Elevated Aesthetics
Your Liposuction Procedure
Procedure
During the consultation for liposuction Chicago plastic surgeon, Dr. Kapadia, evaluates the patient's concerns, discusses their aesthetic goals, and reviews their medical history. Liposuction patients may need to stop certain medications and supplements pre-surgery to minimize risks. Pre-operative instructions ensure a smooth procedure.
At our practice in Chicago, liposuction is performed under local or general anesthesia based on the extent of the treatment and patient preference. It involves very small incisions. Dr. Kapadia uses a cannula to suction excess fat, sculpting the desired contours. The procedure duration varies based on the number of treatment areas and the amount of fat removed.
Laser-Assisted Liposuction
Laser-assisted liposuction utilizes laser energy to liquefy fat before suctioning it out, aiding in smoother contouring and tighter skin. This minimally invasive technique reduces bruising and downtime compared to traditional liposuction.
Tumescent liposuction
In tumescent liposuction, a special solution containing saline, adrenaline, and anesthetic is injected into the targeted area, causing the fat cells to become firmer and easier to remove. The tumescent solution also helps minimize blood loss and reduces discomfort during and after the procedure. This method is known for its precision and ability to sculpt the body with minimal scarring and downtime.
Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL)
Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction is an advanced technique for enhancing fat removal and body contouring. During the procedure, ultrasound energy is applied to the targeted area, liquefying the fat cells and making them easier to remove through suction. This method allows for more precise and thorough fat removal, particularly in areas with dense or fibrous tissue.
UAL is especially effective for treating areas like the abdomen, thighs, and flanks. Additionally, the use of ultrasound energy can stimulate collagen production, leading to improved skin tightening and smoother results. Dr. Kapadia specializes in UAL, offering patients in Chicago, IL, and surrounding areas a safe and effective way to achieve their desired body contours with minimal scarring and downtime.
