Are you struggling with stubborn fat pockets that just won’t budge, despite your best efforts with diet and exercise? Liposuction combined with Renuvion Skin Tightening might be the solution you’ve been looking for. At Dr. Andrews Plastic Surgery in Coralville, Iowa, we offer state-of-the-art body contouring procedures to help you achieve the sculpted physique you desire.
What is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a popular cosmetic surgery procedure that removes stubborn fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It’s an effective way to sculpt and reshape your figure, targeting areas such as the abdomen, hips, arms, neck, inner thighs, and outer thighs. These are common areas where excess fat develops. Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure, so patients will not have to worry about significant scarring.
The Bi-Sculpt Advantage
At Dr. Andrews Plastic Surgery, we use an advanced technique called Bi-Sculpt liposuction. This cutting-edge approach offers several benefits over traditional liposuction:
- More precise fat removal
- Smoother, more natural-looking results
- Faster recovery time
- Less bruising and swelling
Renuvion Skin Tightening: The Perfect Complement to Liposuction
To enhance the results of liposuction, we offer Renuvion skin tightening. This innovative technology uses a combination of radiofrequency energy and helium plasma to tighten and firm the skin from beneath its surface. This powerful combination stimulates collagen production in the treated area to turn back the clock on aging and improve mild to moderate skin laxity (loose skin). A Renuvion procedure can be performed with liposuction surgery, providing immediate skin contraction and continued improvement over time. Renuvion can be used on many areas of the face and body, allowing us to build a personalized treatment plan that addresses all your needs and aesthetic goals.
Benefits of Renuvion include:
- Minimally invasive procedure
- Immediate and long-lasting results
- Reduced skin laxity
- Improved skin texture and tone
Is Liposuction with Renuvion Right for You?
Ideal candidates for these procedures are individuals who:
- Are at or near their ideal body weight
- Have good skin elasticity
- Have stubborn body fat that don’t respond to diet and exercise
- Are in good overall health and committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle
- Have realistic expectations about the procedure’s outcomes
Patients with significant amounts of sagging skin may benefit from liposuction combined with other body sculpting surgeries to effectively remove the excess tissue.
The Procedure
During your Bi-Sculpt liposuction procedure, Dr. Andrews will use a power-assisted device to break up and remove unwanted fat cells. If you’re also receiving Renuvion treatment, it will be performed through the same small incisions used for liposuction. The procedure is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation, depending on the extent of the treatment area.
Recovery and Results
After the Bi-Sculpt procedure, patients should expect mild to moderate swelling and bruising for one to two weeks. A compression garment should be worn during this time to minimize swelling and aid in proper healing. You’ll see initial results almost immediately, with final results becoming apparent after a few months as swelling subsides. The fat cells removed during liposuction are gone for good, and the skin-tightening effects of Renuvion will continue to improve over time. Patients can enjoy a more contoured appearance for many years if they maintain a healthy diet and avoid excess sun exposure.
