Liposuction - Northwest Indiana

One of the most popular cosmetic procedures in the country, liposuction may offer a toned, trim look to patients in Northwest Indiana. For men and women who struggle with stubborn fat on their abdomens, thighs, buttocks, neck or arms, liposuction is a great way to sculpt problem areas that are resistant to traditional diet and exercise.

For those seeking liposuction, Northwest Indiana plastic surgeon Dr. Ashpole offers state-of-the-art techniques, for optimal results with reduced pain, swelling and downtime. Through targeted sculpting, problem areas can be reduced for a smoother look.

Liposuction is typically performed under general anesthesia to ensure the comfort and safety of the patient. During liposuction, Northwest Indiana plastic surgeon Dr. Ashpole will make tiny incisions and gently guide a special tube called a cannula along the problem area to loosen and suction excess fat. Through careful, selected removal of fat he is able to sculpt the area into a more desirable shape. Though some results will be noticeable immediately after surgery, full results will gradually emerge as the swelling begins to subside. Full results are typically seen anywhere from 4-6 weeks after the procedure.

Liposuction should not be seen as a weight loss treatment, but as way to sculpt and contour specific problem areas of the body. The best candidates for the procedure are close to their ideal weight and have good skin elasticity. Liposuction can be performed alone or combined with other procedures, such as a tummy tuck, breast augmentation or thigh lift for a more complete rejuvenation.
