Liposuction

in Reno, Nevada

Sometimes called liposculpture, this procedure removes unwanted fat deposits in targeted areas to slim and reshape the area to your desired cosmetic outcome. More and more, men are turning to this procedure to slim and tone their physiques. Liposuction can be performed alone, but is commonly combined with other body contouring procedures like tummy tuck surgery, thigh lift, arm lift, or fat grafting.

What is Liposuction for Men?

View Patient Gallery

A new alternative to liposuction is the minimally invasive BodyTite procedure, which melts away body fat and provides skin tightening using high-tech radio-frequency lipolysis. Janiga MDs also offers  CoolSculpting Elite®, the world’s number one non-invasive fat reduction procedure, which contours your body through fat freezing without surgery.

Reasons for Male Liposuction

Liposuction and liposculpture are ideal for men looking to see more definition in their bodies. Stubborn fat deposits can cause many areas of the body to look less toned, and the contours are not as smooth. Excess fat can also cause skin irritation from chaffing, especially in areas like the thighs. Men commonly undergo liposuction on their flanks to slim their waistline. Other areas Dr. Janiga performs liposuction on are the stomach, thighs, hips, buttocks, double chin, back, and chest.

Before Your Liposuction Procedure

It is important to recognize that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure and is intended for localized areas of excess fat. Patients should be near their ideal weight and at a stable weight before their surgical procedure. Patients should also have minimal skin laxity so that the skin can snap back after fat removal, preventing the look of loose skin. Patients who simultaneously wish to treat excess skin and fat can benefit from treatments like BodyTite or combining liposuction with other non-surgical skin tightening procedures. How much fat can be safely removed will depend on the treatment area, skin quality, and other factors.

Dr. Janiga will explain the procedure in more detail and discuss the kind of results you can expect at an initial consultation. He will review the patient’s medical history to make sure there are no pre-existing conditions that could prevent them from receiving surgery. Each patient’s goals will be discussed thoroughly, and any questions will be answered to create a personalized treatment plan that patients can feel confident about.

Your Liposuction Procedure

 Men undergoing liposuction for small areas can have it done under local anesthesia in our Reno offices.  For larger areas, patients will likely have general anesthesia at JanigaMDs JCAHO accredited outpatient surgery center under general anesthesia.   First, tiny port sites will be made in the treatment area, and through that port site, a small cannula will be inserted with tumescent fluid to inject for blood vessel contraction and to assist in easier fat removal. After the tumescent cannula is removed, Dr. Janiga will insert the liposuction cannula through that same part site, and excess fatty tissue will be removed withsuction.  Dr. Janiga uses meticulous techniques to strategically remove the fat and enhance the natural contours of the body. The length of treatment varies depending on the size and number of body areas being treated, but most liposuction procedures take 1-2 hours.

 After Your Liposuction Procedure

After liposuction, patients should expect a few days of sorenessbefore returning to work, depending on their job. Prescription or over-the-counter pain medication and cold compresses can be used to reduce swelling and discomfort. A compression garment may also be provided and should be worn at all times, except when showering, during the first few weeks. More strenuous activities can usually be resumed after 2 weeks, depending on the amount of liposuction that was performed and your individual recovery.

What to Expect After Liposuction Recovery

Full results come within 3-4 weeks and continue to show improvement for up to a year as the tissue contracts back down over the sites.   The fat cells removed during the procedure cannot grow back, but fat cells in the surrounding areas can grow if you gain weight. It is important to prevent future weight gain after the surgical procedure by maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a good diet and exercise routine. Most patients can enjoy their liposuction results for many years.
