What Is Liposuction?
Liposuction — also called lipocontouring — is a surgical procedure that permanently removes unwanted fat cells from targeted areas of the body. By eliminating stubborn fat deposits, it creates smoother contours and improved body proportions.
While not a weight-loss procedure, liposuction can dramatically reshape and refine your silhouette, helping you achieve the sculpted appearance that diet and exercise alone can't deliver.

Techniques
01
A specialized solution of saline and medication is infused into the treatment area before fat removal — improving comfort, reducing bleeding, and making contouring more precise and efficient.
02
Advanced ultrasound technology gently breaks apart fat cells before removal, allowing for enhanced precision. VASER may improve both recovery time and contouring results compared to traditional methods.
03
Designed for patients seeking enhanced body definition, this technique strategically removes fat around natural muscle structures to create a more athletic, sculpted appearance.
Signature Procedure
Lipo 360 is one of our most popular body contouring procedures. Unlike traditional liposuction that targets a single area, Lipo 360 addresses the entire midsection in a single procedure — creating a balanced, circumferential transformation.
The result is a dramatically more contoured silhouette with improved curves and enhanced body proportions.

Your Questions
Honest answers about what to expect before, during, and after your procedure.
Is liposuction a weight loss procedure?
No. Liposuction is designed to contour the body, not replace weight loss. It works best for patients near their goal weight who have stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise.
Is liposuction painful?
Most patients experience soreness similar to an intense workout during recovery. During the procedure, depending on your plan, you'll be under local anesthesia, tumescent anesthesia, or monitored sedation — most patients report pressure and movement, not pain.
Will the fat come back?
The removed fat cells are permanently eliminated and do not return. Maintaining a stable weight helps preserve your results — the remaining fat cells can still expand with significant weight gain.
How much fat can be removed?
The amount varies based on your anatomy and safety guidelines. Your personalized treatment plan, including realistic volume expectations, will be discussed in detail during your consultation.
Will I need to wear a faja?
Yes. Most patients wear a compression garment for approximately 6–8 weeks following their procedure. The faja supports healing, reduces swelling, and helps the skin conform to your new contours for optimal results.
How long is recovery?
Most patients return to light daily activities within 1–2 weeks. Final results are typically fully visible within 3–6 months as swelling continues to resolve and the skin retracts.
