Tumescent abdominal liposuction is one method of liposuction that is available to help manually remove unwanted fat from the midsection. Dr. Philip Conrardy and his team at White Pearl Medical Spa in Des Plaines, Northwest Suburbs, IL, encourage patients to consider this method over more traditional liposuction and tummy tuck techniques. But why? Below are six benefits of tumescent abdominal liposuction when compared with more conventional solutions at a plastic surgeon’s office.
Improved appearance of the midsection. The first and most obvious benefit of tumescent abdominal liposuction is the improvement in appearance. This procedure targets stubborn fat deposits in the abdomen area, resulting in a flatter, more toned stomach. For those struggling with a “spare tire” or other unwanted belly fat, this type of liposuction can help our patients achieve a more sculpted and defined midsection.
Increased self-confidence and self-esteem. Along with improved appearance comes increased confidence. Many patients of ours struggle with body image issues because of excess abdominal fat, which can affect self-esteem and self-confidence. Tumescent abdominal liposuction allows individuals to feel much more comfortable and confident in their own skin, leading to an overall boost in self-esteem.
Enhanced physical health. While the primary goal of tumescent abdominal liposuction may be cosmetic, it can also have a positive impact on physical health. Excess fat in the midsection area has been regularly studied and linked to various health issues such as diabetes, heart disease, and high blood pressure. By removing this fat through liposuction, individuals may see improvements in their overall health and reduce their risk for these conditions.
Long-lasting results. Unlike crash diets or quick weight loss methods, tumescent abdominal liposuction provides long-lasting results. The fat cells the doctor removes during the procedure do not grow back, so the results can be permanent as long as a healthy diet and increased exercise routine are maintained.
Minimal scarring and downtime. Tumescent abdominal liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that uses small incisions for cannulas to remove fat cells. This results in minimal scarring and a much shorter recovery time compared to more traditional liposuction methods. Many patients are able to return to work and their normal activities within a few days of the procedure.
Improved body contouring and definition. In addition to targeting abdominal fat, tumescent liposuction can also be used for body contouring purposes. This means it can help create a more defined waistline and sculpted hips and even improve the appearance of love handles or back rolls.
