Liposuction continues to be one of the most popular and effective cosmetic procedures worldwide. Dr. Ron Levine, a highly regarded plastic surgeon based in Forest Hill, North York, Toronto, offers state-of-the-art liposuction techniques for those seeking a more sculpted, toned body. Liposuction removes stubborn fat deposits and enhances body contours, providing patients with the refined, balanced figures they desire.
Where can I sculpt with liposuction?
Commonly treated areas include the abdomen, flanks (love handles), thighs, arms, back, hips, and even under the chin. Liposuction can deliver impressive, long-lasting results if you’re looking to enhance your midsection, slim down your thighs, or refine your jawline.
What does liposuction involve?
The procedure involves making small, discreet incisions through which a thin, hollow cannula is inserted. These incisions are only 1-1.5 cm long. Dr. Levine carefully loosens and removes unwanted fat cells with a controlled, gentle motion, ensuring precision and evenness for smooth, natural-looking contours. Liposuction can be performed under local or general anesthesia depending on the amount of fat being removed and the area being treated.
Will Liposuction help me lose weight?
Liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure but rather a method of body contouring. Ideal candidates are at or near their target weight but have specific areas of fat that have proven difficult to eliminate through lifestyle changes alone. Dr. Levine’s approach to liposuction is highly individualized, ensuring that each patient’s unique body type and aesthetic goals are considered.
One of liposuction’s most significant benefits is the permanence of the results. Once fat cells are removed, they do not grow back. Maintaining a stable weight and healthy lifestyle will help ensure that your results remain long-lasting and satisfying.
Recovery after liposuction
Recovery from liposuction generally involves some swelling, bruising, and mild discomfort, which gradually improves over the weeks following the procedure. Dr. Levine recommends wearing compression garments to help minimize swelling, promote proper healing, and support the newly contoured areas. Most patients can resume their normal activities within a few days, although strenuous exercise should be avoided for at least two to four weeks to ensure optimal healing.
