Liposuction Techniques

Plastic Surgeon Santa Barbara specializes in traditional tumescent liposuction, considered the gold standard in fat removal. This technique involves:

  • Local anesthesia infiltration
  • Epinephrine to minimize bleeding
  • Precise fat extraction

Patient Selection and Candidacy

Successful liposuction depends on careful patient selection. Key considerations include skin quality, weight, fat distribution, and realistic expectations. Dr. Neavin evaluates each patient to determine the most appropriate body contouring approach.

Procedure Overview

Liposuction is typically performed under general anesthesia, with small incisions strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. The procedure involves systematic fat removal using specialized cannulas, ensuring uniform and symmetrical results.

Recovery and Results

Post-procedure recovery includes wearing compression garments and avoiding strenuous activity. Final results develop over six months, with gradual skin tightening and contour refinement.

Procedure Limitations

Liposuction is a body sculpting technique, not a weight loss solution. Ideal candidates are near their target weight with localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise.

Can't say enough good about Dr Neavin. I'm fortunate to have had such a stellar surgeon piece me back together after a wild surfing accident. I went from unrecognizable to looking like myself again. Forever grateful for his work and would highly recommend.

Dr. Neavin did an amazing job on my lip filler! The results are full and natural-looking with minimal bruising. I felt comfortable the whole time, and I couldn’t be happier. Highly recommend!

I had the best experience with Dr Neavin! He listened to my concerns and delivered. He went the extra mile and came in Saturday and Sunday for my follow up. Awesome person and surgeon.

I recently had a facelift, lower lid blepharoplasty, and fat transfer with Dr. Tim Neavin, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, the entire experience was beyond my expectations. When I first met Dr. Neavin, he took the time to really listen to what I wanted. He explained everything in a way that was easy to understand and didn’t make me feel rushed or overwhelmed. He walked me through the procedures and made sure I felt comfortable with every step. His calm and caring nature put me at ease right away. The surgery itself went smoothly, and his team was wonderful, making sure I felt taken care of throughout the entire process. The recovery was actually easier than I thought it would be, and within a few weeks, I could already see the amazing changes. The facelift made me look refreshed and natural—no “pulled” look, just a younger version of myself. The lower eyelid surgery did wonders for the tired, puffy bags I used to have, and the fat transfer gave my face the fullness and balance that had faded with time. What I love most is how subtle and natural everything looks. Friends keep telling me I look great, but no one can figure out why. I feel like I’ve turned back the clock without losing what makes me, me. I couldn’t be happier with how it all turned out, and I’m so grateful to Dr. Neavin for his expertise and care. If you’re thinking about any kind of facial procedure, I can’t recommend him enough!

Facelift, neck lift, lower bleph, and a chin augmentation. I don’t look much different than before and my chin definitely is not right. I’m going to have to see a facial revision specialist….. the neck lift is the only part I’m happy with. 10 hours on the table, recovery was brutal. Not at all happy with the results for what I paid.
