCSG in addition to traditional Liposuction, we offer Lipo 360 which is a comprehensive Liposuction treatment that targets multiple parts of the body at once. During this procedure, fat is removed from the abdomen, flanks (love handles), lower back, and outer thighs to create a more balanced appearance.

What Should You Expect From Liposuction?

During the procedure, the area is marked with a special marker to ensure the proper placement of incisions. Under local anesthesia, your physician will then inject a saline solution containing an anesthetic into the fat deposits. This solution helps to shrink blood vessels and reduce blood loss during the procedure. Once the general anesthesia has taken effect, small incisions are made in the treatment area, and a thin tube (called a cannula) is inserted to suction out the fat. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on how much fat needs to be removed.

Everything You Need to Know About Recovery

After the procedure, patients may experience minor bruising, swelling, and soreness in the treated area. It is important to keep the incision site clean. You should also wear compression garments for several weeks after the procedure to reduce swelling. Most patients are able to return to their regular activities within 1-2 weeks.

Who Makes a Good Candidate?

Liposuction is an effective solution if you are interested in fat removal and are resistant to diet and exercise. It is important to note that Liposuction is not a reconstructive weight loss procedure, but rather a body contouring treatment. Fibrous fatty tissue often dwells in the surface layers and is less receptive to Liposuction procedures. Therefore, it is best suited for those at or near their ideal body weight. Additionally, candidates should be in good overall health and have realistic expectations of the procedure. It is important to discuss any cosmetic procedure with a plastic surgeon to guarantee optimal results.

Commonly Asked Questions
About Liposuction

  • Although Liposuction is generally considered a safe procedure, in rare cases, more serious complications, such as infection or blood clots, may occur. In addition, embolisms may occur when loosened fat enters the blood through blood vessels ruptured during Liposuction. It is important to discuss any potential risks prior to undergoing the procedure.

  • The results of Liposuction are considered to be permanent as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet. However, it is important to note that weight gain can result in new fat deposits in the treated area. For this reason, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to keep your results looking their best.

  • Liposuction is typically not considered a painful procedure, as general anesthesia will be used during the treatment. Most patients experience some discomfort after the procedure, but this is usually mild and can be managed with pain medications.

  • Yes, Liposuction can be performed with other plastic surgery procedures, such as a Facelift, Tummy Tuck (Abdominoplasty), Breast Reduction, and more.

  • Liposuction reduces the number of fat cells in a particular location of your body. The area’s appearance and the amount of fat determine how much fat is eliminated.

Please see below for our specialty services

Lipo 360

Lipo 360 is a procedure that combines Liposuction for body contouring with fat grafting to transfer and shape harvested fat in areas such as the face, buttocks, and breasts. The procedure targets all three “360 degrees” of the body — the front, sides, and back — to achieve smoother curves and more appealing proportions.

Mommy Makeover

A Mommy Makeover is a combination of body contouring procedures designed specifically to address the changes in appearance that can be caused by pregnancy and childbirth. A typical Mommy Makeover includes Liposuction, a Tummy Tuck, and either a Breast Augmentation, Breast Lift, or Breast Reduction. This combination of surgical procedures can help restore your pre-pregnancy form and give you a more youthful figure.

Full Tummy Tuck

A Tummy Tuck, also known as Abdominoplasty, is a body sculpting procedure designed to remove excess skin and fat from the abdominal area. This surgery can be performed in conjunction with Liposuction for better contouring of the abdomen.

Mini Tummy Tuck

A Mini Tummy Tuck, also known as a partial Abdominoplasty, is a less invasive version of a traditional Tummy Tuck. It focuses primarily on the lower abdominal area and can be performed under local anesthesia with minimal discomfort. This procedure is best suited for those who have minor skin laxity or excess fat in the lower abdomen and does not require extensive sculpting.

Low Cut Tummy Tuck

A Low Cut Tummy Tuck is a more specialized body sculpting procedure that focuses on the lower abdominal area. With a Low Cut Tummy Tuck, the incision is typically done below the bikini line.

Brachioplasty

Brachioplasty, also known as an Arm Lift, is a body contouring procedure that focuses on the upper chest area. This type of surgery can help to improve the appearance of sagging or drooping tissue, giving you a smoother and more toned silhouette.
