ABOUT THE PROCEDURE
What is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery that targets and removes stubborn fat from areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, hips, and flanks. It’s ideal for individuals near their target weight who struggle with fat pockets that don’t respond to diet and exercise.
Liposuction helps refine and sculpt your body contours for a more toned, proportional appearance. While it’s not a weight-loss solution, it’s a powerful tool for targeted body shaping.
Your surgical plan will be personalized based on your anatomy and goals, which will be discussed in detail during your consultation.
Traditional or vaser?
Transform offers two approaches to liposuction. Your surgeon will recommend the most suitable technique based on your goals and anatomy.
Traditional Liposuction
A cannula is inserted through small incisions to break up and suction out unwanted fat. Effective for larger volume fat removal across multiple areas in a single session.
- Targets stubborn fat in the abdomen, thighs, arms, hips, and flanks
- Effective for larger areas and higher volume removal
- Performed under general anesthesia
- 1 to 3 hours procedure time
Vaser Liposuction
Uses ultrasound technology to gently loosen fat cells before removal, resulting in smoother contours and less trauma to surrounding tissues. Ideal for precision sculpting and high-definition contouring.
- Ultrasound energy targets fat while preserving surrounding tissue
- Smoother contours and faster recovery compared to traditional liposuction
- Minimally invasive with less bruising and swelling
- 1 to 4 hours procedure time
A thorough consultation determines which approach is appropriate for you.
CANDIDACY
Is liposuction right for you?
Liposuction can achieve smoother, more defined body contours through targeted fat removal. The procedure boosts confidence, helping you feel more comfortable in fitted clothes and swimwear. Recovery is faster than more invasive procedures and results are long-lasting when maintained with a healthy lifestyle.
You may be a good candidate for liposuction if:
- You're in good general health
- You're close to your ideal weight
- You have localized fat deposits that don't respond to diet or exercise
- You have realistic expectations and want to refine, not drastically change, your body shape
The goal is never to sell surgery. It is to ensure any procedure recommended is safe, appropriate, and likely to deliver a meaningful result.
THE PROCEDURE
What happens during surgery?
Liposuction is performed under general anesthesia and typically takes 1 to 3 hours. Multiple areas can be treated in a single session, based on your goals and safety.
Fat removal and contouring
1-3 hours
Small incisions are made in discreet areas near the treatment site. A thin tube (cannula) is inserted to break up and suction out unwanted fat. Your surgeon will contour the area for smooth, natural-looking results.
Closure and compression
Compression garment 4-6 weeks
Incisions are closed and a compression garment is applied to reduce swelling and support healing.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Recovery and aftercare
Most patients return to light activities within 5 to 7 days and resume full routines in 4 to 6 weeks.

PHASE 2
Weeks 2-4
Swelling continues to subside. Temporary numbness or tingling usually resolves on its own. Light exercise can gradually resume. Continue wearing the compression garment as directed.
PHASE 3
Months 2-6
Final results typically appear within 3 to 6 months as swelling fades. Fat cells removed are permanently gone. Maintaining your results requires a healthy lifestyle.
You’ll receive a personalized aftercare plan with clear instructions on wound care, medications, and lifestyle adjustments to support optimal healing.
