Liposuction in La Jolla

We all experience life differently, including how our bodies store fat. Factors including genetics, the birth of a baby or extreme weight loss can impact the appearance of the body. You may eat right, exercise daily and live a healthy lifestyle, but stubborn pockets of excess fat accumulating on your body just won’t go away. This is where Dr. Sadrian's liposuction in La Jolla comes in.

Before and After

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a surgical body contouring procedure used to minimize accumulations of unwanted fat. It targets fatty deposits that typically do not respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction can safely give you a slimmer, more youthful and contoured body appearance.

How Much Fat Can Be Removed?

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but works best if you are close to an ideal body weight. The amount of fat that can be removed varies patient to patient. Liposuction produces the best results for those who have retained a good level of skin elasticity, so the skin will mold itself to your slimmer body contour.

Who Is A Good Candidate For Liposuction?

The procedure does not remove cellulite, dimples, or stretch marks. The goal is aesthetic — for those who wish to enhance the contour of their body. Dr. Sadrian offers other surgical and non-surgical treatments for a more comprehensive treatment to resolve these conditions. You are a good candidate for liposuction if you are someone that is relatively healthy but have lingering pockets of fat that bother you and make you feel less attractive.

It is essential to talk with your doctor about liposuction, but a good candidate:

Has localized areas of unwanted fat
Is at or close to their ideal weight
Has areas of fat deposits that are not in line with the rest of their body
Enjoys good skin elasticity
Is a non-smoker

How Does Lyposuction Work?

At Sadrian Plastic Surgery, we have multiple devices and techniques for performing liposuction.

Generally, liposuction involves inserting a thin hollow metal instrument called a cannula through small incisions in the area to be treated to break up and extract excess fat. A suction system extracts the excess fat from the targeted zone. Liposuction is for a larger body area may be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia along with intravenous sedation for patient comfort, but you can return home after treatment. The length of time you will need to spend in at our clinic will depend on the number of areas being treated, but you can usually expect two to four hours.

The recovery process may take several weeks depending on your specific procedure. Strenuous exercise is restricted during your recovery period, but it is important to engage in mild exercise such as a gentle walk to aid in circulation.
