Liposuction has been growing in popularity because the procedure is extremely effective and safe. If you have been struggling with stubborn fat deposits that simply will not budge regardless of changes to your diet or exercise program, liposuction may be right for you.
How is Liposuction Performed?
Liposuction is a fairly simple and straightforward procedure. Dr. Yousefi starts by applying a numbing agent to your skin to allow for making several small incisions in unobtrusive locations. He then inserts a tube into these incisions to break up fat deposits using a saline-based solution. Dr. Yousefi then removes the fat by using the tube to suction it out safely.
On What Areas of the Body Can Liposuction Be Used?
Liposuction assists in the removal of stubborn fat deposits from almost any part of the body, including:
- Abdomen
- Breasts
- Buttocks
- Arms
What Can I Expect After Liposuction in Rockville?
Liposuction can be performed in under two hours depending on the area and the amount of fat to be eliminated. Patients may resume light activities the next day. Patients normally are able to resume their jobs in two or three days, as long as it does not involve vigorous physical activity.
Dr. Yousefi’s patients who do experience any discomfort report it is like the feeling of sore muscles following prolonged exercise. Although the discomfort is minor, medication will still be available for the first day or two.
