Sometimes, no matter how much you may exercise or follow a healthy diet, there are stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to the natural methods of weight loss. If you are in search of a solution to getting rid of these bothersome areas of excess fat, you may be interested in undergoing liposuction. I perform this procedure at my Northern Virginia practice, Widder Cosmetic Plastic Surgery Center. It is my goal to provide patients with a safe and successful experience when undergoing this procedure.
During a consultation, you will undergo a thorough examination. We can discuss your options in liposuction (“lipoplasty”), and create a personalized treatment plan to meet your needs. Some of the most commonly targeted areas include the arms, abdomen, and thighs. Based on the area(s) to be treated and amount of fat being removed, the most appropriate liposuction technique is used. Those available include conventional lipoplasty and MicroAire power-assisted liposuction. Regardless of the method chosen, small incisions are made in the target area in order to insert the cannula and gently remove the excess fat. Prior to your surgery, refrain from smoking for two weeks and from taking aspirin. Also, it is important to follow the diet sheet provided during your consultation.
Post-surgery, you may return to work in three to four days. You may resume exercise in two weeks. We can further discuss the liposuction recovery period during your consultation, as well as address any questions/concerns you may have. You may view liposuction before and after photos to see examples of patient results.
