What Is Liposuction?
Even though you try to lose weight, you probably still have stubborn pockets of fat that keep you from being completely confident in yourself. Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa is proud to offer the latest treatments to safely remove fat from certain body parts. Surgical liposuction is a body contouring treatment that reduces fat in various body areas, such as the abdomen and neck, to produce a slimmer appearance. This treatment at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa can be combined to treat multiple body parts. During your initial visit, we will assess problematic areas so you can reach your personal goals. We will strive to help you feel and look your best.
How Is Liposuction Performed?
Surgical liposuction is performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. A tiny incision is made through the skin to insert a cannula. The cannula is a tube that makes it easier to work loose the fatty tissue being suctioned out. The small incisions will be sealed once the desired amount of fatty tissue has been eliminated. Depending on the number of areas being treated, your procedure could take several hours. In the dedicated area for recovery, we will assist you with managing any discomfort and look after your treated areas until you are discharged.
What Should I Expect after Liposuction?
You may need to recover at home from liposuction for 1 – 3 weeks, depending on the extent of the procedure and the treatment area. Bruising and swelling are normal for the first one to two weeks, and sutures are usually removed 7 – 10 days after surgery. The key to recovery is giving your body time to rest and heal. When you're ready to return to work, it's important to ease back into your routine and avoid overexertion. Our team recommends short walks and light exercises, as approved during follow-up care, to help rebuild your strength. While some improvements may be visible after six weeks, it typically takes 6 – 10 months to see your final body contour and shape.

Is Liposuction Right for Me?
Liposuction is a good treatment for individuals who are at an ideal weight but have pesky areas of fat that are difficult to rid of with even the most healthy lifestyle. Those interested in liposuction should have healthy skin because liposuction is not a treatment for stretched-out skin. It's also important to know that liposuction is not a solution for weight loss. Females undergoing liposuction should have no plans to become pregnant again as this may compromise the results. At the time of your consultation for surgery, Dr. Sandhu will discuss realistic expectations.
Liposuction FAQ
How much does liposuction cost?
The liposuction will vary based on the technique being used and the amount of areas being addressed. During your consultation, Dr. Sandhu will develop your unique treatment plan based on your needs and goals. He will also take into consideration your budget. When your plan is ready, estimated costs will be discussed. To help make your cosmetic surgery easy to afford, Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa accepts many payment methods, and we can help you find low-interest medical financing.
Will I have scars?
Since a facelift is an invasive surgery, incisions must be made and stitched. This will leave scars, but Dr. Sandhu does his best to reduce their appearance. This includes making small incisions in less visible areas or the natural folds of your body. After your surgery, Dr. Sandhu or a member of his team will go over how to care for your incisions so they heal properly and eventually fade.
Will my results last?
Before liposuction, it is important to be prepared to maintain your results. While liposuction reduces the number of fat cells in your body, you can still lose and gain weight. Dr. Sandhu recommends that you be at or near a healthy weight before liposuction. Afterward, staying within 5 – 10 pounds of your post-surgical weight is best. Pregnancy after liposuction will also impact your results.
Look Fit and Toned
Fat removal with liposuction at Sandhu Dermatology & Med Spa offers patients the opportunity to have annoying fat diminished almost immediately. Without liposuction, achieving the slimming outcomes you want can be frustrating. We can recommend various alternatives for liposuction treatment based on your individual concerns. We invite you to contact our West Palmdale, Ridgecrest, or Tehachapi, CA practice to set up your private consultation to get started.
