You eat well and exercise regularly to contribute to your overall wellness, but those habits don’t always translate into an ideal silhouette.
Areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and under the chin can be resistant to even the most dedicated fitness routine. Have you reached your goal weight, but you’re still struggling with unwanted fat? Awake laser-assisted liposuction at Lansdowne Aesthetic Center may be your solution.
Unlike traditional liposuction, awake laser-assisted liposuction is performed using local anesthesia, so you remain comfortable and awake throughout the procedure. A specialized laser gently liquefies fat cells before they’re removed, making fat extraction more precise while also stimulating collagen production to encourage skin tightening.
One of the biggest advantages of this procedure is that you don't have to endure general anesthesia. It’s convenient to remain awake while enjoying a quicker recovery and less downtime than traditional techniques.
Additional benefits include:
Many patients also enjoy a faster return to daily activities as compared to traditional liposuction.
Awake laser-assisted liposuction helps contour your body, but it isn’t for weight loss. If you’re close to your ideal weight but want to refine areas that haven't responded to diet and exercise, the procedure might be right for you.
We routinely treat areas like the abdomen, waist, hips, thighs, upper arms, back, neck, and under the chin.
During your consultation, our surgeon evaluates your goals, discusses your medical history, and determines whether this procedure is the best option to achieve your desired results.
Many patients choose awake laser-assisted liposuction because it offers a more manageable recovery compared to more invasive surgical procedures. Although recovery varies from person to person, you can expect some swelling, bruising, and tenderness that gradually improves over time.
Following our office’s postoperative instructions, including wearing compression garments if recommended and allowing your body time to heal, can help support the best results.
Awake laser-assisted liposuction offers an effective way to target stubborn fat while creating smoother, more defined contours with less downtime than many patients expect. It enhances your natural physique rather than creating an entirely new you.
