Liposculpture - Progression Throughout The Healing Process

Liposculpture is a minimally invasive way to permanently and immediately remove fat cells.  Although a change in shape can be seen immediately after procedure, your body will continue to improve over time.  It takes time for the body to heal and swelling to decrease after  procedure.  The before and after photos of this patient are a great example of the progression that occurs during the healing process.

Despite regular exercise and a healthy eating habits, this individual struggled to flatten her belly and trim her love handles.  She turned to liposculpture to provide a better contour to her problem areas.  She was very pleased with her results shortly after her procedure, but was told results would continue to improve over the next few months.  The patient returned for another follow up appointment 4 months after her procedure and was even more excited about her shape.  She had lost several inches from her abdomen and love handles.

After any procedure, it is important to follow after care instructions, ask questions when they arise, and return for follow up appointments.  Maintaining a relationship and communication with your provider will help you to achieve optimal results.

FAQs - What Can I Expect After Surgery?

Following your procedure, we will explain your healing process and how to achieve max results.  Since liposculpture is minimally invasive and performed under a local anesthetic, you will be perfectly fine to safely drive yourself home after the procedure.  

For a day or two, you can expect to feel tired, as though your body has been through a workout - and it has!  The areas treated will be stiff and sore, and you may experience some discomfort, burning, swelling, bruising or temporary numbness.  The tumescent solution often provides many hours of pain free comfort, and you will be provided with medication to relieve any residual discomfort following your procedure.

You will be wearing a compression garment around the areas treated.  This decreases swelling, helps mold the new shape, and provides support and comfort.  Garments must be worn following the procedure for comfort and to improve results. Duration of garment wear varies on an individual basis and will be determined by our Director of Surgery, Rod Davis PA-C.

Follow up appointments are free and encouraged.  Our team at Pacific Lipo would like to see you during your recovery process and make sure you are getting the best results possible.  Patients usually return 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after their procedure.  If you are coming from out of town, that is not a problem!  Most follow up appointments can be done virtually through email with photos and phone calls. 

 I just had my 6 month follow up and am still very amazed at my results.  The staff was amazing as usual!  I am so happy that I had another smaller area done.  I was in and out in no time and am already so impressed with the results.  A huge thank you to everyone at Pacific Lipo for bringing back my confidence!   -Lynette M. from San Diego, CA
