For those struggling to eliminate stubborn fat pockets despite rigorous dieting and exercise, liposuction offers a highly effective solution. Dr. Jeffrey Lisiecki, a renowned aesthetic plastic surgeon in New York, provides advanced liposuction techniques to help patients achieve a more sculpted and defined body contour.

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat cells from specific areas of the body. During the procedure, Dr. Lisiecki makes a small incision in the targeted region and inserts a hollow cannula to suction out the unwanted fat cells. This method effectively reduces fat deposits in areas such as the abdomen, thighs, flanks, chin, and breasts, resulting in a slimmer, more contoured appearance. It is important to note that liposuction targets fat cells only and is not suitable for patients with significant skin laxity.

Benefits of Liposuction:

• Minimal incision required
• Permanent removal of stubborn fat cells
• Enhanced body contour and slimmer appearance
• Reduced recovery time and side effects

Dr. Lisiecki’s Liposuction Technique

Dr. Lisiecki performs personalized liposuction at his state-of-the-art surgical center in New York. The procedure can be conducted under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, depending on the patient's needs.

The process begins with a small incision in the treatment area. Through this incision, a cannula delivers a sterile solution containing an anesthetic and epinephrine. The anesthetic reduces pain, while the epinephrine minimizes bleeding and bruising. This solution causes the fat cells to swell and restricts blood flow, facilitating the extraction of fat cells with minimal bleeding. The procedure typically takes 1-2 hours for most areas, and the incisions are closed with sutures afterward.

Post-Liposuction Recovery

After the liposuction procedure, patients are required to wear a compression garment on the treated area to reduce swelling and bruising. Common side effects include redness, swelling, discomfort, bruising, and tenderness, which subside within a few days, although some swelling may persist for several weeks. Most patients can resume daily activities within a week, but strenuous exercise should be avoided for about four weeks.
