Advanced Tumescent Liposuction in Minnetonka, MN | SP Plastic Surgery, LLC

Understanding Tumescent Liposuction

Tumescent liposuction offers a specialized approach to removing unwanted fat deposits from various body areas. This advanced technique involves injecting a special fluid that firms fat cells, enabling precise and minimally invasive fat removal.

How Tumescent Liposuction Works

During the procedure, a carefully formulated tumescent solution is injected into targeted areas. This solution helps:

  • Shrink blood vessels to minimize bleeding
  • Provide local anesthesia for patient comfort
  • Make fat cells easier to extract

Key Benefits of Tumescent Liposuction

  • Reduced surgical bleeding
  • Minimized patient discomfort
  • More manageable fat extraction
  • Less severe post-procedure side effects
  • Faster recovery time

Body Areas Treatable with Liposuction

SP Plastic Surgery offers comprehensive liposuction treatments targeting multiple body regions, including:

  • Chin and Neck
  • Upper Arms
  • Chest and Back
  • Abdomen
  • Hips and Thighs
  • Buttocks

Liposuction Candidacy Criteria

Ideal candidates for liposuction typically:

  • Are within 30% of ideal body weight
  • Have firm, elastic skin
  • Possess realistic body contouring expectations
  • Have not achieved desired results through diet and exercise

Procedure Overview

SP Plastic Surgery's board-certified surgeons perform liposuction using either local or general sedation. The precise procedure involves strategic fluid injection, careful fat removal, and post-procedure compression to optimize results.

Long-Term Liposuction Results

While liposuction permanently removes fat cells, maintaining results requires a healthy lifestyle. Remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain, making diet and exercise crucial for sustained body contouring.

Recovery Recommendations

  • Arrange transportation after the procedure
  • Avoid strenuous activities
  • Take gentle walks to promote circulation
  • Stay hydrated and manage swelling

First off I can't thank Dr. Peng enough for making me whole again! She did an amazing job on my reconstruction! I truly can not thank her enough! I am so very grateful I chose her to perform my reconstruction surgery. It is a process! I unfortunately had to have radiation after my mastectomy. Dr. Peng placed the expanders in. She was very direct when describing the process prior to placing the expanders. She did say that they would not feel the best and that they would be very uncomfortable. However, I didn't feel that they were too bad. I had them in for over a year prior to reconstruction surgery. As the surgery was nearing, I really wanted them out. My tissue needed time to heal as well as I needed time to enjoy my family and celebrate being cancer free. My family and I wanted to celebrate by taking a couple of vacations that we had postponed due to cancer treatments. Therefore, I went probably a little longer than needed in order for my skin to heal. However, the results are fantastic! Thank you, Dr. Peng, and your amazing and caring team. Having breast cancer and going through chemo, surgery, and radiation was a long and scary process. However, your team was the light at the end of my journey. I truly can't thank you enough.
