Liposuction Procedure Details

Dr. Grant Fairbanks performs liposuction to slim, contour, and reshape specific areas of the body by removing unwanted fat deposits. This surgical sculpting procedure can be used to refine body contours and shape in areas such as:

• Abdomen and waist
• Hips and buttocks
• Thighs
• Upper arms
• Back
• Inner knees
• Chest area for men
• Cheeks, chin, and neck

Liposuction is not recommended in conjunction with other large cosmetic surgery procedures due to increased safety risks. Dr. Fairbanks carefully follows all parameters to ensure utmost patient safety.

Candidates for Liposuction

Ideal candidates for liposuction in Salt Lake City are those bothered by extra fat that doesn't respond to diet or exercise. Other factors include:

• Unable to change appearance with diet and exercise
• Firm elastic skin
• Good physical health
• Stable weight
• Positive outlook and realistic expectations

Liposuction Procedure and Recovery

The liposuction procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia at a hospital or surgical center. Dr. Fairbanks uses small, inconspicuous incisions and a thin cannula to remove excess fat. A compression garment is applied post-surgery to help with contouring and swelling.

Recovery time varies, but patients can usually resume normal activities after a few days of rest. Strenuous activities should be avoided for 4 weeks. Final results are typically visible around 3 months after surgery.
