Liposuction

Elite Plastic Surgery Miami performs liposuction to remove localised, diet-resistant fat deposits from the abdomen, flanks, upper back, thighs, calves, and other zones. Lipo 360 treats the entire torso circumference — upper and lower abdomen, upper and lower back, and both flanks — for a cohesive silhouette transformation. All liposuction is performed by board-certified surgeon Dr. Moises Salama within the clinic's state-certified on-site operating facility. Liposuction is frequently combined with tummy tuck, Brazilian Butt Lift, and other body contouring procedures as part of a comprehensive reshaping plan.

Liposuction at Elite Plastic Surgery Miami is performed by Dr. Moises Salama using tumescent and advanced suction-assisted techniques within a state-certified, on-site surgical facility. Tumescent liposuction involves the infiltration of a dilute solution of lidocaine and epinephrine into the target fatty compartments prior to aspiration. The vasoconstricting effect of epinephrine substantially reduces intraoperative blood loss, while the lidocaine provides localised anaesthesia that continues into the early post-operative period. Suction-assisted liposuction is then performed using hollow cannulas of varying diameters and tip geometries, selected to match the anatomical depth, fibrous character, and target volume of each treatment zone. Superficial and deep fat compartments are treated with different cannula approaches to achieve smooth, even contour reduction and avoid surface irregularities. Common treatment areas at Elite Plastic Surgery Miami include the upper and lower abdomen, bilateral flanks, upper and lower back, inner and outer thighs, knees, and calves. The clinic's Lipo 360 protocol addresses all torso compartments in a single operative session — upper abdomen, lower abdomen, upper back (bra-line area), lower back, and flanks — allowing the surgeon to sculpt a cohesive, proportionate waist-to-hip transition that would not be achievable by treating individual zones separately. Liposuction at the clinic is frequently performed in combination with other procedures: fat harvested during liposuction serves as the graft material for Brazilian Butt Lift; abdominal liposuction frequently accompanies tummy tuck to optimise overall contour; and Renuvion J-Plasma is used after fat removal in areas of greater skin laxity. Post-operative compression garments are provided and worn for several weeks to support tissue adherence to the new contour and to manage swelling during the healing period. Final contour results continue to improve for three to six months as residual oedema resolves. Liposuction is intended for patients at or near their target weight with localised fat deposits that have been resistant to diet and exercise — it addresses fat volume and contour, but does not replace a healthy lifestyle or serve as a weight loss procedure.
