Areas Treatable with Liposuction

• Abdomen
• Hips
• Thighs
• Buttocks
• Upper arms
• Neck and chin area
• Inner knees
• Calves and ankles

Advanced Liposuction Techniques

Dr. Piro specializes in two primary liposuction methods to ensure optimal patient outcomes:

Tumescent Liposuction

This technique involves injecting a specialized "wetting" fluid containing lidocaine and epinephrine into the treatment area. The solution helps facilitate fat removal while minimizing bleeding and post-surgical swelling.

Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL)

UAL utilizes ultrasound energy to liquefy fat cells before removal. This advanced method allows for more complete fat extraction, reduced tissue trauma, and faster recovery periods.

Liposuction Candidacy Requirements

Ideal candidates for liposuction typically have the following characteristics:

• Stable body weight with localized fat deposits
• Good skin elasticity
• Realistic expectations about surgical outcomes
• Overall good physical and mental health
• Non-smokers or willing to quit before and after surgery

Recovery and Expectations

Most patients require only 1-3 days of recovery time. Dr. Piro provides personalized post-operative instructions to ensure smooth healing and optimal results. Patients should expect some temporary swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort during the initial recovery phase.
