Liposuction Explained

There are many reasons why you should invest in liposuction. Perhaps you are working to tone your figure after pregnancy, or maybe you recently lost a significant amount of weight, and your body does not look exactly as you envisioned. Even if you are eating right and exercising faithfully, an area of your body may refuse to respond to your efforts.

If you live in Austin or the surrounding area and are considering liposuction, our plastic surgeons consider you a good candidate if you are a non-smoker and in good health. You should also be within a reasonable weight range, have healthy, elastic skin, and have realistic expectations about the procedure. Your plastic surgeon will use liposuction as a sculpting tool to resolve minor lumps and bumps but not to remove large amounts of fat.

Initial Consultation for Liposuction

If you decide to meet with one of our experienced plastic surgeons for Austin liposuction, you may have many questions. Our surgeons want you to feel completely comfortable during your consultation to ask questions about the results you can expect, any risks associated with liposuction, and what the recovery process looks like afterward.

If you decide to proceed with the procedure, our staff wants you to feel prepared and comfortable with the process from beginning to end. We will guide you through preparing for your treatment and what to expect from liposuction. We will also ensure you know what to expect after completing your procedure and monitor your recovery.

Recovery

Depending on your type of employment, you should be able to return to work a few days after your procedure, but it may take a few weeks to resume all your activities, such as exercise and strenuous tasks. You might experience bruising, swelling, and pain in the treated area for a few weeks after the procedure. You might also need to wear compression garments to reduce swelling during recovery.

Once you fully heal, your newly sculpted appearance is long-lasting. Your surgeon recommends you follow a healthy, balanced diet and move regularly to maintain weight.
