Despite eating a healthy diet and exercising regularly, are you tired of looking at stubborn pockets of fat that just won't go away? If this is the case, then it may be time to turn to liposuction. Considered to be one of the most popular cosmetic procedures for both men and women, liposuction has a unique ability to contour and sculpt almost any part of the body. Not only does liposuction improve your appearance, but it is also a major self-esteem booster. For patients in Northern Virginia with disproportionate body frames, this cosmetic procedure can make the body appear more svelte and proportional. When performed by a highly-skilled plastic surgeon, liposuction can be an excellent solution for reducing stubborn fat and feeling confident about the way your body looks. The plastic surgeons at Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery in Reston, VA, have many years of experience in performing various liposuction techniques. Their expert advice and extensive training help patients determine the best techniques and possible combinations to help them achieve their ultimate aesthetic goals. Read below for some information about how liposuction can help you eliminate unwanted fat.

Targeted areas for liposuction

The term “body contouring” is all the buzz as men and women explore cosmetic surgery options to achieve their “perfect” body. Liposuction is tried and true for its ability to restore and contour bodies for a more defined appearance. One of the main reasons that liposuction is such a popular body contouring technique is due to its ability to address both small and large target areas on patients in Northern Virginia. While it is commonly used to remove excess fatty tissue from areas such as the hips, thighs, abdomen, arms, waist, and neck, it is also an effective method for other smaller areas including the “double chin.”

Men typically choose to focus their liposuction treatment on their abdominal area while women want help with thinner looking thighs and toned abdominals.Whether it is a small bulge or a thicker layer of fat, the plastic surgeons at Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery can expertly remove unwanted fat with liposuction.

How is liposuction performed?

Patients who have maintained a healthy weight and want to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise can turn to liposuction for assistance. Liposuction sculpts targeted areas to delete unwanted fat cells permanently. This cosmetic procedure uses the latest medical technology to remove fatty tissue with less scarring and more precision. During treatment, a micro-sized incision is made under a local anesthetic as the plastic surgeon employs the use of a small cannula device to loosen and remove unwanted fat. The surgeons at Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery have performed countless liposuction procedures. They expertly sculpt and contour patients' targeted areas to remove just the right amount of fatty tissue needed for delivering amazing results.

The proof is in the results

There are many noninvasive body sculpting techniques available to men and women in Northern Virginia. While these techniques often help reduce the appearance of fatty deposits in troublesome areas, traditional liposuction produces the most dramatic, long-term results. Liposuction delivers results that last and typically do not usually require repeat applications as long as patients maintain a healthy lifestyle. Although popular for patients wanting to forgo surgery and recovery downtime, noninvasive body contouring techniques can take several sessions to get the aesthetic results a patient desires. Traditional liposuction, when performed by the qualified, experienced plastic surgeons at Austin-Weston, The Center for Cosmetic Surgery gives patients amazing results the first time around.

Maintaining your results

Candidates for liposuction surgery must be healthy, non-smoking individuals who have maintained their ideal body weight. Liposuction does reduce the total amount of fat cells in the targeted area, but if patients gain or lose weight, the results could be altered and new fat cells can form. For Northern Virginia men and women who want to enjoy their liposuction for many years, it is highly recommended that patients continue remain at their ideal weight or close to it. If you notice other pockets of fat in the same general area after your initial procedure, a second liposuction procedure in the future can always be performed. It is not uncommon for some patients to opt for additional treatments at the same time as their liposuction procedure. Some choose to use the fat suctioned from liposuction into other procedures such as a Brazilian butt lift or a fat transfer to naturally enhance volume and shape. If despite the efforts of a healthy diet and regular exercise regime, your body is still holding on to stubborn fat, liposuction surgery can be life-changing.
