The Benefits of Liposuction Surgery

Liposuction has several benefits beyond just removing fat cells. It can support long-term wellness by motivating healthy lifestyle habits post-surgery.

  • Can target multiple areas of the body
  • Enhances your appearance with body contouring
  • Gives you a confidence boost
  • Permanently removes fat cells
  • Re-shapes your figure
  • Eliminates stubborn and unwanted fat deposits

Liposuction Services in Sheboygan

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat deposits from targeted areas of your body. This surgery is designed to sculpt and contour your figure into your ideal body shape—it’s not a procedure for losing weight. During a liposuction surgery, one of our surgeons will make small incisions in your skin and insert a minimally invasive cannula (small tube) to loosen the fat cells. Once the fat cells are loose, the surgeon will carefully suction the fat cells out of your body with a surgical vacuum or syringe.

Dr. Butz and Dr. Thayer work to make recovery time as easy as possible for patients, but you’ll need to follow your surgeon’s aftercare instructions carefully. Our staff members are only a phone call away to address any concerns you may have during recovery.

Which Areas of the Body Does Liposuction Target?

Liposuction is a versatile procedure that can target multiple areas of the body. It’s ideal for removing fat deposits that don’t go away with traditional methods like a healthy diet and exercise. The areas where liposuction can be the most effective are:

  • Thighs
  • Hips
  • Waist
  • Abdomen
  • Buttocks
  • Neck
  • Back
  • Chin
  • Calves
  • Chest
  • Upper arms

It can be tough to know if liposuction is the right procedure for you without speaking to our team first. If you schedule a consultation, one of our surgeons will discuss all of the details with you and give you as much information as you need to make an informed decision. We’ll also offer you our expert opinion on whether the procedure is right for you based on your unique health factors.

How to Know if You’re a Good Candidate for Liposuction

It’s a big decision to get a surgical procedure like liposuction. Before you start your journey toward a more confident you, we want you to take the time you need to consider the procedure before you go through with it. Our priority is ensuring you’re well informed about the procedure itself, as well as aftercare requirements and how it could affect your overall health. When you meet with either Dr. Butz or Dr. Thayer, you’ll discuss your medical history, current weight, medications, and other factors that could determine if liposuction is a good procedure for you.

Here are some examples of the questions one of our surgeons will ask you at your consultation, to learn if you are a good candidate:

  • Are you within 30% of your ideal weight?
  • Are you in overall good health?
  • Do you smoke?
  • Do you have a healthy lifestyle?
  • Do you have excess abdominal fat?
  • Do you have firm, elastic skin?
  • Do you have good muscle tone?
  • What expectations do you have for the surgery?

Liposuction with Quintessa: What to Expect

1. First Consultation

You’ll meet with one of our surgeons, Dr. Butz or Dr. Thayer, to learn about the surgery and whether you’re a good potential candidate. The surgeon will explain how the surgery works and what you can expect, concerning both the pre-surgery preparations and post-surgery aftercare.

2. The Liposuction Procedure

Once you’ve finished the initial consultation and decided that you want to go ahead with the surgery, we’ll schedule a date for your procedure. Our team will fully prepare you for what to expect during and after the procedure.

During the surgery, one of our surgeons will make a series of small incisions. After loosening the fat cells and suctioning them out of your body, the surgeon will refine your body’s contour by reshaping the remaining fatty tissue.

3. Post-Surgery Care

When the liposuction procedure is done, you’ll have to follow the instructions that Dr. Butz or Dr. Thayer gives you for your aftercare. You can expect some bruising, swelling, and numbness for several weeks or several months following the surgery.

You will most likely have to avoid heavy lifting and rigorous physical activity for 2-3 weeks, but moderate physical movement, such as walking, is encouraged. You may also have to wear compression garments on the areas targeted by the surgery for up to six weeks.

How Long is Recovery for Liposuction?

Liposuction recovery can vary depending on the treatment area and the type of liposuction technique we choose to use. For most patients, a compression garment will be in place for the first 6-8 weeks after the procedure. You may have some numbness and swelling in the treatment area for several weeks to months. This is normal and will improve with time.

You should avoid vigorous exercise for at least 2 weeks and avoid lifting anything heavier than a gallon of milk. We always encourage you to be up and walking several times throughout the day.

The Cost of Liposuction in Sheboygan

The cost of a liposuction surgery depends on several factors—making it hard to provide a cost estimate without knowing a patient’s unique situation. At Quintessa, we partner with patient financing programs to help you pay for an aesthetic surgery with a flexible payment plan.

  • CareCredit: The health and wellness credit card called CareCredit is designed to help families pay for health and wellness treatments and has several financing options.
  • PatientFi: With the patient-friendly platform PatientFi, you can set up a monthly payment plan to cover the cost of an aesthetic surgery with Quintessa.

Which Liposuction Treatment is Best?

Submental Liposuction for Chin & Jowls

Neck fullness and double chins related to extra fat under the chin can be a troublesome area for many people. It is commonly related to genetics and resistance to diet and exercise. Fortunately, chin and jowl fat can be easily removed with the submental liposuction technique. With this technique, patients can expect the following:

  • Dramatically improved profile view and jawline
  • Skin redraping that leads to a longer-lasting result

If there is severe skin laxity or redundancy, a neck lift may be more appropriate to give you the results you’re looking for. Newer injectable products, such as Kybella, can be effective for minor fat deposits but liposuction is still the gold standard and produces a more dramatic effect.

Power Assisted Liposuction

Power-assisted liposuction or PALS uses specialized devices to help fibrous fat more efficiently. This is typically performed under general anesthesia and can provide more dramatic fat reduction and results. Some patients may be a candidate for “high definition” liposuction, which helps create more dramatic contours and shadows.

Aside from great results, key benefits of PALS technique include:

  • No pain during the procedure
  • More aggressive volume reduction
  • High definition results

Our board-certified surgeons will help you determine which liposuction technique is best suited to achieve your desired results.

Tumescent Liposuction

What makes this liposuction technique distinct from others is that it is performed in the office with only the use of local anesthesia to reduce pain and overall risk during surgery. Traditional liposuction uses tumescent fluid but also utilizes general anesthesia.

Aside from great results, key benefits of tumescent liposuction include:

  • No general anesthesia
  • Typically less invasive

Our board-certified surgeons will help you determine which liposuction technique is best suited to achieve your desired results.

Client Reviews

Liposuction FAQs:

How Long Does Liposuction Last?

Liposuction results can be permanent if you’re willing to make the necessary lifestyle changes following your surgery. Your surgeon will remove fat cells from your body during this procedure, but your remaining fat cells can expand if you gain weight or shrink if you lose weight. We encourage patients to eat a healthy diet and do regular exercise after this procedure.

Can I Lose Weight With Liposuction?

You won’t lose weight with liposuction, as it’s not a weight loss procedure. The purpose of this surgery is to remove excess fat. If skin tightening is a concern, your surgeon may recommend an additional procedure. Keep in mind, however, that the improved contours you have after the surgery could motivate you to maintain a fitness routine and healthy diet.

Is Liposuction Painful?

Your surgeon will manage any pain or discomfort by administering local or general anesthesia during the surgery. While you’re recovering, you can expect to have some bruising, numbness, soreness, and swelling. These should subside within several weeks, however.
