WHAT IS LIPOSUCTION?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a cannula (thin tube) to suction excess fat from targeted body areas. Advanced Liposuction techniques, like VASER High-Definition Liposuction, utilize ultrasound technology to gently liquefy fat cells before removal, minimizing trauma and optimizing results.

VASER High-Definition Liposuction

Tseng Plastic Surgery offers VASER Liposuction, a cutting-edge technique utilizing ultrasound technology. VASER gently liquefies fat cells before removal, minimizing trauma and optimizing results for smoother, more refined body contours. VASER Liposuction can also be used for fat grafting procedures, allowing for natural volume enhancement in other areas.

Benefits of Liposuction

  • Improved Body Definition: Eliminate unwanted fat deposits from the abdomen, thighs, arms, and chin.
  • Enhanced Proportions: Create a more balanced and aesthetically pleasing body shape.
  • Increased Confidence: Look and feel your best in your clothes.
  • Improved Self-Esteem: Feel more comfortable and confident in your own skin.
  • Potential for In-Office Procedures: Liposuction can sometimes be performed in-office for smaller areas, reducing overall downtime.

What areas of the body are treated with Liposuction?

Liposuction can be a transformative procedure for sculpting a more defined and balanced physique. Here's a closer look at some common areas treated with Liposuction:

Arms

Liposuction can address stubborn fat deposits in the upper arms, often called "bat wings," creating a smoother and more toned appearance.

Breasts (Male)

Liposuction can be used for male breast reduction (gynecomastia surgery) to eliminate excess fat tissue and achieve a more chiseled chest contour.

Back

Liposuction can target unwanted bulges or rolls on the back, often referred to as "love handles," for a smoother and more sculpted profile.

Chin and Neck

Liposuction can refine the jawline and neck area by removing pockets of fat that can contribute to a "double chin" appearance.

Thighs

Liposuction can address fat deposits on the inner and outer thighs, creating a slimmer and more contoured leg profile.

Hips and Abdomen

Liposuction can target stubborn fat around the hips, flanks (love handles), and abdomen, leading to a more defined waistline and a flatter stomach.

Buttocks

Liposuction can remove excess fat from the buttocks while potentially enabling fat transfer for natural buttock enhancement in other areas.

Liposuction Candidates

At our practice in Bellevue Liposuction is designed to address those stubborn fat deposits that remain after diet and exercise. Ideal candidates are typically within 10 to 30 pounds of their ideal weight and have maintained a stable weight for at least six months. Good skin elasticity is also important, allowing your skin to retract and conform to your new contours after fat removal. Realistic expectations are critical—Liposuction refines your existing shape, not a dramatic weight-loss solution.

During your consultation, Dr. Tseng will assess your medical history, perform a physical exam, and discuss your goals. Age isn't necessarily a barrier, but very loose skin may require additional procedures. Certain health conditions like uncontrolled chronic diseases or poorly managed blood clotting disorders can also disqualify you. Ultimately, good overall health is crucial for a safe and successful Liposuction experience.

Combination/Add-On Procedures

Liposuction can be a powerful tool for body sculpting, but sometimes, combining it with other procedures can achieve even more dramatic and long-lasting results. Here at Tseng Plastic Surgery, we offer several advanced technologies that can complement your Liposuction procedure:

Renuvion

Renuvion is a revolutionary technology that utilizes controlled radiofrequency energy and helium plasma to achieve multiple benefits during Liposuction:

  • Skin Tightening: Renuvion delivers heat to the underlying tissues, stimulating collagen production and promoting skin tightening. This helps to minimize loose skin that can sometimes occur after fat removal.
  • Improved Tissue Coagulation: Renuvion seals blood vessels during Liposuction, minimizing bleeding and bruising for a faster recovery.
  • Reduced Risk of Infection: Renuvion plasma has antimicrobial properties, potentially reducing the risk of infection after surgery.

