Liposuction

Portland Plastic Surgery Group offers liposuction for targeted fat removal and body contouring, performed by four board-certified plastic surgeons at the Pearl District location. The procedure addresses exercise-resistant fat deposits across the abdomen, flanks, back, hips, thighs, arms, and other areas. Liposuction can be performed as a standalone body contouring procedure or combined with tummy tuck or Mommy Makeover surgery in a single anaesthetic session. Pricing is case-specific and provided following consultation, with the practice's all-inclusive model covering all professional and facility fees.

Liposuction at Portland Plastic Surgery Group is performed by a team of four board-certified plastic surgeons, targeting subcutaneous fat deposits that persist despite diet and exercise across the abdomen, flanks, lower back, hips, buttocks, inner and outer thighs, knees, arms, and submental area. The procedure uses a small cannula inserted through discrete incisions to aspirate fat cells, with tumescent technique delivering a solution of saline, local anaesthetic, and adrenaline into the target area prior to aspiration. This approach reduces intraoperative blood loss, provides post-operative pain control, and allows more precise fat removal with even tissue contraction during healing. The volume and distribution of fat aspirated are determined during a pre-operative consultation based on the patient's anatomy, skin quality, and contouring goals. Skin retraction following liposuction depends on the patient's skin elasticity; patients with significant skin laxity in the target area may be better served by a skin-excision procedure — such as tummy tuck, arm lift, or thigh lift — either as an alternative or in combination with liposuction. The practice offers Mommy Makeover packages combining liposuction with tummy tuck and breast surgery in a single anaesthetic event where patient safety criteria permit, reducing total recovery time compared to staging procedures separately. Pricing for liposuction is case-specific rather than published at a fixed starting price, reflecting the variability in area count, volume, and operative time; the practice's all-inclusive model covers surgeon, surgical assistant, facility, and anaesthesiologist fees plus CosmetAssure complication insurance. Monthly payment plan financing is available for all procedures at the Portland Pearl District location.
