How is liposuction body sculpting performed?

Dr. Diwan utilizes the highly successful tumescent technique for liposuction. This technique improves the shape of the body by removing stubborn fat in areas such as a double chin, the stomach, hips, buttocks, thighs, and the knees. This tumescent liposuction procedure allows for the safe and painless removal of fat in the office with local anesthesia. A medication can be given to lessen anxiety and help you relax, if needed.

A local anesthetic is used to numb the fat for removal  through suction. The tumescent method lessens bleeding, bruising, and post-operative discomfort and speeds recovery. This simple and safe procedure is highly effective and remains unsurpassed by newer versions of liposuction such as SmartLipo.

Tumescent liposuction recovery time

Tumescent liposuction allows for a quicker recovery period than other forms of liposuction and cosmetic fat reduction. Most patients have minimal bruising.  Swelling of the treated area is normal and will gradually fade over a few weeks. Depending on your job, you should be able to return to work 3 days later. Physical activity must be minimized for a week and gradually increased over six weeks.
