Remove stubborn fat & elevate body contours
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that removes stubborn fat from specific areas of your body, helping you achieve a smoother, more contoured appearance. Whether it’s your abdomen, thighs, arms, or other areas, liposuction targets fat that is resistant to diet and exercise. Dr. Slack uses advanced techniques to ensure the procedure is safe and effective, delivering natural-looking results that enhance your body’s curves. If you’re looking to refine your silhouette and regain confidence, liposuction may be right for you.
Possible reasons to consider liposuction:
- Stubborn fat that doesn’t respond to diet or exercise
- Desire to improve body contours and symmetry
- Targeting specific areas like the abdomen, thighs, or arms
- Enhancing the results of weight loss or lifestyle changes
- Refining your body shape for a more youthful appearance
- Achieving a smoother, more toned silhouette
What can I expect during the consultation?
During your consultation with Dr. Slack, you’ll discuss your goals, concerns, and medical history. She will perform a thorough examination to evaluate areas of fat accumulation and determine the best approach for your liposuction. She will explain the procedure in detail and address any questions you may have about risks, recovery, and expected outcomes. Dr. Slack takes the time to ensure you feel confident in your decision. Together, you’ll create a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your aesthetic goals and overall health.
What happens during the liposuction procedure?
During your liposuction procedure, Dr. Slack will begin by marking the areas of your body that will be treated. You’ll be given anesthesia, either local or general, depending on the extent of the procedure. Dr. Slack will then make small, discreet incisions near the targeted areas and insert a thin tube, called a cannula. This cannula is used to gently suction out the fat. The fat is broken up and removed, sculpting the area to your desired contours.
What can I expect during recovery after liposuction?
After your liposuction, you’ll experience some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort. Dr. Slack will provide detailed aftercare instructions, including using compression garments to minimize swelling and help your body adjust to its new contours. You may need to take a few days off from work to rest, depending on the extent of the procedure. Most patients can resume light activities within a week, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for 4-6 weeks.
During the first few weeks, you’ll have follow-up appointments with Dr. Slack to monitor your progress and ensure proper healing. While most swelling will subside within 2-3 weeks, the final results may take a few months to fully reveal themselves.
Will my results look natural?
Yes, your results will look natural. Dr. Slack uses advanced techniques to carefully sculpt and contour your body, ensuring that the fat removal enhances your natural curves. The procedure creates a balanced, proportionate appearance, with smooth transitions between treated and untreated areas. As your body heals, you’ll notice a more toned and sculpted silhouette that feels like an extension of your natural shape. Dr. Slack’s meticulous approach ensures that the final results are aesthetically pleasing and authentic to your body.
How much fat can be removed with liposuction?
The amount of fat that can be safely removed during liposuction depends on several factors, including your body size, health status, and goals.
Generally, a safe limit for fat removal is about six to eight pounds in a single session. However, Dr. Slack will work with you to determine the ideal amount based on your aesthetic goals. It’s important to note that liposuction is not a weight loss solution but a body contouring procedure that can only target localized fat deposits.
