It is not a weight-loss surgery but rather a way to enhance your curves, reduce stubborn areas of fat, and boost your confidence. At Reddy Plastic Surgery, we prioritize your safety and satisfaction throughout your liposuction journey.

What are the Benefits and Expected Outcomes of Liposuction?

Choosing liposuction with Dr. Reddy offers numerous advantages:

  • Safe and permanent fat removal: Our techniques prioritize your safety while efficiently removing unwanted fat cells.
  • Enhanced body contour: Say goodbye to stubborn fat and hello to a more sculpted and proportionate figure.
  • Boosted self-esteem: Many patients experience a renewed sense of confidence in their appearance.
  • Quick recovery with minimal incisions: Most patients can resume their daily activities within a week.

Dr. Reddy will work closely with you to customize your liposuction plan, addressing your specific concerns and desired outcomes.

Recovery and Post-Surgery Expectations for Liposuction

For the first 24 hours after liposuction, you may leak pink fluid from the areas of liposuction. This is excess fluid, and it will stop leaking within 1 to 2 days.

It is normal to be swollen, tender, and bruised in the areas of liposuction. We recommend resting, light walking, and taking it easy. Pain medication is prescribed to ensure your comfort.

Most patients return to work within 5 days of surgery. As swelling subsides, final results are typically visible within a few months. Dr. Reddy will provide personalized post-operative care instructions and support you throughout your recovery.

How Do I Know if I am a Good Candidate for Liposuction?

Ideal candidates for liposuction:

  • Are close to their ideal weight: Liposuction is best for targeting specific areas of fat rather than overall weight loss. We recommend patients are within 10 to 15 pounds of their ideal weight at the time of surgery. 
  • Have good skin elasticity: This allows the skin to retract smoothly after fat removal. If skin in the areas of liposuction has significant stretch marks this may be a sign that this area has poor elasticity and may not contract well after liposuction. 
  • Maintain a healthy lifestyle: Regular exercise and a balanced diet will help maintain your results. To preserve your results, we recommend staying within 10 to 15 pounds of your pre-surgical weight.
  • Are non-smokers: Nicotine can hinder the healing process. All nicotine usage should be stopped at a minimum of 4 weeks before surgery. 

Dr. Reddy will thoroughly evaluate to determine if liposuction aligns with your aesthetic goals and overall well-being.
