Body Contouring Liposuction in Las Vegas, NV

What is Liposuction Surgery?

Despite dedicated diet and exercise, some individuals struggle with persistent fat deposits that diminish body confidence. Surgical liposuction is an advanced body contouring procedure designed to eliminate fat from areas like the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks, creating a more streamlined physique.

Benefits of Liposuction

• Effectively removes stubborn fat resistant to traditional weight loss methods
• Enhances body confidence by addressing specific problem areas
• Provides customizable treatment options
• Minimizes surgical invasiveness with innovative techniques

Candidacy for Liposuction

Ideal liposuction candidates are individuals at their target weight with localized fat deposits. Patients should have healthy skin elasticity and understand that liposuction is a body contouring procedure, not a weight loss solution.

Procedure Details

Liposuction is performed under general anesthesia in an outpatient setting. Surgeons use specialized cannulas to carefully extract targeted fat deposits through minimal incisions. Procedure duration varies depending on treatment areas.

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect initial recovery to take several weeks. Bruising and swelling are common in the first 1-2 weeks. Complete body contouring results typically manifest 6-10 months post-procedure, requiring patience and proper aftercare.

Advanced Treatment Options

While nonsurgical alternatives like CoolSculpting exist, surgical liposuction offers more consistent and dramatic body contouring results. Michael C. Edwards, MD, FACS provides personalized consultations to determine the most suitable approach.

Long-Term Maintenance

Maintaining liposuction results requires commitment to a stable weight. Patients are advised to remain within 5-10 pounds of their post-surgical weight to preserve their enhanced body contour.
