ABDOMEN LIPOSUCTION

AN OVERVIEW ABOUT

ABDOMINAL LIPOSUCTION

If you’re struggling with stomach fat, you’re not alone. Many people struggle to achieve a smooth, toned tummy, despite diet and exercise. Fortunately, there is a way to get the results you want: abdominal liposuction.

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes unwanted fat deposits from different areas of the body, including the abdomen. Abdominal liposuction can be performed as an outpatient procedure, and most people return to their normal activities within a few days. Best of all, it can provide long-lasting results.

Before considering tummy tucks or any other surgical procedure to achieve your desired look, you may wish to consider minimally invasive tummy liposuction from our friendly and highly-skilled team.

BEFORE / AFTER

The Abdomen Liposuction Process

To remove the excess fat in a larger abdomen or “muffin top”, we use tumescent liposuction to produce amazing results. Tumescent liposuction involves using an infusion of saline local anesthesia prior to fat removal to numb and swells the area. This liquid is then removed during fat removal resulting in a faster and safer procedure.

When removing a large number of fat cells in this area, a common concern can be sagging skin. Our cosmetic doctors will use your initial consultation to determine your skin retraction ability and give you an honest appraisal of the effectiveness of this treatment in your case. If you are more suitable for a surgical or invasive procedure, you will be advised and referred to a reputable plastic surgeon.

For those with smaller abdomens, strategically targeted traditional liposuction procedures can help to contour the area to highlight muscle definition. Although only small amounts of fat are removed, the difference post-recovery is nothing short of amazing!

ABDOMINAL LIPOSUCTION RECOVERY

How long it will take you to recover from abdominal liposuction depends on a few factors, including the extent of the surgery, your age and health, and how well you follow your post-operative instructions. Most people feel well enough to return to work and do everyday activities within a week. However, avoiding strenuous activity for at least four to six weeks is important to allow your body to heal correctly. You will also need to wear a compression garment for several weeks to help reduce swelling. It usually takes about two months to fully recover from abdominal liposuction. Of course, every patient is different, so follow your cosmetic doctor’s specific instructions.

UPPER ABDOMINAL LIPOSUCTION

Upper abdominal liposuction is one of many cosmetic surgery procedures that can help to sculpt and contour the waistline. It’s also one of the most effective. The procedure involves the removal of excess fat and tissue from the upper abdomen and the sides of the rib cage, which can help to create a more youthful and slim silhouette. Upper abdominal liposuction is typically performed using a small, blunt cannula. The cannula is inserted through a small incision in the skin, and the excess fat and tissue are suctioned out. Upper abdominal liposuction can be an excellent way to improve your appearance and boost your confidence.

LOWER ABDOMINAL LIPOSUCTION

If you are unhappy with the appearance of your lower abdomen, you might like to consider lower abdominal liposuction. This procedure can help to sculpt and contour the area, giving you a more toned and shapely look. Lower abdominal liposuction can be performed independently or in conjunction with other procedures, such as upper abdominal liposuction. The exact technique will depend on your individual goals and preferences.
