What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to remove stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to diet and exercise. It is commonly used to contour areas such as the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, and back, providing a more sculpted and proportionate appearance. While liposuction is not a weight loss solution, it can enhance body contours and help achieve a more toned look.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Liposuction?

Dr. Parizh in Long Island carefully evaluates each patient to determine if liposuction is the right choice. Ideal candidates should meet the following criteria:

  • Have good skin elasticity for optimal contouring
  • Maintain a stable weight with a healthy lifestyle
  • Have realistic expectations about the results
  • Struggle with localized fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise

Dr. Parizh's Liposuction Technique

Dr. Parizh’s liposuction technique expertly removes unwanted fat from desired areas of the body for natural, enduring results. During the procedure, a small incision is made near the target area, and a thin tube called a cannula is inserted to loosen the excess fat. This fat is then suctioned out of the body using a surgical vacuum or syringe. Liposuction is particularly effective for individuals close to their ideal body weight but struggling with localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise.

While it's not a substitute for weight loss, liposuction can significantly enhance body shape and improve the proportion of the treated areas, leading to more satisfactory and aesthetically pleasing body contours. The procedure can be performed alone or in combination with other cosmetic surgeries for a comprehensive approach to body reshaping.

What Can Liposuction Do for Men?

Dr. Parizh expertly customizes liposuction procedures for men, focusing on enhancing muscular definition and eliminating stubborn fat to achieve a more sculpted and masculine physique.

Benefits for men include:

  • A more defined abdominal area showcasing the appearance of "six-pack" abs
  • Reduced love handles for a trimmer waistline
  • Enhanced definition in the chest, reducing the appearance of gynecomastia
  • A more sculpted neck and jawline, contributing to a stronger facial profile
  • Improved body proportion by targeting fat deposits in the thighs and buttocks

  • A more athletic and toned overall appearance

What Is Recovery Like After Liposuction?

Recovery after liposuction varies by patient, but most can expect some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort in the treated areas. Compression garments are typically worn for several weeks to reduce swelling and support the new contours. Most patients can return to light activities within a few days and resume more strenuous exercise after a few weeks. While some results may be visible early on, final results typically develop over a few months as swelling subsides. Dr. Parizh in Long Island provides personalized post-operative care to ensure a smooth healing process.

Can liposuction improve lymphedema?

Yes, liposuction can be used as a treatment for lymphedema, a chronic condition characterized by excessive swelling due to a buildup of lymph fluid. The procedure removes fatty tissue and helps reduce the swelling and discomfort associated with lymphedema, particularly in advanced cases where other treatments have failed.

Is liposuction effective for lipedema?

Liposuction is considered one of the most effective treatments for lipedema, a condition marked by the abnormal accumulation of fat cells in the legs and arms. The procedure can significantly reduce pain and mobility issues by removing the fibrous fatty tissue that diet and exercise cannot address.

What are the risks of doing liposuction on very thin patients?

Liposuction in very thin patients carries higher risks of contour irregularities, dimpling, and unsatisfactory aesthetic outcomes. It requires meticulous technique and judgment to ensure enough fat is removed for improvement without overcorrection, which can lead to unnatural or uneven results.

Can liposuction be used to treat gynecomastia?

Yes, liposuction in Long Island is a common method for treating gynecomastia, the enlargement of breast tissue in men. The procedure can effectively remove excess fatty tissue, improving chest contours and helping restore a more masculine chest appearance.

Is liposuction safe for older adults?

Liposuction can be safe for older adults, provided they are in good overall health, do not have significant medical conditions that impair healing, and have realistic expectations about the outcomes. A thorough evaluation by a qualified surgeon is essential to determine suitability.

Does liposuction work as well as a tummy tuck?

Liposuction and tummy tucks address different concerns. Liposuction removes excess fat, while a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) also removes excess skin and tightens the abdominal muscles. If you have significant skin laxity or muscle separation, a tummy tuck may be more effective. However, liposuction can complement a tummy tuck by further contouring the body.

Will my results be permanent?

Liposuction results are permanent in that the fat cells that are removed do not grow back. However, if you gain significant weight after the procedure, the remaining fat cells can expand, potentially altering your body shape. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with diet and exercise helps ensure long-term results.

What is the ideal weight for liposuction?

The ideal weight for liposuction is someone who is close to their target weight but has localized fat deposits that don’t respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction is not intended as a weight-loss solution but as a way to sculpt and contour the body. Dr. Parizh will assess your individual case to determine if you’re a good candidate.

Will I have any scars from the procedure?

Liposuction typically involves small incisions, usually about the size of a pinhole, which are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring. Scars generally fade over time and are often well-concealed in natural skin folds. Dr. Parizh takes great care to ensure that any scars are as discreet as possible.

What procedures can be combined with liposuction?

Liposuction can be safely combined with various procedures for enhanced results. Common combinations include tummy tucks, breast reductions, facelifts, and body lifts. Dr. Parizh will discuss your goals to recommend a treatment plan that may include other procedures to help you achieve a more comprehensive transformation.

Can I get multiple areas of my body treated at once?

Yes, multiple areas of the body can be treated in a single liposuction session. Common areas include the abdomen, thighs, flanks, arms, and chin. Dr. Parizh will evaluate your overall health and goals to ensure that treating multiple areas at once is safe and appropriate for you.
