What Liposuction Techniques are used at Imagos Institute of Plastic Surgery?

While there are many types of liposuction out there (tumescent liposuction, lipo 360, etc.), Dr. Perez-Gurri and Dr. Garcia use power-assisted liposuction and VASERlipo®. Power-assisted liposuction uses tiny, rapid vibrations to break up stubborn fat deposits, which results in increased safety, better results, and a shorter recovery than traditional liposuction. VASERlipo® uses ultrasound technology to separate the fat prior to suctioning and assist with the contracture of the overlying skin to produce a firmer result. Dr. Garcia has recently published a textbook on VASERlipo and is considered and international expert on the technique.

Power-Assisted Liposuction:

  • Targets excess fat with great precision.
  • Offers a shorter recovery time and a shorter procedure.
  • Using vibration to break fat into smaller pieces which is then suctioned out by a canula.

VASERLipo®:

  • Uses ultrasound technology to separate the fat resulting in less trauma during liposuction
  • Only targets fat cells, leaving nearby healthy tissues unharmed.
  • Contracts the overlying skin to produce a firmer result.

What are the Benefits of Liposuction?

Improved Body Contours

Genetics determine the shape of the body and the areas where most fat is carried. Liposuction can accentuate the body’s curves to provide an hourglass silhouette for women or a firmer, more masculine V-shape for men.

Increased Muscle Tone

Regular exercise is often insufficient to reveal muscle tone through the skin. Liposuction removes the stubborn layers of fat and sculpts the area to reveal toned muscle more readily.

A Safe, Customized Procedure

All the fat-reduction techniques used at Imagos Institute of Plastic Surgery are considered safe and are performed using only FDA approved devices. Less swelling and bruising are associated with VASERLipo®, which uses ultrasound technology to separate the fat gently. We completely customize cosmetic procedures depending on your desires for recovery time and amount of fat reduction.

Natural-Looking Results

The liposuction techniques used allow for increased precision during the sculpting process. Dr. Perez-Gurri and Dr. Garcia’s experience with the liposuction procedure has made them experts at maintaining symmetry and smooth contours for the most natural-looking results even in the smallest areas.

What Can I Expect with Liposuction Recovery?

Patients typically plan to take up to one week off from work to recover from liposuction. A compression garment should be worn in the weeks following surgery as the body conforms to its new contours. Most of the swelling will subside entirely after two months, and the results will be noticeable. Most patients are cleared for regular exercise after four to six weeks.

Why Should I Choose Imagos Plastic Surgery for Liposuction?

At Imagos Plastic Surgery, patients will receive the highest quality of service, a tailored surgical plan, and personal care by highly skilled medical professionals. We prioritize:

  • Communication — This is a crucial element of the surgeon-patient relationship. We strive to establish open communication with each and every patient before, on, and after your surgery date.
  • Honesty — We strive for honesty during every step of the process. We value your health, safety, and well-being above all and will only recommend procedures that we feel would be beneficial to you. 
  • Empathy — We realize how courageous a patient must be to reach the decision to undergo elective aesthetic surgery. We will do everything we can to educate you, make you feel heard, and let you have a say in every step of the process.
  • Time — While many clinics will have you only meet with a patient coordinator in rushed appointments, at Imagos, you will meet directly with your surgeon for your consultation and follow-up appointments after surgery.
