What is Liposuction or Suction Assisted Lipectomy?
Liposuction or Suction Assisted Lipectomy is a type of plastic surgery that
removes fatty tissue.
Liposuction is one of the most common types of plastic surgery
performed by Dr. Felice. Dr. Felice utilizes the technique of tumescent liposuction
for safe and consistently good results. Liposuction is best performed for the individual that seeks improvement in the
contour of a specific body area. It should never be considered as a means of
weight loss. Ideally, the individual should be within 20% of ideal body weight
for the best results. A compression garment must be worn for 3 weeks post operatively.
It generally will take 3 months to see the majority of the improvement due to
fluid absorption, tissue contouring and skin tightening.
