Liposuction in Lake Mary, FL

Understanding Liposuction (Suction Lipectomy)

Liposuction is a sophisticated body contouring procedure that slims and reshapes specific body areas by removing excess fat deposits. This advanced technique improves body contours and proportions for individuals with localized fat accumulations.

Ideal Candidates for Liposuction

Liposuction is best suited for patients who:

• Maintain good overall health
• Have appropriate physical fitness
• Possess disproportionate body contours due to localized fat deposits
• Have fat pockets resistant to diet and exercise

Treatment Areas

Liposuction can effectively target fat deposits in multiple body regions, including:

• Thighs
• Arms
• Neck
• Hips
• Waist
• Back
• Inner knee
• Chest
• Cheeks
• Chin
• Calves
• Ankles

Procedure Details

Liposuction is typically performed under general anesthesia in an operating room. The surgical process involves small incisions hidden in natural body creases, followed by precise fat removal using specialized techniques.

Surgical Steps

• Infuse sterile fluid to reduce bleeding and trauma
• Insert a thin cannula through strategic incisions
• Loosen excess fat using controlled motion
• Suction dislodged fat using surgical vacuum

Important Considerations

Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity and cannot replace regular exercise and healthy eating. The procedure is most effective for individuals with stubborn fat areas who maintain an active lifestyle.

Recovery and Results

Post-procedure, patients will wear compression garments to control swelling and support new body contours. Full results may take several months to develop, with maintained results dependent on consistent healthy lifestyle practices.

Long-Term Maintenance

Improved body contours can be permanently maintained through continued healthy diet and fitness. Significant weight gain may alter the surgical results.
