There are few things more frustrating than eating right and working out hard, and still not seeing the body contour that you desire. Liposuction, also called lipoplasty, is a surgical procedure that permanently removes unwanted pockets of fat.
Safe and extremely effective, liposuction works almost anywhere on the body, restoring a contour that has perhaps gotten out of balance. The most common target zones for men and women are the abdomen, hips, and thighs. The end result of liposuction is a smoother, flatter, and more sculpted you. Dr. Nazarian offers VASER liposuction and Smart Lipo, two advanced liposuction techniques that facilitate precise sculpting while minimizing downtime after the procedure.
VASER liposuction, also known as ultrasound-assisted liposuction, uses ultrasonic energy to break down fat cells, making it easier to remove them while preserving surrounding tissues. VASER Liposuction allows for more precise sculpting, resulting in smoother and more defined contours. Patients typically experience less bruising and a quicker recovery compared to traditional liposuction. If you want to achieve a more sculpted look with minimal downtime, VASER Liposuction might be the ideal solution for you.
Smart Lipo, also known as laser liposuction or laser lipolysis, uses laser energy to melt away unwanted fat, making it easier to remove while tightening the skin. Smart Lipo offers precision and less invasive fat removal with minimal bruising and a faster recovery time compared to traditional liposuction. If you want to achieve a more toned and defined appearance with less downtime, Smart Lipo could be the perfect option for you.
Liposuction can be performed under general anesthesia in a surgery center or under local anesthesia in the office. During your liposuction Los Angeles plastic surgeon Dr. Nazarian will first inject a saline solution that contains adrenaline and a local anesthetic into a series of small incisions in the target area. This tumescent technique allows her to remove a larger volume of fat, decrease post-op bruising, and reduce swelling. Dr. Nazarian practices what is called Power Assisted Liposuction. With this type of procedure, a specialized cannula, which is a thin metal tube, is inserted into the treatment area. This suction tube vibrates back and forth very rapidly.
The vibration allows Dr. Nazarian to break up the fat with less “manhandling.” It also makes the procedure much faster and, thus, better tolerated. Dr. Nazarian also practices Vaser liposuction. Vaser liposuction, also known as Vaserlipo, is an advanced liposuction technology used to remove unwanted fat deposits from beneath the skin. Small incisions are made in the target area, allowing Dr. Nazarian to insert a special probe emitting ultrasound energy. This ultrasound energy selectively targets and breaks down fat cells while leaving surrounding tissues largely unharmed. The liquefied fat is then removed through a suction process. Lipo360 is another advanced liposuction technique offered at Nazarian Plastic Surgery. This holistic approach to liposuction addresses the midsection, flanks, and back all at once, resulting in a more comprehensive result. The right choice for you is going to depend on your individual needs and the size of the treatment area. All of these options will be discussed with you in detail during your initial consultation.
Liposuction is an excellent solution for those struggling with stubborn localized fat deposits that persist despite a healthy lifestyle and regular exercise routine. By strategically removing these exercise-resistant fat pockets, liposuction can smooth contours and reveal a sleeker, more sculpted silhouette.
Whether you're looking to reshape your abdomen, refine your thighs, or sculpt other areas of your body, Dr. Nazarian's expertise in liposuction ensures outstanding results. At our practice in Los Angeles Liposuction can target areas such as:
Liposuction offers several advantages, with its impressive versatility standing out. When considering Liposuction Beverly Hills patients can expect the following benefits:
Liposuction is great for both men and women of all ages. An ideal liposuction candidate is a patient with stubborn areas of fat that seem resistant to a healthy lifestyle. If you are eating your weight in kale salads, work out regularly, and still have love handles, then liposuction may be the answer. As with any surgical procedure, a potential patient must be in good overall health, a non-smoker, and, ideally, within 15 pounds of a maintainable goal weight.
However, it is important to keep in mind that liposuction is not a weight loss technique. This is something that a lot of patients don’t understand. With liposuction, Dr. Nazarian is re-contouring your body into its proper proportion. This is why it is often called liposculpture. Depending on how much fat is removed, you will lose some pounds, but these results are only as permanent as your ability to maintain your weight. The fat cells that are removed with liposuction are gone for good. But if you gain weight after your procedure, typically in excess of ten pounds, your remaining fat cells will get bigger, which can throw off the new contour that you’ve worked so hard to achieve.
This is why Dr. Nazarian encourages her liposuction patients to:
In general, most patients are feeling so good about themselves after liposuction that making their health a priority is not a problem.
Initial results from liposuction can be seen almost immediately, with the treated areas showing noticeable slimming and smoothing soon after surgery as the excess fat is removed. However, it can take three to six months for residual swelling to fully subside, unveiling liposuction's final contoured and sculpted outcomes.
If a stable weight is maintained, the fat cells removed by liposuction will not return or regenerate. This means patients can enjoy their sleeker contours long-term for many years to come. Even weight fluctuations will be more evenly distributed for a smoother look without those stubborn pockets reforming.
As of 2023, advancements in liposuction have led to better outcomes and reduced recovery times. Smaller liposuction procedures can have a recovery that takes just a few days, whereas a more complete procedure like Lipo360 could come with a few weeks of downtime.
Immediately after surgery, you’ll have some swelling, discomfort, inflammation, and numbness in the treatment area. The area also might feel firm to the touch as a result of swelling. This is normal and typically resolves itself within four to six weeks. Most people can return to all of their normal routines, including vigorous exercise, within a month of liposuction. Dr. Nazarian will give you a breakdown of your personal recovery timeline based on your individual treatment area as part of your consultation.
