Midland Liposuction has helped many men and women achieve their ideal body contour by eliminating stubborn pockets of fat that have been resistant their diet and exercise efforts. Ideal candidates for Liposuction are in good mental and physical health, have a strong immune system, firm skin with normal elasticity, not excessive cellulite, and have been unsuccessful at achieving their goals through diet and exercise. It is also important to have a realistic expectation for the procedure and potential results. One great way to get an idea of the kind of results possible through Liposuction is by looking at before and after photos of actual patients who’ve undergone Liposuction.

Liposuction is performed using a couple different techniques, for example in Tumescent Liposuction the Plastic Surgeon injects a saline-based liquid containing epinephrine to restrict the blood vessels and cut down on bleeding, as well as reduce pain from the tiny incisions. There is also Ultrasound Liposuction which uses the ultrasound frequency to turn the fat into liquid, making it easier to remove.

Many advances in liposuction have taken place over the years. One of these improvements is the creation of the tumescent liposuction technique, which we offer at our practice. This technique features the use of tumescent fluid in the target areas before any fat reduction is performed, which makes the procedure easier on both the patient and the cosmetic surgeon.

The fluid used in tumescent liposuction contains a painkiller called Lidocaine, along with saline and epinephrine, which acts to decrease the amount of bleeding during the procedure. The fat cells are firmer as a result of this fluid, making the suction process easier.
