Understanding Liposuction

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to slim and reshape specific body areas by removing excess fat deposits and improving body contours and proportion. This targeted approach helps patients achieve more balanced and refined physiques.

Common Treatment Areas

Fat deposits are frequently removed from multiple body regions, including:

  • Thighs
  • Hips and buttocks
  • Abdomen and waist
  • Upper arms
  • Back
  • Inner knee
  • Chest area
  • Cheeks, chin, and neck
  • Calves and ankles

Ideal Candidates for Body Contouring

Patients best suited for liposuction are adults within 30% of their ideal weight, possessing firm, elastic skin and excellent muscle tone. Ideal candidates should be non-smokers without medical conditions that could impair healing.

Comprehensive Consultation Process

During the initial consultation, Dr. Mecham conducts a thorough assessment to determine surgical suitability. This comprehensive evaluation includes discussing surgical goals, medical history, current medications, and potential treatment options.

Liposuction Surgical Procedure

The liposuction procedure involves administering anesthesia and making small, inconspicuous incisions. A diluted local anesthetic is infused to minimize bleeding and trauma. Excess fat is then carefully suctioned through a thin, hollow tube using controlled movements.

Recovery and Results

Post-procedure, compression garments are applied to control swelling and support new body contours. Temporary drains might be placed to remove excess fluids. Patients can expect gradual improvement as swelling subsides, revealing refined body shapes.

Procedure Flexibility

Liposuction can be performed independently or in conjunction with other surgical procedures like facelifts, breast reductions, or tummy tucks, offering comprehensive body sculpting options.
