Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that extracts fat cells from targeted areas of the body – including thighs, waist, buttocks, upper arms, neck and more – to help you achieve a sleek, toned appearance. While diet and exercise are important aspects of any healthy lifestyle, there are certain areas of the body that simply do not respond as well as hoped. Fortunately, for men and women seeking additional help sculpting the thighs, midsection or buttocks, liposuction can prove to be a solution that is safe, effective and able to provide impressive results in a short period of time.Dr. Preminger performs several liposuction techniques in her Manhattan surgical suite, including BodyTite, Vaser, Smartlipo and power-assisted lipo, helping patients rid themselves of stubborn body fat.

Preparing for liposuction
Dr. Preminger will take your complete medical history and rule out potentially dangerous conditions such as high blood pressure, pulmonary problems, diabetes, a suppressed immune system or coronary artery disease. Any sensitivity to anesthesia will also be addressed, to ensure that you are able to safely undergo the procedure.
Recovery
In the majority of cases, liposuction patients are able to return home the very same day of their procedure. Your bandages will likely stay in place for approximately two weeks, and it will also be necessary to wear your compression garments for several weeks in order to keep swelling and bleeding under control. Otherwise, the healing process should be extremely straightforward.
You may experience bruising and some mild discomfort for several days following your procedure, but this can be easily managed with over-the-counter or prescribed pain medication. Within just a few weeks, you will begin to see the impressive results of your liposuction procedure.

Long-lasting results
Though liposuction is permanent, the positive results still require maintenance. A healthy diet and exercise regimen is essential to keep your desired appearance and to maintain an appropriate weight.
Liposuction is a proven technique for getting rid of stubborn fat deposits that have not been reduced by traditional methods and which have prevented you from achieving the figure you desire.
Buttock lifts and tummy tucks can be done alongside liposuction to achieve truly transformational outcomes. It is also possible to take advantage of fat deposits extracted through liposuction by using them in a process referred to as autologous fat transfer. This method injects your own fat into other areas of the body marked by unsightly wrinkles and fine lines, imparting a fresh, youthful look.
