The liposuction cosmetic surgery procedure removes stubborn bulges from the lower abdomen and thighs, and can correct uneven contours of the thigh. Liposuction remains the only time tested and most effective way of removing stubborn and unwanted bulges of the body by actually removing fat cells permanently. Studies have attributed the most serious complications of liposuction to result in cases performed under general anesthesia. Dr Umar performs the liposuction procedure under local tumescent anesthesia which has been shown to be the safest way to perform the procedure of liposuction. Very tiny stab wounds made for the suction cannula entery heal uneventfully. The results are natural and fulfilling to the patients. Liposuction can also be used to perform liposculpture, which is a method to change the contour of the body to meet the patients’ goals. Common areas where local fat deposits are typically requested to be removed in order to contour the body including the abdominal area, back, inner/outer thighs, calves, or buttocks. Popular facial liposculpture areas include the chin, jowls, and neck.
Other procedures that can achieve liposculpture results are methods such as using the zerona slimming lasers, mesotherapy, and lipodissolve are not nearly as effect as liposuction. Liposuction or Liposculpture allows the cosmetic surgeon to target specific areas with much greater accuracy and control. The pain of liposuction is minimal and patients are able to return to normal activity typically under 1 week after having the liposuction surgery. The procedure is performed by board certified dermatologist Dr. Umar in the most minimally invasive and safest method that utilizes no general anesthesia at his Los Angeles office in Redondo Beach. Liposculpture is very effective and therefore the need for a redo a second liposuction surgery in the same area is rare. Dr. Umar advises that patient satisfaction will be especially high if patients follow the instructions and live a healthy lifestyle after their liposuction surgery.
