Liposuction has seen a surge in popularity at our Beverly Hills in Southern California office.
Our expert plastic surgeons at Galanis Plastic Surgery in Beverly Hills are committed to using all available tools to sculpt the ideal body for our patients, ensuring exceptional results.
Liposuction, also referred to as lipoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat cells from precise regions of the body.
Typically, it is employed to sculpt the contours of the stomach, hips, thighs, buttocks, and other zones where traditional healthy diet and exercise methods have proven ineffective.
This widely sought-after cosmetic surgery procedure offers individuals the opportunity to attain a more slender and well-proportioned physique.
Liposuction offers a multitude of benefits, primarily the ability to eliminate stubborn fat deposits, resulting in a slimmer and more balanced aesthetic. The majority of individuals opt for liposuction when conventional diet and exercise fail to eliminate persistent body fat.
Liposuction provides a lasting remedy for excess fat. Though it is crucial to maintain a consistent weight following the surgery, the majority of patients successfully sustain their post liposuction ideal weight.
Ultimately, an enhanced appearance brings a surge in self-assurance. If excess abdominal weight has caused discomfort in swimwear or “love handles” have restricted your choice of clothing to loose, baggy tops, you deserve a confidence boost.
Liposuction represents a secure, straightforward, and remarkably efficient approach to addressing isolated areas of excess body fat. It offers an excellent means to elevate your self-esteem and cultivate a more positive self-image.
After undergoing liposuction surgery as an outpatient surgery, patients can expect a gradual recovery process. While some benefits of the procedure may be visible immediately, full results may take 3 to 6 months to reveal themselves, depending on the extent of liposuction performed.
Pain levels vary depending on the treated area and the extent of the procedure, and oral pain medication may be required for 3 to 5 days. To support the healing process, a compression garment should be worn for 6 weeks after surgery.
There are no drains used in this surgical procedure, and all sutures are dissolvable. Liposuction procedure patients are encouraged to engage in light activities like walking, and they can shower the day after the surgery.
However, they should avoid heavy lifting of more than 10 pounds for 2 weeks, and driving while on narcotic pain medication is not advised. Moderate exercise is permitted after 2 weeks, but strenuous activities and heavy lifting should be avoided for four weeks.
The duration of time off work will depend on the extent of the procedure, typically ranging from 2 to 7 days.
Patients will have follow-up appointments at 1 week, 2 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months, as needed, to ensure a smooth liposuction recovery and optimal results.
The national average surgeon fee for a single liposuction treatment area varies. In California, the price range for liposuction varies considerably. Book your consult to learn exact pricing!
