Restore Your Confidence with Liposuction

If you long for the confidence that comes with a slimmer, more sculpted figure, liposuction in Chicago may be right for you. Also known as lipoplasty or simply “lipo,” liposuction is a popular fat reduction treatment. Each year, millions of people turn to liposuction to reshape stubborn areas that resist diet and exercise. The liposuction procedure is safe, effective, and relatively simple. And the results look natural while offering long-lasting effects.

Some of the benefits of the liposuction procedure include the following:

Reduced fat deposits
Sculpted contours
Safe and effective
Short recovery period
Natural-looking, long-lasting results

Liposuction Q&A

Is Liposuction Right For Me?

Liposuction can generally target any deposit of excess fat, making it a popular option because it can address various issues.

If you’re generally in good health and have been battling pockets of fat that don’t reduce easily, liposuction is likely your ideal procedure to sculpt any of the following areas:

The abdomen – upper abdomen and lower abdomen (belly fat)
The flanks – the hips or “love handles.”
The buttocks
The neck and chin area
Inner knee and calves
The upper arms
The back and armpit area
The thighs – inner and outer thighs
The pubic region

The Day of Your Liposuction Procedure

There are different types of liposuction, such as laser-assisted liposuction (“laser lipo” or “liposuction laser”), power-assisted liposuction (PAL), and others. At Concierge Aesthetics & Plastic Surgery, we use power-assisted liposuction. Compared to traditional liposuction, power-assisted liposuction is faster and less invasive. This procedure also creates less surrounding tissue trauma, promoting more rapid healing. Nevertheless, all liposuction techniques follow the same basic principles.

The process will begin with your pre-determined anesthesia method, which we’ll establish during your consultation. During the procedure, the excess fat in your body is removed through a thin, hollow cannula inserted into the body through small incisions. The cannula is attached to a machine that generates energy to help break up and remove fat tissue. During the procedure, the cannula is inserted into the target area and moved back and forth to loosen the fat cells. It can then break up the fat and suction it out of the body while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This process is repeated until the desired amount of fat has been removed.

We’re also pleased to offer one of the least-invasive versions of the procedure available. This includes “tumescent lipo.” Before removing the excess fat, we will inject a sterile solution into the targeted fat tissue. This solution is known as tumescent fluid. It consists of salt water, lidocaine, and epinephrine. The saltwater breaks up the fat cells for easier removal. The lidocaine acts as a local anesthetic to decrease post-op discomfort. Epinephrine acts as a vasoconstrictor, causing blood vessels to constrict (or shrink.) This reduces blood loss, swelling, and bruising.

Recovery and Results after Liposuction

This surgery is an outpatient procedure. You can expect some temporary bruising, swelling, numbness, and tenderness in the treatment area following the treatment. A compression garment should be worn to reduce swelling and aid in healing. Strenuous activity should be limited for several weeks after surgery to allow your body time to heal. However, most patients choose to return to work within several days. As with any cosmetic surgery, individual experiences may vary. Swelling typically subsides within several weeks, at which point you will start to see your results. Your body will still be healing and adjusting to the changes made by the surgery, but the areas of your body where fat was removed will start to appear slimmer and more contoured. Once swelling fully subsides, you will be able to enjoy your final results. Results are generally very long-lasting. However, while liposuction can help you achieve a more sculpted body shape by removing excess fat cells, the remaining fat cells can still store excess fat. It is essential to continue a healthy lifestyle to maintain the results of liposuction surgery.

Liposuction FAQ

Is liposuction a good solution for weight loss?

Can liposuction improve my skin tone or elasticity?

How soon can I resume physical activities after liposuction?

Will the fat come back in other areas after liposuction?

Is liposuction a good solution for weight loss?

Liposuction isn’t a weight loss solution but rather a body contouring procedure. It’s best suited for individuals near their ideal weight who want to target stubborn fat pockets that don’t respond to diet and exercise.

Can liposuction improve my skin tone or elasticity?

Liposuction removes fat but doesn’t tighten skin. Ideal candidates for liposuction have good skin elasticity, so the skin can conform to their new contours. For those with loose skin, additional treatments like skin tightening may be recommended.

How soon can I resume physical activities after liposuction?

Generally, patients can return to light activities within a week and gradually resume strenuous exercise after about four to six weeks, depending on the extent of the procedure and personal healing progress.

Will the fat come back in other areas after liposuction?

Liposuction permanently removes fat cells in the treated areas, but it doesn’t prevent new fat from developing if you gain weight. Maintaining a stable weight post-surgery helps ensure the long-term results of liposuction.
