Stubborn fat can stick around even when you exercise regularly and watch what you eat. Liposuction targets specific pockets of fat to create smoother contours in areas that have resisted your usual efforts. It’s a body-contouring procedure, not a weight-loss solution.
At Southlake Plastic Surgery and Medspa in Southlake, TX, board-certified plastic surgeons Dr. Matt Novak and Dr. Mark E. Mason bring advanced training and decades of body-contouring experience. Together, they provide skilled surgical care focused on your individual aesthetic goals.
Where Can Liposuction Remove Stubborn Fat?
Liposuction can target localized fat in several areas, including:
- Abdomen and hips: Improve contours around the midsection.
- Buttocks and thighs: Address stubborn pockets of fat in the lower body.
- Knees: Reduce small areas of localized fat around the knees.
- Neck and chin: Create a more defined facial and neck contour.
We offer techniques such as SAFE Lipo and VASER liposuction, which use ultrasonic energy before fat removal. If you are considering a lipo laser treatment or another energy-assisted option, a consultation can help determine which technique suits your needs.
What Should You Expect During Fat Removal Recovery?
Your fat removal recovery will depend on the areas treated and the extent of your procedure. Bruising, swelling, tenderness, and temporary unevenness can occur after surgery. The practice generally recommends compression garments during the early healing period, and swelling may continue for several weeks. Most people can gradually return to their usual activities as healing progresses.
Results also develop gradually. Your body needs time for swelling to settle and the skin to adapt to its new contours, so your results won’t appear immediately.
