Liposuction FAQ: 3 Things to Know

Let’s do a brief liposuction FAQ.

When it comes to liposuction surgery, there are at least three things you should know.

• Liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure. For individuals who want to lose a significant amount of weight, a bariatric procedure is what they need. Liposuction surgery is only intended for improving the body’s contours and overall appearance. Candidates should already be at or near their target weight for the best liposuction results.
• Liposuction does not eliminate sagging skin. However, a tummy tuck addresses and corrects issues of excess and sagging skin. In many cases, such as a mommy makeover, both procedures are done together to remove excess fat and sagging skin.
• Liposuction scars are usually well hidden. Typically, incisions are just a few millimeters long and leave behind minor scaring that will fade over time. Dr. Jazayeri always strives to place these incisions strategically so that if they do leave a visible mark, they are as inconspicuous as possible. Generally speaking, most of these marks are no larger than the size of a freckle or fine line.
