Liposuction in Los Angeles

Liposuction in Los Angeles - No matter how much you diet and exercise, there can be excess fat in certain places that sometimes just won’t go away. Liposuction, also known as liposculpting or bodysculpting are all terms to describe removing excess fat cells from targeted areas of the body. Liposuction is used to contour and shape the body and is often used as a complementary surgical technique to facelifts and body surgery. Liposuction is not a weight-loss alternative. It is a treatment for those persistent pockets of fat resulting from hereditary, age and areas unaffected by diet and exercise. The best candidates have good skin with healthy elasticity.

Liposuction in Los Angeles is safer and more effective than before due to advances in technology, technique and defined standards. All liposuction procedures performed in our Los Angeles office are essentially suction-assisted lipectomy, the removal of fat from the body through a form of suction. Tusmescence, a treatment administered just prior to liposuction involves infusing the areas to be treated with a solution to help plump up the fat cells to make them easier to remove, and control the amount of pain and bruising after the procedure. Even though technology has improved and the techniques have been refined, the ultimate outcome is influenced by the surgeon’s aesthetic eye. Dr. Edween uses small precise instruments to sculpt and create the smoothest contours and the most natural shape.

Recovery from liposuction is generally easy. Patients at our Los Angeles office are encouraged to be active since good constant circulation is essential to promote quality healing. Soon after surgery you will see a noticeable difference in the shape of your body with the results improving as swelling and fluid retention resolve over the next few months. You will be more confident in your appearance and your clothes will fit more comfortably. Maintaining your new shape is often becomes a priority, and encourages healthy eating habits and regular exercise.

Liposuction is a very individualized procedure in which your goals should be realistically determined and discussed with your surgeon in Los Angeles. Together you will determine what specific procedures will be performed. Liposuction is often performed in conjunction with other procedures such as abdominoplasty to achieve an effect that better matches the proportions of the body. Once your goals have been determined you will set a date for this procedure in Los Angeles and will be given instructions about how to prepare.

Abdominoplasty, more commonly known as a tummy tuck, is a procedure that smoothes and flattens the abdomen by tightening the muscles of the abdominal wall and removing the excess skin and fat. The best candidates are men and women who are in relatively good shape, but bothered by a large fat deposit or loose abdominal skin that won’t respond to diet and exercise. Women who plan future pregnancies should wait, since the vertical muscles in the abdomen which are tightened can separate again during pregnancy.
