What is liposuction?

Despite how much you diet and exercise, you may still have stubborn pockets of fat that prevent you from feeling completely confident in how you look. VIP Plastic Surgery in Las Vegas, NV offers advanced methods of fat reduction to effectively rid fatty tissues from certain body parts. Surgical liposuction is a body contouring treatment that reduces fat from areas, like a double chin, abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks, to create a more defined appearance. This cosmetic procedure at VIP Plastic Surgery can be combined with other surgeries and can treat several areas at a time. Even though lipo slims and reshapes certain body contours, it is not designed to remove cellulite or as a means for weight loss.

In a private consultation, Dr. Khorsandi will assess the areas of concern, ask questions about personal goals, and determine if a surgical fat reduction is what is needed to accomplish those goals.

Who is an Ideal Candidate for Liposuction?

When a patient consults with Dr. Khorsandi for liposuction, he will look for certain qualities that would make him/her a good candidate, including

  • Realistic expectations regarding the procedure
  • An average or slightly above average weight
  • Good overall health
  • Firm, elastic skin

Patients who have cellulite are generally not good candidates because liposuction may worsen the irregularities by creating deeper dimples. Liposuction can be used in several areas of the body, such as the:

  • Abdomen
  • Arms
  • Buttocks
  • Cheeks
  • Chest
  • Hips
  • Jowls
  • Neck
  • Inner knee
  • Lower back
  • Thighs

There is a consultation process in place for Dr. Khorsandi to assess the patient and make recommendations based on those findings.

The Liposuction Surgical Technique

Our patients at VIP Plastic Surgery can have surgical liposuction performed as an outpatient procedure under general anesthesia. A special fluid (containing epinephrine and anesthetic) is injected into the fatty tissue to minimize pain and bleeding. Small incisions will be made in easy-to-conceal areas, such as the waistline or belly button, for a cannula to be inserted. The cannula is a long, tube-shaped medical instrument that will assist Dr. Khorsandi as he manually works the fat loose and suctions it out. After the fat deposits have been removed, Dr. Khorsandi will close the small incision. Depending on the number of sections treated, liposuction may last several hours. On average, each body part (i.e. tummy, thighs, etc.) will take approximately 30 minutes to complete. In the dedicated recovery room, our post-op nurses will monitor and manage pain, care for the incisions, give detailed at-home instructions, and more until discharge.

Dr. Khorsandi has experience in various liposuction techniques, including tumescent, ultrasonic, SmartLipo, body jet, VASER, and tickle liposuction.

I was overdue for my breast implant replacement. I knew I wanted to go smaller, plus have a lift as well. A couple of years prior to my ten year replacement anniversary, my best friend invited me to VIP’s open house event. My friend use to work with Dr. Khorsandi, prior to him opening his own practice. She saw first hand how he consulted with potential patients and was in awe of his professionalism with his consultations. He never promised anything he couldn’t deliver and always had the patients best health reasons and safety in mind. This impressed my friend and why she always spoke very highly of Dr. Khorsandi and had the upmost respect for him. She also witnessed how devoted and serious he was in his career and how hard he studied for his medical board certifications. At the open house event, I met Dr. Khorsandi and he gave me consultation on what I wanted done with my breast reduction. I was very pleased with what he could offer me. He also suggested I get blepharoplasty surgery as well. I was in full agreement. When I was finally ready to have my surgical procedures done, I went to a couple of other plastic surgeons for consultations, but my instincts directed me to Dr. Khorsandi. I’m glad I did. He is very knowledgeable and professionalism all around. His staff is kind and always available to answer any questions. My procedure went very well and I am so delighted with the results. My breast reduction with lift looks very flattering for my body frame and my blepharoplasty took 10 years off my face. I’m so happy I went with my dear friend’s recommendation to have Dr. Khorsandi perform my cosmetic procedure. I will definitely use him in the near future for my next wish list procedure, liposuction. .

