What is Liposuction?

Dr. Arturo Valdez: Specialist in Liposuction

Liposuction slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits and improving your body contours and proportion.
Liposuction can be performed alone or along with other plastic surgery procedures, such as a facelift, breast reduction, or a tummy tuck.

Liposuction is no longer just a surgical technique but has, become an art.

The art of sculpting the human body, creating curves and contours, and leaving well-defined muscle groups, is the current goal of this procedure.

With the use of this technology, it is possible to perform a 4-dimensional liposculpture that creates natural and spectacular results in patients who are ideal candidates for this technique.
Ultrasound-assisted liposculpture reduces postoperative pain and edema while creating beautiful noticeable results.

Microaire a new technology

MicroAire is a new technology designed to optimize the mobilization of fat deposits during liposculpture. MicroAire or PAL (Power Assisted Liposuction) uses vibrating cannulas that help us facilitate the mobilization of fat, decreases damage to tissues, and their blood vessels.
We can more precisely sculpt anatomical areas of the body, maximizing skin retraction. With this technique, the duration of surgery is reduced by up to 35%. For women and men who only considered performing liposculpture on some areas of theirbody, it is now easier and safer to perform a 360 degrees liposculpture that helps us sculpt, enhance and define the natural angles and curves of the body to achieve a defined and attractive silhouette
With MicroAire, it is possible to perform a SAFE Lipo. SAFE Lipo is one of the most innovative surgical techniques to perform liposculpture. It consists of 3 simple steps: separation of the fat, equalization of the fat, and aspiration of the fat.
With MicroAire, it is also possible to perform EVL (Expansion Vibration Lipofilling), which is a revolutionary, safer, and more effective fat grafting technique that allows the transfer of a greater volume of fat. With the MicoAire cannulas, it is possible to pre-expand the area to be infiltrated with fat, creating an adequate subcutaneous space to receive the fat grafting without damaging the deep muscle planes. This allows a higher percentage of fat cell survival for those grafted in the gluteal region and hips.

Preparing for your Liposuction

You will have a consultation with Dr. Valdez, be prepared to discuss:

  • Your goals for your appearance
  • Your complete medical history
  • Your current medications, vitamins, herbal supplements, alcohol, tobacco, and drug use

Dr. Arturo Valdez will also:

  • Evaluate your general health status and any risk factors
  • Discuss your options
  • Examine and measure different parts of your body
  • Take photographs
  • Recommend a course of treatment
  • Discuss likely outcomes of Liposuction and any potential complications
Be sure to ask your plastic surgeon questions. It’s very important to understand all aspects of your procedure. It’s natural to feel some anxiety, whether it’s excitement for your anticipated new look or a bit of pre-treatment stress. Don’t be shy about discussing these feelings with your plastic surgeon.

Liposuction Procedure

Step 1 – Anesthesia

Medications are administered for your comfort during the surgical procedure. The choices include local anesthesia, intravenous sedation, and general anesthesia. Your doctor will recommend the best choice for you.

Step 2 – The incision

Liposuction is performed through small, inconspicuous incisions. First, diluted local anesthesia is infused to reduce bleeding and trauma.
Then a thin hollow tube, or cannula, is inserted through the incisions to loosen excess fat using a controlled back and forth motion. The dislodged fat is then suctioned out of the body using a surgical vacuum or syringe attached to the cannula.

Step 3 – See the results

Your improved body contour will be apparent once the swelling and fluid retention commonly experienced following liposuction subside. With continued practices of healthy diet and fitness, the loss of excess fatty tissue should be permanently maintained. However, substantial weight gain can alter the results.

Recovery After Your Surgery

Once your procedure is completed, a compression garment or elastic bandages may cover treatment areas. These help to control swelling and compress the skin to your new body contours. In addition, small temporary drains may be placed in existing incisions beneath the skin to remove any excess blood or fluid.
You will be given specific instructions that may include how to care for the surgical site and drains, medications to apply or take orally to aid healing and reduce the potential for infection, specific concerns to look for at the surgical site or in your general health, and when to follow up with your plastic surgeon.
It may take several months for the swelling to fully dissipate. As it does, your new contours and enhanced self-image should continue to develop.

Liposuction Outcomes

Your improved body contour will be apparent when the swelling and fluid retention commonly experienced following liposuction subside.
The results of liposuction will be long lasting, provided that you maintain a stable weight and general fitness. As your body ages, it is natural to lose some firmness, but most of your improvement should be relatively permanent.
Although good results are expected from your procedure, there is no guarantee. In some situations, it may not be possible to achieve optimal results with a single surgical procedure and another surgery may be necessary. It is not possible to improve lax skin tone with liposuction.
