At Gilson Plastic Surgery in Portland, Oregon, we understand the importance of providing our patients with not just exceptional surgical results, but also with comprehensive information to make informed decisions about their health and appearance. I am Dr. Aaron Gilson, a plastic and reconstructive surgeon with a focus on aesthetic surgery, and I'm here to guide you through what you need to know about liposuction.
Understanding Liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure designed to remove excess fat from specific areas of the body. This technique is particularly effective for those who have areas of fat that do not respond to diet and exercise. It's important to note that liposuction is not a weight-loss solution but rather a contouring procedure ideal for individuals who are close to their ideal body weight.
The Liposuction Procedure
At Gilson Plastic Surgery, we perform liposuction using the latest techniques that prioritize safety, comfort, and effective results. The procedure typically involves the use of a thin tube, called a cannula, which is inserted through small incisions. Through this cannula, excess fat is suctioned out, sculpting the body into a more aesthetically pleasing shape.
Tailored Approach
Every patient is unique, and so are their aesthetic goals. My approach is to individualize each treatment plan. During consultations, I take the time to understand your specific concerns and aesthetic objectives. This personalized approach ensures that the results align closely with your expectations, harmonizing with your natural body contours.
Recovery and Results
Recovery from liposuction varies depending on the extent of the procedure and the individual's healing process. Most patients can expect some swelling and bruising, which diminishes over time. I provide detailed post-operative care instructions and am always available to address any concerns during the recovery phase.
The results of liposuction can be long-lasting, especially when coupled with a healthy lifestyle. It's important to maintain a stable weight to preserve the contouring effects of the procedure.
