Body Contouring Liposuction in Shrewsbury, NJ

Understanding Liposuction: A Powerful Fat Reduction Procedure

Liposuction is a sophisticated surgical technique designed to address stubborn areas of fat resistant to traditional weight loss methods. Despite dedicated diet and exercise, many individuals experience persistent fat deposits in specific body regions.

Target Areas for Liposuction

• Abdomen
• Upper back
• Upper arms
• Thighs
• Neck
• Knees

Liposuction Techniques

Dr. Alexis Parcells offers multiple advanced liposuction methods tailored to individual patient needs:

• Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL)
• Tumescent Liposuction
• Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL)

Procedure Overview

Liposuction is performed under general anesthesia in a licensed surgical facility. The procedure involves strategically placed small incisions and specialized cannulas to gently remove excess fat while contouring the treatment area.

Ideal Candidate Criteria

• Near ideal body weight
• Good overall health
• Active lifestyle
• Unsuccessful with targeted diet and exercise
• Good skin elasticity

Recovery and Results

Most patients can return to daily activities within one week, with full gym participation resuming around four weeks post-procedure. A compression garment will be worn to minimize swelling and support optimal contouring.

Long-Term Considerations

Liposuction results are permanent when maintaining a consistent healthy lifestyle. Weight fluctuations can impact surgical outcomes, so patients are encouraged to maintain stable weight post-procedure.
