Liposuction Memphis

While it is normal to experience some bruising, swelling, and discomfort after the procedure, the recovery is far less difficult than traditional liposuction. When planning your procedure, we advise setting aside a week for recovery, making sure to limit any vigorous physical activity for about one month to six weeks while your body heals.

For a sculpted, defined body, high definition liposuction creates extraordinary results. Ready to find out more? Speak with us about what you hope to achieve. You can expect the highest level of personal care and professionalism in performing liposuction Memphis has to offer.

High Definition Liposuction - How it Works.

The procedure involves the use of a saline solution that numbs the treatment zone and shrinks the blood vessels in the area to minimize the risk of bleeding or bruising. Once the saline is injected into the treatment area, the fatty deposits can be more easily broken with the unique ultrasound technology, produced by a small vibrating probe.

This state-of-the-art liposuction technique offers the powerful advantage of leaving nearby tissue unharmed. After the fat is loosened, it is gently extracted by a specialized extraction tool that is much less likely to cause any damage to the surrounding tissue. Many patients want to achieve a "chiseled" look, and this procedure can sculpt and define with precision fat extraction around various muscle groups.

This latest-generation liposuction system precisely removes areas of unwanted fat. The use of ultrasound makes it possible to "chisel" body shape to reveal muscle groups, including:

  • Six pack definition

  • Defined pectorals

  • Defined lats

  • Defined obliques

  • Reveal and sculpt other muscle groups

High Definition Liposuction

High Definition Liposuction is a state-of-the-art liposuction technique to sculpt and define the body. The procedure is performed with a specialized suction cannula (a small, hollow needle) that rapidly vibrates, gently releasing fat cells which are then extracted with an advanced suction vacuum.

This cutting-edge liposuction system has significant advantages for the patient. It requires far less time than traditional liposuction, is a much gentler fat removal and sculpting system, requires less force, and offers an exceptionally high level of precision.

About Traditional Liposuction

Liposuction is an appropriate treatment for patients who are generally fit and at a healthy weight, or close to it, but are tired of living with stubborn fatty deposits in harder-to-access areas of the body.

Traditional liposuction requires general anesthetic, larger incisions, and does not tighten skin, and often leaves sagging areas of skin after the fat has been extracted. Ridges or ripples may be left beneath the skin, as this process is not a precision fat removal technique. While traditional liposuction can extract larger quantities of fat, it can require weeks of downtime and recovery, significant bruising, and requires wearing a compression garment for many weeks following the procedure.
