Understanding Laser Liposuction: Targeted Fat Reduction

Many individuals struggle with body shape despite rigorous exercise and diet. Factors like genetics, hormones, and life stages significantly impact body proportions. Laser liposuction offers an innovative technique that combines laser technology with permanent, targeted fat removal.

Ideal Candidates for Laser Liposuction

Laser liposuction is optimal for patients with:

• Stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
• Areas of disproportionate body composition
• Thinner skin or mild skin laxity

Candidates should maintain realistic expectations, understanding that this is a body contouring procedure, not a weight loss solution.

Precision Laser Liposuction Procedure

Dr. Chang Soo Kim performs laser liposuction as an outpatient procedure with multiple anesthesia options. The technique involves precise laser energy delivery to break down fat cells and stimulate mild skin tightening.

Procedure Steps

• Small ¼ inch incisions near target areas
• Local anesthesia infusion
• Laser energy application to liquify fat cells
• Fat removal using specialized cannula
• Minimal suture closure

Recovery and Expectations

Patients can typically expect:

• Mild post-surgical drainage
• Short-term pain management
• Return to light work within 2-3 days
• Resume exercise after approximately one week
