Understanding Fat Reduction with Liposuction

Even with proper diet and exercise, stubborn fat pockets can remain in various body areas. Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure designed to eliminate these resistant fat deposits, helping patients achieve smoother, more defined body contours.

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a precise fat reduction procedure that uses medical vacuum technology to remove unwanted fat cells through suction. This versatile treatment can address fat deposits in multiple body regions with minimal invasiveness.

Liposuction is not a weight-loss solution but a body contouring procedure best suited for patients who:

• Have good skin elasticity
• Maintain a healthy lifestyle
• Have realistic expectations

Treatment Areas

• Abdomen
• Thighs

Liposuction Techniques

Dr. Willard offers multiple advanced liposuction techniques, including:

• Tumescent liposuction

Procedure Overview

The liposuction process involves small incisions, fat liquefaction, and precise fat removal using a thin cannula connected to a medical vacuum device. Anesthesia options include general anesthesia, IV sedation, and local anesthetic techniques.

Combination Procedures

Liposuction can be combined with other surgical procedures like tummy tucks, arm lifts, and breast surgeries to enhance overall body contouring results.

Recovery and Results

Most patients return to work within days and can resume exercise after six weeks. Results are typically visible immediately, with full outcomes apparent after swelling subsides. Maintaining a stable weight is crucial for preserving liposuction results.