Minor stomach lipo & Fupa lift - overall, I really recommend VIP! - I figured to leave a good review on here. Because the Doctor is cool & does a good job for real. I was skeptic & scared at first due to lack of 'before & after' photos on the site or any videos, but thankfully, he really is good.I'm 5'3, 114 pounds. I had a minimal fat on my stomach that you could see mainly just when I sat down which is natural but I wanted to get rid of it anyway & Pubic area lift because after 10 pounds of Quarantine 2020 weight loss, that FUPA was just not going away. Dr. Khorsandi did a good job. The scar looked pretty scary at first but in 1 month it just turned into a thin pink line that will eventually fade.I read reviews that people complained that he seemed not very carrying, I must disagree, He's very caring. They are just really busy & have to take patients fast. So with FUPA lift... be prepared to have a brutal discomfort for the first 3-4 days. No pain really, just extreme discomfort, weird unpleasant sensations & slow careful walking. It gets better every 7 days I noticed.Anesthesiologist doctor was really cool too. I had panic attacks before the procedure from being afraid but everything went very well. It felt like I slept for 20 minutes when in reality it was about 2-3 hours. Prices at VIP are better than in stupid LA too. California is obnoxious with pricing! Overall, I really recommend VIP! You will not be disappointed.

Best Decision of my Life - I had a rhinoplasty and liposuction on my chin/neck area by Doctor Khorsandi exactly one year ago in July of 2020. I have hated my nose and side profile my ENTIRE life. I would never take pictures of myself looking to the side because I was so embarrassed of it. I finally decided that I needed to do something about it so I came to real self to look at doctors and read reviews. When I came across Doctor Khorsandi I was so impressed with the reviews and before and after photos I booked a consultation. The whole process was so easy and everyone was so nice! Doctor Khorsandi created an image of my nose and how it would turn out and I loved it but the day before my surgery there was something I wanted to change. I was hesitant to call and ask if this was something that I could do because I did not want them to be annoyed that I waited until the last minute, but I did and they were SO understanding. They got me right in and Doctor Khorsandi tweaked the image perfectly and with no complaints that I had been annoying and wanted a change lol. I truly can’t fully express in this review how happy I am with how everything turned out. I get so many compliments on my nose…literally just last night at the bar I was approached by a guy who said “I know this is a really random thing to compliment but you have a beautiful nose” and that was not the first time someone randomly approached me and said that since having my surgery. It’s the best feeling ever!!! Thanks so much to Dr Khorsandi! If you are thinking about getting this done, do not wait any longer!!

What Can I Expect After Liposuction?

Following the liposuction surgery, patients will wear a compression garment on the treated areas. It takes about a full week for the bruising and swelling to dissipate and can take several months for the final results to appear. Liposuction will produce scars where the cannula insertion incision is made. These are small and will fade over time. We will provide aftercare instructions for the treatment area to prevent major scarring.

What is the Expected Cost of Liposuction?

Liposuction costs will vary, depending on the technique used and the extent of the surgery. Virtual consultations are $100 and in-person consults $300 the consult fee goes towards the procedure they are non-refundable. The average cost of liposuction in the U.S. for the most common body parts are outlined below:

  • Abdomen: $3,000 – $7,000
  • Arms: $2,500 – $5,000
  • Buttocks: $2,500 – $4,000
  • Chin: $2,500 – $4,500
  • Inner thigh: $2,500 – $5,000
  • Outer thigh: $2,500 – $5,000
  • Hips/waist: $2,500 – $5,000
  • Ankles (in-office): $3,500

Are there any nonsurgical alternatives to liposuction?
Nonsurgical options for reducing unwanted fat do exist. Dr. Khorsandi can discuss other options (based on the candidate and the desired results) during the initial consultation. These options generally include laser liposuction treatments when surgery is not needed.
Can liposuction have lasting results?
If the patient follows a healthy diet and exercise program, the results from a liposuction procedure can last for many years. Even though it’s impossible for removed fat cells to come back, patients can gain weight if the other remaining fat cells grow.
Is there a fat limit for lipo candidates?
Yes. It is not recommended for surgeons to remove more than ten pounds of fat for the safety of the patient. High-volume liposuction, when more than ten pounds are removed, increases the risk of health complications. Patients should be near or at their ideal weight before undergoing liposuction surgery.
Will I have tighter skin after liposuction?
Liposuction is a procedure for fat removal only. It does not repair sagging or drooping skin. In fact, it can make baggy skin worse. Patients who are concerned with skin tightening can discuss their options with Dr. Khorsandi during the initial consultation.
