Liposuction

Hailey, Brody, Casey & Wray, M.D., P.C.




Liposuction is a body contouring technique pioneered by dermatologic surgeons.  Liposuction is a means of reducing localized fat deposits that are difficult or impossible to remove with diet or exercise.  Also known as tumescent liposuction, the procedure is not a technique for treating obesity.  During the procedure, a solution is injected under the skin into the fatty tissue. The fatty tissue is then removed.  Afterward, the skin is taped or a girdle is worn for support.  Patients usually return to work after 2 to 7 days.  Ultrasound and massage may be necessary for several months.  Sedation is not necessary for the procedure.

Using Liposuction, our Atlanta dermatologic surgeons can remove larger volumes of accumulated fat from areas such as hips, buttocks, neck, knees, “love handles,” or abdomen to improve one's body contouring when dieting is ineffective.  Liposuction can be performed in our Atlanta office as an outpatient procedure with local anesthesia. Advantages of the tumescent liposuction procedure include no blood loss, exceptional safety, rare complications, and return to work within 48 hours.

Liposuction can be used in conjunction with Fat Transfer.
