Eliminate Stubborn Fat With Liposuction in San Jose

Stubborn pockets of fat might get in the way of you attaining a svelte, toned figure. At Aesthetx, we offer liposuction, a surgical procedure that permanently removes excess fat through suction in order to sculpt the body. A procedure that's been used for decades and all over the world, liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries. Today, the procedure uses remarkable technology for faster recovery and beautiful results.

Everything from the abdomen, waist, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, chin, cheeks, neck, and upper arms can be contoured using liposuction. New technologies like VASER Lipo have emerged to offer extreme precision, advanced technology, and balanced, beautiful outcomes. Combined with Aesthetx's meticulous planning and aesthetic skill, your liposuction procedure promises a slimmer figure and stunning results.

How Does Liposuction Work?

Your liposuction will be performed in the best conditions. This surgery is an outpatient procedure and will be performed in a fully-accredited surgical facility under general or epidural anesthesia from a board-certified anesthesiologist. First, small incisions or "poke holes" will be made in the target area to allow the suction devices to access the fat. The incisions are small enough to be inconspicuous when they heal.

Dr. Zeidler uses the tumescent liposuction technique, where a saline solution containing various medications is pumped into the treatment area in order to prepare the fat for removal, decrease bleeding, and to deliver a dose of pain medication to help with recovery. A small tube called a cannula will then be inserted through these incisions and gently moved back and forth in a careful pattern to remove fat.

What Is VASER Lipo in San Jose?

VASER Lipo is an advanced form of liposuction that utilizes ultrasound technology to specifically target fat without disturbing other tissues in the body, thus leading to a faster recovery and a more precise treatment. After the tumescent saline solution is injected, a small probe is inserted into the treatment area that delivers ultrasound energy to break up the fat while sparing other tissue. The ultrasound energy sends out small vibrations into the treatment area, loosening the fat cells from other tissues and melting them, essentially killing the fat cells.

VASER Lipo is perfect for addressing more difficult areas, like underneath the breasts and around the upper back. Aesthetx offers VASER Lipo due to its capabilities for greater control and predictable results. Because it liquefies fat cells, it is not often used in conjunction with a fat transfer procedure.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate for Liposuction in San Jose?

If you're looking to eliminate stubborn excess fat that has been resistant to diet and exercise, you could be a good candidate for liposuction. The main mechanism of liposuction is the removal of unsightly fat, but not skin. That's why the best candidates for liposuction are patients with great skin elasticity so that the skin can wrap around the body again with ease after the procedure.

As beautiful as the results for Dr. Zeidler's liposuction can be, the best candidates for liposuction should also have realistic expectations for their results. Liposuction should never be considered as an alternative method to weight loss, and good candidates should be within 20 pounds of their ideal weight and have a healthy body mass index.

Ideal candidates for liposuction should also meet the following criteria:

Be in generally good physical health
Not be currently pregnant or nursing
Be a non-smoker or willing to temporarily quit

What Is the Recovery Like After Liposuction?

VASER Lipo offers a quicker recovery than traditional liposuction techniques. Most patients require about one to two weeks off of work or school and two to four weeks of avoiding strenuous activities. Your Aesthetx surgeon will help create a recovery plan for you, but keep in mind that Dr. Zeidler considers each procedure to be a collaboration and will be heavily invested in your aftercare and well-being. Your surgeon will follow your recovery closely to make sure your healing is going as successfully as possible. You will be given support garments to help with swelling, which will be worn for three to six weeks.

Some swelling, bruising, and lumpiness are to be expected, and Aesthetx recommends lymphatic drainage massage to smooth out your results. To further refine your liposuction results, Aesthetx offers the chance to complement the effects of the treatment with a postoperative VASER Shape ultrasound procedure. VASER Shape non-surgically delivers ultrasound energy to further smooth and tighten your new body contour. A probe is placed externally on the skin to heat the underlying tissue and to help smooth out the results.
