You’ve been eating well and exercising but still have persistent fat deposits that won’t go away; it might be time to consider liposuction for smoother, more sculpted body contours. At Oakville Plastic Surgery & Medspa, Dr. Nancy de Kleer uses advanced techniques to deliver natural-looking results tailored to your unique anatomy and aesthetic goals.
What Is Liposuction?
Liposuction offers precision body sculpting; this body contouring procedure removes localized pockets of stubborn fat through small, discreet incisions. A thin tube called a cannula is skillfully inserted in the targeted area to precisely extract fat cells, allowing Dr. de Kleer to sculpt your silhouette with accuracy, removing fat from areas of concern. Once those fat cells are gone, they’re gone for good. Unlike non-surgical fat reduction methods that shrink fat cells, liposuction permanently removes them from treated areas.
Is liposuction a weight loss surgery?
Liposuction is not a weight loss surgery; it’s a body contouring surgery and won’t help you lose weight. The best candidates for liposuction are people living a healthy lifestyle and looking to address areas of stubborn excess fat. Innovative surgery procedures allow Dr. de Kleer to strategically sculpt your areas of concern for a smoother, tighter appearance. With a healthy diet and lifestyle, your refined contours can be long-lasting.
The true benefits of contouring with liposuction
- Precise removal of fat in targeted areas: A surgical plan for liposuction is carefully drawn, outlining the areas to be treated. Dr. de Kleer then reduces the unwanted fat bulge with careful liposuction allowing for detailed body sculpting that enhances your natural proportions.
- Immediate, pronounced results: While final contours develop over several months, the fat reduction is immediate and more dramatic than non-surgical alternatives.
- Permanent removal of fat cells: Because the fat cells are physically removed from the body, the results are more resistant to future weight fluctuations. Remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain and depending on your lifestyle; your weight may fluctuate, but the overall improvement in contour is maintained.
- Versatile treatment options: Multiple areas can be addressed in a single liposuction session. We specialize in building custom treatment plans, and can also recommend combination surgeries such as a tummy tuck or body lift for comprehensive body transformation. We may also recommend non-invasive skin tightening or contouring in addition to surgical techniques to optimize or maintain your results.
Where on the body can liposuction be done?
Liposuction works on areas that have enough subcutaneous fat for liposuction to be effective. It’s a highly versatile and can effectively address stubborn fat in numerous body areas:
- Abdomen: Define and flatten
- Flanks (love handles): Waistline smoothing
- Hips and thighs: Balanced contouring
- Arms: Reduce upper arm fullness
- Back: Reduce bra bulge and back rolls
- Chin and neck: Define the jawline and reduce a double chin
- Knees: Slim and contour the lower leg
- Male chest: Reduce unwanted fat on the male chest
- Female breast: reduce the breast with minimal scars
Liposuction may not be right for body areas with skin laxity or cellulite or areas requiring overall weight loss.
Can I afford liposuction?
Liposuction is more accessible than you may know. If you’re looking for a lasting change but not sure you’re financially ready to commit to surgery, we offer flexible financing options for patients to help break up payments and open the door to life-changing procedures.
