Less Than Perfect Lipo Results


There are many different reasons that someone may end up with less than perfect results from a lipo procedure. He or she may have looser skin or pre-existing stretch marks which is a sign that the desired amount of post-liposuction skin tightening may not be possible. Some people may have had prior surgeries with large amounts of scarring which could significantly limit the potential for smoothness after a lipo procedure. Some patients may not have followed important aftercare instructions or follow-up regularly with office visits/phone calls as instructed. Some patients do not continue to exercise or diet afterwards to ensure optimal results. As with any procedure in any office, results may vary.

Check out Pacific Lipo's gallery of before and after photos to get a better idea of how results do vary for patients with different body types, prior surgical scars, varying degrees of skin laxity, etc. Although results may vary, one can still appreciate the significant improvement that may be achieved when the procedure is performed by an experienced liposuction specialist. That being said, patients must keep in mind that not everyone will be completely thrilled with their results, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that the technique used by the liposuctionist was poor. Sometimes our bodies don’t heal as nicely as we would all hope. The goal of any lipo procedure is to help every patient look much better but unfortunately not every patient will feel better despite all reasonable efforts.

Upper, Lower Abdomen and Love Handles

Helping active, healthy people improve there shape with Liposculpture.  A local San Diego patient expresses her experience with Pacific Lipo -


I came to Pacific Lipo for help smoothing out my lower abdomen and getting rid of my love handles.  My body image means a lot to me. I work out at least 4 days a week. I do spin classes, lift weights, and eat colorful meals. I have always kept up with diet and exercise and my body just stopped responding in those areas. Rod had originally told me I did not have much to remove in my abdomen and to think about it.  Because of the great pricing and confidence I felt in Rod and the whole staff, I scheduled my procedure. The procedure was very quick and Rod made me feel comfortable the whole time.  I even had my favorite music playing in the background.  Stefani, Jasmine, Letty, Wendy, and Cristina are awesome and have been there for me every step of the way. I am a couple months post-op and couldn't be happier. My tummy is completely flat and my waistline is tiny!  Thank you Pacific Lipo! -Inaur M. from San Diego, CA

Are You A Good Candidate For Tumescent Lipo?


Tumescent anesthesia liposuction can be of great benefit for most people who have fatty deposits in areas of their bodies that have not responded well to dieting and exercise. However, the best candidates for tumescent liposuction are active, healthy persons of average weight and good skin tone, and who have never had a lipo procedure to the same body part. Overweight individuals can also benefit from tumescent liposuction, especially if they are in the process of exercising and losing weight. The tumescent liposuction technique should be judiciously used in the morbidly obese. Ideal patients have committed to healthier habits and do not consider liposuction to be a substitute for exercising. Your liposuction specialist should listen to your goals of the treatment to better ascertain whether you have realistic expectations for what liposuction can and cannot do. It is best that liposuction patients have no significant medical problems. Age by itself is not a significant factor in tumescent liposuction.

The best way to know if you are a good candidate for tumescent lipo is to schedule a consultation with a tumescent liposuction specialist.
