Body Contouring Liposuction in Austin, TX

Understanding Liposuction Procedures

Lipoplasty, commonly known as liposuction, is an advanced body contouring procedure targeting specific fat deposits that resist traditional diet and exercise strategies. This surgical technique selectively removes fat from areas like the neck, breasts, abdomen, hips, and thighs.

How Liposuction Works

Unlike a tummy tuck, which uses a long incision to remove excess skin, liposuction utilizes small incisions to access and permanently remove fat cells. The procedure enhances body contours and can be combined with other cosmetic surgeries like breast augmentation or neck rejuvenation.

Key Benefits of Liposuction

• Permanent removal of targeted fat cells
• Minimally invasive procedure
• Quick recovery time
• Improved body symmetry and proportions

Treatment Areas

• Women: Abdomen, breasts, hips, thighs, knees, arms, buttocks

Candidate Qualifications

Ideal liposuction candidates have realistic expectations, are in good health, and are likely to be satisfied with potential body contouring outcomes. While the procedure can provide substantial improvements, absolute perfection is rare.