BodyTite

BodyTite is a minimally invasive technique that utilizes radiofrequency energy to achieve similar benefits as Renuvion:

  • Fat Removal and Skin Tightening: BodyTite delivers controlled radiofrequency energy to liquefy fat cells and tighten the skin simultaneously. This can be particularly effective for stubborn fat and loose skin areas.
  • Improved Blood Flow: BodyTite stimulates blood flow to the treatment area, promoting healing and potentially reducing recovery time.
  • Enhanced Results: Combining BodyTite with Liposuction can lead to smoother, more sculpted results with less downtime than traditional Liposuction alone.

FaceTite

Similar to BodyTite, FaceTite is specifically designed for facial rejuvenation and tightening alongside Liposuction for the face and neck. FaceTite utilizes radiofrequency energy to:

  • Reduce Wrinkles and Fine Lines: FaceTite tightens the skin by stimulating collagen production and smoothing wrinkles and fine lines for a youthful appearance.
  • Improve Jowls and Sagging Skin: FaceTite can effectively address sagging skin and jowls in the lower face and neck, creating a more defined and contoured profile.
  • Long-lasting Results: FaceTite offers long-lasting skin tightening effects, helping you maintain your youthful appearance for years.

Combination Procedures

Dr. Tseng Often Performs with Liposuction:

  • Fat Transfer to Face: Enhances facial volume and contours using the patient's own fat.
  • Fat Transfer to Buttocks: Provides natural buttock enhancement by transferring fat from other body areas.
  • Fat Transfer to Breast: Offers a natural alternative to breast implants using the patient's own fat.
  • Liposculpture of Upper Chest (Male): Utilizes VASER, Renuvion, and/or BodyTite to sculpt a more defined chest.
  • Liposculpture of Abdomen (Female and Male): Uses VASER, Renuvion, and/or BodyTite for a more contoured abdomen.
  • Arm Liposuction: Targets and removes excess fat from the arms for a more toned appearance.
  • Liposuction 360: Comprehensive liposuction around the entire midsection for a balanced and sculpted look.
  • Body Lift: Removes excess skin and tightens the body contour following significant weight loss or pregnancy.
  • Thigh Lift: Addresses sagging skin and excess fat in the thighs for a smoother, more contoured leg profile.

By combining procedures with liposuction Bellevue plastic surgeon, Dr. Tseng, can help you achieve a more comprehensive and harmonious body transformation, tailored to your specific goals and needs.

Consultation and Preparation

A thorough consultation is your first step to a sculpted you! During your visit, Dr. Tseng will discuss your goals, perform a physical exam, and utilize Vectra 3D imaging to give you a glimpse of your potential results. To prepare for surgery, you may need pre-operative tests, adjust medications, and focus on a healthy lifestyle. Dr. Tseng will also advise on stopping smoking and arranging post-surgical support for a smooth recovery.

Vectra Imaging

Vectra 3D imaging takes multiple body scans to create a high-resolution 3D model, allowing you to see your potential post-Liposuction results during your consultation virtually. This visual aid facilitates better communication with Dr. Tseng about your goals and expectations, ensuring you make informed decisions about your Liposuction journey.

Liposuction Procedure

Liposuction is typically performed on an outpatient basis under local anesthesia with twilight sedation. Local anesthesia numbs the treatment area, while twilight sedation keeps you relaxed and comfortable throughout the procedure.

The specific technique used depends on the area being treated and your desired outcome. Dr. Tseng offers VASER Liposuction, which utilizes ultrasound technology to gently liquefy fat cells before removal, minimizing trauma and optimizing results. The length of the procedure can vary from one to several hours, depending on the extent of treatment and the number of areas addressed.

Results, Recovery, and Aftercare

Seeing your sculpted results takes time! Initial improvements appear within weeks, with full transformation emerging as swelling subsides over the following months. Recovery involves some downtime for rest, followed by wearing a compression garment for several weeks to manage swelling and support your new shape. Dr. Tseng will guide you through activity restrictions, incision care, and scar management. Remember, Liposuction refines your existing shape and is not a weight-loss solution. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key to enjoying your sculpted physique for years.
