BODY RESHAPING SURGERIES
Liposuction is a popular body contouring procedure that can help remove stubborn pockets of fat from various areas of the body, such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, and back. At our practice, we use advanced ultrasound-assisted and power-assisted liposuction machines to achieve optimal results for our patients. These state-of-the-art technologies help to break up and remove fat cells more effectively and with less trauma to surrounding tissues.
Ultrasound-assisted liposuction uses high-frequency sound waves to liquefy fat cells, making them easier to remove, while power-assisted liposuction utilizes a vibrating cannula to dislodge fat cells and facilitate their removal. By using these advanced liposuction techniques, we are able to achieve smoother, more natural-looking results with faster recovery times for our patients. If you are considering liposuction, it is important to choose a board-certified plastic surgeon who has the expertise and advanced technology to help you achieve your desired results.
A local anaesthetic, combined with sedation or a general anaesthetic, will be used depending on the size of the area to be treated.
Sampling from the fatty area is done using a very fine suction cannula. This tissue will be treated and filtered so that the intact fat cells can be used.
Reinjection is done using micro-cannulas that leave minimal scarring. The procedure lasts between 30–90 minutes.
The discomfort should be bearable, with bruising or swelling that subsides within 10–15 days.
There should be no sun exposure for at least two weeks.
There will be visible results about 2–3 weeks after the operation, even if they are not complete until after two months, when an improvement in the texture and elasticity of the skin will be seen.
Lipoabdominoplasty, also known as lipotummy tuck, is a surgical procedure that combines liposuction and tummy tuck to remove excess fat and skin from the abdominal area. This procedure is especially beneficial for patients who have undergone significant weight loss or pregnancy and are left with excess skin and stubborn fat in the abdominal area.
During the procedure, the surgeon will first perform liposuction to remove excess fat. Then, they will make an incision in the lower abdomen to remove excess skin and tighten the abdominal muscles. The remaining skin is then re-draped over the abdomen, creating a smoother, flatter appearance.
It is important to note that lipotummy tuck is a major surgical procedure that should only be performed by a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive experience in body contouring surgery. After the procedure, patients should follow their surgeon’s post-operative care instructions, including wearing a compression garment and avoiding strenuous activities for several weeks. Proper post-operative care, including lymphatic massages, can help ensure a smoother recovery and optimal results.

Thigh Liposuction and Thigh Lift with liposuction are both body contouring procedures designed to improve the appearance of the thighs. However, they serve different purposes and address different concerns.
Thigh Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that removes excess fat from the thighs through small incisions using a thin tube called a cannula. This procedure is ideal for patients with stubborn pockets of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction can help to sculpt the thighs and create a more proportionate and toned appearance.
A thigh lift with liposuction, on the other hand, is a more extensive surgical procedure that not only removes excess fat but also addresses loose skin and sagging tissue in the thigh area. This procedure involves removing excess skin and tissue from the inner or outer thighs, and may be combined with liposuction to further contour the thighs. A thigh lift with liposuction is ideal for patients who have lost a significant amount of weight, or who have loose, sagging skin due to aging or genetics.
It is important to note that the needs of each patient are unique, and the best treatment plan will depend on factors such as the patient’s anatomy, goals, and overall health. A thorough consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon can help determine which procedure is right for you.

Arm liposuction and arm lift with liposuction are two different procedures with different goals. Arm liposuction involves removing excess fat from the arms using a small cannula. This procedure is suitable for patients with excess fat in the arms but without excessive skin laxity. On the other hand, an arm lift with liposuction involves removing both excess fat and skin from the arms.
This procedure is suitable for patients with significant skin laxity and sagging in the upper arms. It’s important to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to determine which procedure is best for your individual needs.

Calf liposuction is a procedure that removes excess fat from the calves to create a slimmer and more toned appearance. It is typically performed on patients who have stubborn fat deposits in the lower leg that cannot be eliminated through diet and exercise. The recovery period for calf liposuction can be longer than other areas of the body due to the importance of the calves in weight-bearing and walking.
Patients will need to wear compression garments and avoid high-impact activities for several weeks to ensure proper healing. It is important to choose a skilled and experienced plastic surgeon for calf liposuction to minimize the risk of complications and achieve the best possible results.
