Liposuction – Miami, FL
Surgical Procedure
Liposuction Surgery
Liposuction has been a long-standing way to control the shape of your body and stubborn areas of fat. However, you can’t control where your body puts fat. That is determined by evolution and genetics. Losing weight can help you slim down, but stubborn belly fat and weight around your midsection tend to linger because that’s where your body keeps emergency stores.
Miami liposuction can help you take full control of where your body stores fat beyond the scope of diet and exercise. Lipo 360 makes it possible to target your entire midsection, all the way around, in a single treatment. Thanks to 360 degrees of fat removal, you’ll have a slimmer profile than you ever thought was possible.
If you would like to know more about Miami Lipo 360 or are ready to schedule a consultation, then contact Prestige Plastic Surgery today. You’ll be able to meet with one of our board-certified cosmetic surgeons to discuss what a liposuction 360 procedure can do for you.
The Cost of Liposuction in Miami
Liposuction is often more affordable than you might think. Miami liposuction typically costs between $2,000 and $10,000 depending on your individual needs. The cost, of course, scale with combination procedures such as a tummy tuck or fat transfer procedure. Your individual price will be determined by your chosen surgical details and any specific medical needs.
Consult with your cosmetic surgery clinic to explore pricing options based on your needs and desired surgical experience.
How Does Lipo 360 Work?
Thanks to the cutting-edge technology that is used in each Miami Liposuction 360, surgeons are able to accentuate the patient’s natural curves. This results in outcomes that look completely natural but are dramatically different from the patient’s pre-operative profile.
Patients in Miami have their choice between general anesthesia and IV sedation. Your surgeon will talk with you about your preference in advance of the surgery to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure. After the patient is sedated, it is time for the surgeon to make the appropriate incisions. These incisions typically are quite small, which helps to minimize scarring.
Next, excess fat is removed from all around the midsection using a tool known as a cannula. This is a narrow suctioning tube that gently removes excess fat deposits.
Some patients also may be good candidates for laser-assisted liposuction. Your surgeon will discuss this option with you during your consultation. A laser may be used during a Miami Lipo 360 procedure to tight skin and melt excess fat.
Lipo vs. Lipo 360: What’s the Difference?
Most people are at least somewhat familiar with liposuction, a cosmetic surgery procedure in which excess fat is removed from a trouble spot on the body, like the abdomen. However, fewer people have heard about the newest innovation in fat removal: Lipo 360!
Traditional liposuction generally focused on one problem area such as the waist, thighs or arms. This surgery was able to produce some pretty spectacular results, but most people tend to carry extra fat in more than just one area.
For example, someone who holds their excess weight around the waist area may be most concerned about the shape of their abdomen, but they also may have noticed that they have love handles as well.
The Advantage of Lipo 360
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could take care of the excess fat on your waist from all angles in a single procedure? Now you can, thanks to a Miami Liposuction 360 procedure.
Think of Miami Lipo 360 as being like an all-inclusive package deal. With one surgery, you can completely reshape and sculpt your midsection, including both the lower and upper abdominals as well as the lower back, mid-back and both flanks.
What Areas Can Lipo 360 Target?
- Abdomen
- Flanks
- Back
- Hips
Lipo 360 in Miami targets your abdomen, flanks, back, and hips simultaneously. Weight tends to be distributed, and a circumferential approach is the best way to achieve a realistic body shape and prevent transference by addressing your entire midsection all at once.
Lipo 360 offers an improvement on traditional one-area liposuction with an understanding that midsection weight is all part of the same system. This area includes your stomach (abdomen), love handles (flanks), back fat, and hips so that your entire midsection reduces in size and fat retention in an even and attractive way.
Who’s a Good Candidate for Lipo 360?
Most people will find that they are excellent candidates for this revolutionary procedure. In general, Miami patients who are in good overall health and who are non-smokers make the best candidates. It also makes sense if the patient is at or close to their ideal body weight. This is because liposuction is not precisely a weight-loss procedure, but rather is designed to only remove subcutaneous fat. To learn exactly how much weight you might lose from liposuction, consult with an experienced plastic surgeon in Miami.
Accordingly, as long as you meet these criteria and have excess fat around your waist, abdomen and back, you are probably an excellent candidate for Miami Liposuction 360.
If you also are bothered by weak abdominal muscles, loose skin or intra-abdominal fat, you may want to consider a tummy tuck instead of or in addition to a lipo 360 procedure. Ask your surgeon to learn more about the pros and cons of going with a tummy tuck vs liposuction.
Expected Results of Lipo 360
Lipo 360 provides an overall slimmer profile, removing excess fat from your entire midsection including stubborn belly fat, love handles back, and hips. The 360 approach ensures that your body looks and feels naturally thinner while accentuating your natural shape.
The Lipo 360 procedure in Miami is more intensive than a single-area lipo treatment, so you can choose your desired and recommended level of anesthesia and may have a longer recovery time. However, the comprehensive approach also prevents fat transference so your body will maintain your ideal contours.
While liposuction is not a weight loss method, it pairs perfectly with personal weight loss to help you achieve your desired shape and overcome stubborn fat so you can slim to a satisfying shape that shows off your body’s best assets.
Is Lipo 360 Permanent?
When people come in to Prestige Plastic Surgery for a Miami Liposuction 360 consultation, they almost always ask whether or not liposuction is permanent.
We can confidently report that liposuction is permanent. That’s because by the age of 13, most people have already developed their unique number of fat cells. Typically, these fat cells are not able to regenerate. This means that once fat cells are removed, they do not grow back.
Nonetheless, the remaining fat cells still have the ability to store fat. If you routinely eat a high-fat, high-calorie diet and forget to exercise, your fat cells can store more fat and grow larger. Over time, this can cause you to lose the benefit of your Miami Lipo 360 surgery.
That’s why our surgeons always recommend that patients follow a sensible, nutrient-dense diet and continue to exercise after having any cosmetic procedure performed.
Post-Op With Liposuction
Downtime after undergoing this procedure at our Miami practice tends to be fairly minimal. If you have opted for general anesthesia, please plan to be in our office for a few hours longer while the effects of the anesthesia wear off.
Most people are able to return to work in less than one week after the surgery. Pain and swelling are common after having such a procedure, and your doctor may prescribe medication to help manage these symptoms. Bruising also is common, but it typically subsides on its own after one to two weeks. Occasionally, swelling will last for weeks or even for a few months.
Miami patients are asked to wear a compression garment for approximately one month after the procedure. The compression garment minimizes swelling while maximizing results.
Within about two to four weeks, most patients are able to get back to exercising and other more strenuous activities.
Minimizing Recovery Time After Liposuction in Miami
There are several ways to minimize recovery time after a Miami liposuction treatment. Wearing abdominal compression garments, for example, can help you heal faster, protect your surgical areas while you heal, and promote your desired contouring. Compression garments reduce swelling while promoting good circulation. Your doctor may also provide additional tips and instructions, including pain medications.
Remember to slowly ease back into physical activity for minimal recovery time and take good care of yourself with light, healthy meals and plenty of hydration. Bone broth is a particularly good idea when accelerating your recovery after liposuction.
