Salt Lake City Practice Offering Tumescent Liposuction and Body Contouring Procedures

We at the Institute of Facial & Cosmetic Surgery want you to feel proud of your body and have the confidence to wear anything you want. At our office in Salt Lake City, we offer body contouring procedures using tumescent liposuction techniques to make those goals a reality. Whether you feel self-conscious about your thighs, tummy, or love handles, tumescent liposuction can eliminate the stubborn deposits of fat or cellulite and give your body a smooth, contoured appearance. For some patients, liposuction may not be the best option for treatment due to the amount of fat that needs to be removed. For those patients, we may recommend more comprehensive procedures such as full body lift surgery,or a tummy tuck, which removes excess fat across the stomach, tightens the abdominal muscles, and eliminates skin that may have stretched during pregnancy or periods of weight gain.

The Tumescent Liposuction Procedure

At our office in Salt Lake City, the tumescent liposuction body contouring procedure begins with our surgeon making detailed markings on the skin of the area to be sculpted. These marking serve to guide him during the body contouring procedure. The area is then prepared with injections of a saline solution, which contains an anesthetic. Once the area is ready, our expert surgeon makes a few small incisions through which he inserts the cannula, or liposuction tube. Then with a back and forth movement of the instrument, he breaks up and removes the appropriate amount of fat, being careful to create smooth, even contours. Dr. Kennedy uses the most advanced methods of liposuction to provide superior results to his patients. Body contouring through tumescent liposuction also results in minimal bruising, very little swelling, and only minor discomfort after surgery.

Tumescent liposuction provides more slender, balanced proportions that enhance the overall appearance of the body. After undergoing body contouring to eliminate bulges of stubborn fat through liposuction, patients achieve a sleeker, slimmer body that may have been impossible through dieting and exercise alone. By adhering to a healthy lifestyle of regular exercise and a balanced diet after liposuction, the results of the procedure can be maintained long into the future.
