About Liposuction
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, liposuction was the most sought-after cosmetic procedure from 2021-2022, and it remains one of the top five most frequently performed cosmetic surgical procedures. Liposuction can permanently remove unwanted fat deposits, and is performed using minimally invasive techniques that result in little to no visible scarring.
How Does Liposuction Work?
Liposuction is the permanent removal of fat cells from the body using specialized equipment. A long, slender, hollow tube called a cannula is inserted into a small incision near the treatment area. The cannula is attached to a suctioning device, and as the surgeon passes the cannula back and forth beneath the skin, they are able to suction away the unwanted fat and sculpt the patient’s desired results.
Liposuction, as we know it today, has come a long way from the procedure that was originally pioneered by French surgeons in the 1970s. Important developments in this surgery include the introduction of blunt cannulas, which allowed fat to be removed with less trauma to the surrounding tissues, and tumescent fluid. By infiltrating the treatment area with this specialized fluid before the procedure, less bleeding and fewer complications occur.

Recovery & Results
After undergoing liposuction, you can expect some swelling and bruising in the treated area. This is a normal part of the healing process and will gradually subside within a few weeks. Dr. Sofer will provide you with a special compression garment to wear for several weeks to help reduce swelling and promote proper healing. He may also prescribe pain medication to manage any discomfort during this time.
During your recovery period, it is important that you take it easy for a few days after the procedure, and avoid any strenuous activities for at least two weeks. Light walking is encouraged to help improve circulation and speed up the healing process. Dr. Sofer will schedule follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure that you are healing properly.
Once the swelling has subsided, you will begin to notice the full results of your liposuction procedure. You will enjoy a more sculpted and toned appearance in the treated area, with improved contours and definition. The results are long-lasting, as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle and diet. Dr. Sofer takes great care to ensure that any scarring is minimal and well-concealed.
