Liposuction at Artlipo: How it Differs

At Artlipo Liposuction and Lipedema Surgery all our liposuction is done with patients awake using tumescent anesthesia. This means that the fat layer is prepared and injected with an anesthetic numbing fluid prior to having the fat removed. Awake liposuction is a very safe technique that has been popular since its creation in 1986. Aside from the anesthesia, it’s our techniques and procedures that make our liposuction much more advanced. Most of what we do is not taught in any training programs and are the advancements that Dr. Su has developed in his 17 yrs of practice. From taking the fat much more completely and employing muscle tensing on the part of the patient to achieve smoother results, to sculpting high definition to reveal muscle contours, and even using advanced techniques to achieve a higher level of skin tightening. We have come to distinguish this type of liposuction as Ultra-Complete High Definition Liposuction with Skin Tightening or UCHD-ST. Our technique is not based on some hyped up “laser technology or device”, it is skill based and dependent on our quality surgeons, and you get to see your results immediately during the surgery.
