When diet and exercise fail to slim your midsection to the contours you want, minimally invasive procedures such as liposuction could help you reach your desired look. Abdominal wall fat can be tough to eliminate, but the combination of a healthy diet, regular exercise, and liposuction could show the results you have worked for.
At Deigni Plastic Surgery, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Olivier Deigni offers liposuction in Sugar Land as a solution to the problem of stubborn body fat. During your initial consultation, you and Dr. Deigni will discuss your hopes for improvement and evaluate your midsection. Dr. Deigni will then suggest the best procedure to help achieve your goals.
Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that focuses on fat in one body area. No excess skin is removed, and no muscles are tightened. For this reason, liposuction is routinely combined with other procedures that address excess skin or lax muscles, such as a drainless tummy tuck.
The best candidates for liposuction are people at or near their desired and ideal weight. Liposuction is not a weight loss method, nor is it used to treat obesity. Liposuction treats stubborn areas of fat that diet and exercise cannot erase. While the fat removal is permanent, you could still affect your other fat cells when you do not maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Liposuction is a same-day procedure done under general anesthesia. You can return home shortly after the liposuction is complete, but you will need someone to drive you there. Recovery time depends on the extent of your procedure, so discuss this with Dr. Deigni. After the procedure, you will wear a compression garment to help aid with recovery for one to two weeks. Mild swelling and bruising are not uncommon. You will have only tiny incisions, and any sutures used will dissolve without any need for removal. Most people slowly return to their usual activities over about one week and return to full, more strenuous exercise in about two to three weeks.
Fat removed during liposuction can be used to build up tissue in another area of your body. Some people choose to have a Brazilian butt lift or breast augmentation with their excess fat. It can even be used to improve some areas of facial contour as well as the labia majora or the hands.
Liposuction in Sugar Land can be used when other treatments, such as CoolSculpting, fail to give you the results you hoped for. When you have tried other fat reduction methods but are unhappy with the results, consider liposuction. It is more involved than other treatments, but you reap greater benefits.
As you research liposuction, you may see information about Liposuction 360, or circumferential liposuction, which we offer at Deigni Plastic Surgery. This is the best way to enhance the contours of your midsection more thoroughly than ever before.
You may not realize that you need to address your entire midsection with liposuction, not just your abdomen. This means targeting your flanks, lower back, bra line, and abdominal wall for a complete 360-degree approach. By paying attention to your entire mid-body, you will finally see a slimmer appearance.
The more extensive approach of Lipo 360 could produce a better aesthetic result and create less noticeable transitions between treated and untreated areas because Dr. Deigni can address a larger area with a single liposuction procedure in Sugar Land.
When you struggle to trim your midsection and have reached a point where you can no longer see improvements with diet and exercise, you could be ready for liposuction. The Lipo 360 process is the best way to finally whittle your waistline and enhance your shape. Call 281-721-4373 or contact us online and schedule your consultation with Dr. Deigni. You deserve the reward of liposuction in Sugar Land after all the hard work you have done.
