Why Liposuction in Chicago Could Be for You

In 2010 alone, liposuction helped more than 200,000 people achieve their fat loss goals. It is safe, effective and popular. At aFresh® Med Spa & Plastic Surgery, we believe in helping everyone discover the best version of themselves possible, and we stand ready to provide our expert help. You could benefit from liposuction in Chicago, especially if you live a healthy lifestyle and still struggle with stubborn pockets of fat.

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction in Chicago is a safe cosmetic procedure used to remove stubborn fat that has been resistant to diet and exercise. It is the fourth most popular cosmetic procedure and is effective for fat removal in areas such as the hips, abdomen, inner and outer thighs, buttocks, lower and upper back, upper arms and face. It is commonly used in conjunction with other procedures, depending on the situation.

There are different types of lipo procedures, but all types involve the skillful removal of unwanted fat. SmartLipo, or laser-assisted liposuction, liquefies the fat with a burst of energy. Ultrasound-assisted liposuction ruptures the fat cells’ walls under your skin with sound wave energy to liquefy the fat. We also offer power-assisted and Water Lipo at our office. Of course, our team can advise you of which type of liposuction is best for you.

Is It Right for Me?

You may be a good candidate for liposuction in Chicago if you:

  • Are at or close to your goal weight
  • Do not consume nicotine
  • Are in good general health
  • Have firm, elastic skin

Liposuction is a fat removal procedure, not a procedure for weight loss. The results are designed to be permanent. However, your remaining fat cells will enlarge if you consume an excess of calories above maintenance regularly. Also, for optimal results, it is important to be at a stable, healthy weight before the procedure. During your initial consultation, one of our seasoned and compassionate professionals can consult with you on your medical history and other factors and determine if this is an ideal procedure for you.
