Liposuction Surgery in Tacoma WA

When the body has accumulated fatty deposits, diet and exercise may be ineffective in reducing these areas. You have a certain number of fat cells; dieting causes them to shrink and increase. Our Tacoma liposuction is a viable option that can yield outstanding results by removing fat cells and reducing their quantity. The hands performing the treatment, as well as the type of liposuction system employed, have an impact on the ultimate result – you want a slimmer, more fit body profile – and Dr. Michael Cohen is known for generating significant results for his patients.

Who is a Liposuction candidate?

  • If you have a lot of subcutaneous fat that won’t go away despite diet and exercise.
  • If your skin is elastic and will not loosen as a result of liposuction.
  • If you want to alter the shape of your body.
  • The underside of the chin, upper arms, male chest/breasts, trunk, belly, waist, hips, thighs, and inner knees are commonly affected areas.

Most Tacoma liposuction patients are within a few pounds of their ideal weight and want long-term shape alterations to improve body contour and create a more appealing appearance. Improved liposuction techniques in Tacoma now allow for more fat removal. Liposuction can sometimes help people who are overweight.

Desired Outcomes

The contour and percent of the treated areas have improved over time. In or out of clothing, a more attractive form or physique. restoring a silhouette that has been lost due to aging, childbearing, or weight gain Reduce stubborn fat pockets that diet and exercise alone haven’t been able to eradicate. Reduce unattractive fat deposits on the buttocks, thighs, flanks, belly, or other areas of the body to boost self-confidence.

Liposuction Procedure Advantages

Our Tacoma liposuction is quite adaptable, since the gadget can remove fat from practically any part of the body. The cannula tube’s length enables for fat removal in bigger areas without the need for further incisions. The cannula tube requires only a small incision large enough to accommodate the extraction tube, and these small wounds heal more quickly. To reduce the chance of noticeable scars, these tiny incisions are inserted in carefully selected locations of the body.

A Liposuction Procedure is described as follows:

The technique is performed as an outpatient treatment.

Although local anesthetic may be employed, general anesthesia is most commonly administered to ensure the comfort of the patient.

For better patient comfort and safety throughout the treatment and during the healing phase, we use the most up-to-date surgical techniques and technologies. We use a super wet technique of penetration of the solution before your liposuction to achieve this effect, which is regarded the safest and most successful procedure.

Excess fat is removed by inserting the device into extremely small incisions established in inconspicuous areas around the fat deposits. This is done using the tiniest cannula possible and with cautious attention to the different tissue and fat layers.

The fat is extracted and disposed through the cannula. Sutures are used to close the minor incisions after liposuction in Tacoma is completed.

Liposuction Recovery:

Patients who have liposuction in Tacoma are given a compression garment to wear at home. Compression is recommended for roughly a month to minimize edema and speed up the healing process. Lycra or spandex exercise pants are typically more comfortable once discomfort or soreness has subsided.

Bruising and swelling normally go away within a week, and you’ll start to see a more appealing body contour with fewer fatty deposits.

As your body heals and the swelling reduces, the final effect takes shape over the course of 2-3 months. In follow-up sessions at our Gig Harbor WA plastic surgery center, we carefully monitor your progress.

Oral pain medicine can effectively alleviate the initial discomfort.

Other treatments that can be used in conjunction with liposuction include:

Additional operations such as a stomach tuck (abdominoplasty), breast reduction, breast lift, and breast augmentation may improve results. In reality, in healthy patients, combining liposuction with other operations makes sense, since it eliminates the need for several plastic surgery operations performed at different surgical visits. Combining operations can help you achieve a more enhanced, contoured, and beautiful look in less time by reducing time off work and overall recuperation time.

Many people might be good candidates for our CoolSculpting in Tacoma technique, which is a non-invasive fat removal technology. Dr. Cohen will assess your current health and recommend the procedure that will be most beneficial to you.

Liposuction is still at the forefront of plastic surgery research. There are a lot of claims about “smart” machines and “laser” devices nowadays. No verified prospective trial has shown that any of these techniques are superior to the current state-of-the-art conventional Liposuction that we employ. We’re always on the lookout for new and exciting experiences to share with you, and we’ll only share them with you if we believe they have scientific significance.

In actuality, liposuction is used as either a “touch-up” procedure or in addition to other surgical procedures such as breast reduction, abdominoplasty, mastopexy, mommy makeover, arm lift, thigh lift, or buttock lift
