Frustrated with stubborn pockets of fat despite a healthy diet and frequent exercise? Many people experience this difficulty, mistakenly thinking they aren’t restricting calories or exercising hard enough.
Resistant fat is the real issue, and for some, no lifestyle changes will completely eliminate it. At Southlake Plastic Surgery & Med Spa, we remove resistant fat with liposuction near Grapevine, TX.
What is liposuction?
Liposuction uses small tubes called cannulas to suction fat cells from localized areas around your body. This advanced technique allows your surgeon to contour targeted spots, improving your overall figure. While liposuction reshapes your body, it’s not a weight loss method.
How much does liposuction cost?
Liposuction costs fluctuate based on the extent of your needs and goals, as the procedure is different for every patient. The most influential factor in the price is the number of body areas you’re treating. Common treatment areas for liposuction include the:
- Abdomen
- Buttocks
- Hips
- Thighs
- Knees
- Neck
- Chin

How long does liposuction last?
Liposuction permanently removes fat cells, minimizing resistant fat. To keep these benefits, however, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial, as your remaining fat cells can still fluctuate in size. Without a balanced diet and regular exercise, your fat cells may grow, even in areas treated with liposuction.
How much downtime does liposuction require?
Most patients return to their normal routine after 2 to 3 weeks. During this time, take it easy as your incisions heal and your mild bruising and swelling subside. We’ll provide a compression garment for you to wear over your treated areas to support the incision and smooth out your new contours.
Ditch Resistant Fat & Define Your Figure
Pushing your body too hard trying to eliminate resistant fat can be dangerous—let us help you. If liposuction isn’t the answer, we can still help you find your ideal solution, including options such as a body lift for loose skin or other personalized approaches to your transformation.
