HOW MUCH FAT CAN BE REMOVED FROM THE HIPS?

Hips is an area where I tend to be very aggressive and try and get out as much fat as I can. I find that this really proves the curvature of the body giving a really nice waistline. Also, by bringing the curvature on the hips, one enhances the convex curvature of the buttock giving a more Brazilian appearance to the body. Youthful shape comes from curvature rather than straight shadows.

HOW MUCH FAT WAS REMOVED FROM THIS LADY?

Approximately 2.5 liters of fat was removed from the hips.

HOW DID YOU GET THE SKIN TO CONTRACT SO WELL?

There are a number of techniques to enhance skin contraction. One is to remove as much fat as possible. This is called the superficial liposculpture method. The second is to treat the skin very close to the skin and use devices that enhance skin contraction. The tumescent liposuction method also enhances skin contraction together with the MicroAire device.

HOW IMPORTANT IS IT TO WEAR GARMENTS AFTER LIPOSCULPTURE IN THIS AREA?

Garments help the results by enhancing the skin contraction and allow all the canals that we produce with the liposculpture canula to close up.

WHAT DO THE X’S MEAN ON THE SKIN MARKING?

X’s mean that there is a large convex bulging of fat and this is where more fat is removed.

DOES THIS PATIENT NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT?

No, there is no necessity to lose weight but rather just keep their current health the same.

IS IT LIKELY THAT FAT WILL RECUR IN THIS AREA?

It is unlikely that it will recur in this region. Liposuction tends to be long lasting and probably more long term.

ARE THERE NON-SURGICAL WAYS TO REMOVE FAT?

Yes, we use the Cool Shape which is a variety of Cool Sculpt. We also have used ultrasound such as Ultra Shape in the past for non-surgical fat reduction. Unfortunately, these procedures do help fat but can never remove all the fat as seen in this case.
