Despite a dedicated fitness routine and a balanced diet, many people struggle with stubborn pockets of localized fat that refuse to budge.
Liposuction is a body contouring procedure designed to remove localized fat deposits and create a slimmer, more balanced shape.
Dr. Ramiro Morales, MD, F.A.C.S., performs liposuction for patients throughout Miami and South Florida. Liposuction can be performed as its own procedure or combined with other surgeries, such as a tummy tuck, for a more complete result.
Liposuction is a body-contouring procedure, not a weight-loss surgery. It’s designed for patients who are already close to a stable, healthy weight but have specific areas of fat that haven’t reduced despite a strict exercise regimen and diet.
You may be a good candidate for liposuction if you:
During your consultation, Dr. Morales will review your health history and goals to confirm whether liposuction, or a combination of procedures, is the right fit for you.
Every patient has unique goals, which is why Dr. Morales develops a customized plan based on the treatment area, the amount of belly fat to be removed, and your desired outcome.
Tumescent liposuction is one of the most commonly performed techniques. A specialized solution is placed into the treatment area before fat removal to minimize bleeding, improve comfort, and allow for precise contouring.
During your consultation, Dr. Morales will explain the technique best suited to your body and desired results. More often than not, for women looking to restore their pre-pregnancy figure, liposuction is combined with a tummy tuck and breast surgery as part of a mommy makeover.
Patient safety, smooth contours, and natural-looking outcomes will remain the priority for us.
Recovery varies depending on the number of treatment areas and the extent of the procedure.
Most patients can expect:
Stage 1
Stage 2
Stage 3
Stage 4
Every patient’s body is different, and lipo results are tailored to individual anatomy and goals.
