Why is Liposuction Done?
- Liposuction is done to permanently remove excess fat from areas that don't respond to diet and exercise.
- Dr. Armendariz should be consulted to determine if it's a suitable option and discuss potential risks.
- Recovery time varies according to the patient and the extent of liposuction completed.
- Patients can expect to return to work within 2-3 days depending on the type of job they have, and are typically fully recovered within 4 weeks. Compression garments should be worn for up to 12 weeks for optimal results.
How is Liposuction Performed?
Liposuction is a popular cosmetic procedure that removes unwanted fat deposits from specific areas of the body. The procedure involves making small incisions in the treatment area and inserting a thin, hollow tube called a cannula to suction out the fat. Here's what to expect throughout the liposuction process:
The Liposuction Procedure
During your liposuction procedure, specific surgical techniques will be used, which will depend on the type of liposuction you're undergoing. All methods involve breaking up and removing fat cells from the treatment area. General anesthesia is not used. Most patients can expect the procedure to last between two and four hours, depending on the size and number of treatment areas. Because it is a surgical procedure, liposuction should always be performed by a board certified plastic surgeon.
Recovery and Post-Operative Care
After your liposuction surgery, you'll likely experience some swelling, bruising, and discomfort in the treated areas. You'll be given a compression garment to wear, which will help reduce swelling and aid in the healing process. Patients can return to work within a few days to a week, but strenuous activities should be avoided for several weeks. You will be provided with specific recovery instructions and recommendations to ensure proper healing.
Long-term Results and Maintenance
Once the swelling has subsided, you'll begin to see the results of your liposuction procedure. while liposuction permanently removes unwanted fat, you will need to maintain an healthy lifestyle and exercise routine to maintain your results. It is still possible to gain weight in other areas of the body if you don't maintain a healthy diet and exercise.
How Do I Prepare for Liposuction Surgery?
Before your liposuction surgery, your surgeon will provide you with specific instructions to follow. These may include:
- Following dietary or alcohol restrictions
- Taking or avoiding certain medications and vitamins
- Undergoing lab testing
- Stopping smoking
It's crucial to follow your surgeon's instructions closely to ensure a safe and successful procedure.
Liposuction Techniques Offered at True Contour Medical
At True Contour Medical, we provide the best possible results for our patients.
Tumescent Liposuction
Tumescent liposuction is a popular and widely used liposuction technique. This method involves injecting a large volume of tumescent fluid (a mixture of saline solution, local anesthetic, and a vasoconstrictor) into the treatment area. The fluid helps to minimize bleeding, reduce pain, and make the fat cells easier to remove. Tumescent liposuction is known for its safety, effectiveness, and minimal downtime.
Popular Treatment Areas for Liposuction
Liposuction can be performed on virtually any area of the body where stubborn fat deposits are present. Some of the most popular treatment areas and services include:
Abdomen and Waist
Liposuction can effectively remove excess fat from the abdomen and waist, helping to create a slimmer, more defined midsection. This is a popular treatment area for both men and women seeking to achieve a more toned and contoured appearance.
Hips and Thighs
Many people struggle with stubborn fat deposits on their hips and thighs, which can be resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction can effectively target these areas, resulting in a more proportionate and shapely lower body.
Upper Arms and Back
Excess fat in the upper arms and back can lead to a flabby or undefined appearance. Liposuction can remove this unwanted fat, resulting in a more toned and sculpted look.
Chin and Neck
Liposuction can be used to address a double chin or excess fat in the neck area, creating a more defined jawline and a slimmer, more youthful appearance.
Determining if You're a Good Candidate for Liposuction
While liposuction can provide significant improvements in body contour, it's important to determine if you're a suitable candidate for the procedure. Here are some key factors to consider:
Ideal Candidate Characteristics
At True Contour Medical, there is no BMI restriction and most patients can move forward with their procedure as soon as they are cleared for plastic surgery elsewhere.
Realistic Expectations and Goals
It's important to understand that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but rather a body contouring technique used to remove stubborn pockets of fat. Having realistic expectations about the results you can achieve with liposuction will help ensure your satisfaction with the procedure.

It's important to consult with Dr. Armendariz to determine if liposuction is right for you and to discuss any potential risks.
