Factors such as pregnancy, aging, hormonal imbalances, obesity and slow metabolism cause excess fat to accumulate in the buttocks. Even stringent diets and rigorous workouts usually cannot eliminate this unwanted fat, making the buttocks a major problem area for most women. Female buttock liposuction in NYC can effectively address this concern and provide that trim, streamlined shape that most woman desire.
Though conventional liposuction can remove stubborn fat that is resistant to diet and exercise, the procedure is invasive and involves a long recovery time. It also results in loose skin and an increased possibility of dimpling or sagging after the procedure, especially in older patients with poor skin elasticity. Leading NYC plastic surgery facilities offer female buttock liposuction using the minimally-invasive FDA-approved Smartlipo Triplex workstation. The treatment involves using laser energy to remove excess fat, tighten the skin, and reshape the area to help women achieve a well-shaped posterior.
The advanced Smartlipo Triplex workstation features a small cannula with three powerful laser wavelengths – 1064 nm, 1320 nm and 1440 nm – that target and melt the excess fat so that it can be easily removed, without affecting the surrounding tissues. It also comes with intelligent delivery systems – ThermaGuide, SmartSense and ThermaView – that regulate energy delivery and prevent risks of overtreatment. Other key benefits of Smartlipo laser buttock liposuction treatment include:
- Performed under local anesthesia
- Reduced treatment time and downtime
- Quick and smooth recovery
- Minimal chances of complications
- Less bleeding and bruising
- Encourages the production of collagen
An experienced plastic surgeon will evaluate you thoroughly before recommending laser liposuction as though the treatment is minimally-invasive, not all women are ideal candidates. Good candidates for female buttock liposuction in NYC are women who have disproportionately large buttocks and are ready to undergo plastic surgery to address the concern. Candidates should be physically healthy, have firm, elastic skin, be psychologically stable, and have realistic expectations.
Buttock laser liposuction is performed on an outpatient basis using local anesthesia. The procedure begins with the surgeon marking the treatment site and numbs it with local anesthesia. After the area becomes numb, the small cannula of the device is inserted under the skin through a tiny incision. Laser energy is delivered to target the unwanted fat cells, causing them to liquefy. This liquefied fat is then gently suctioned out.
As the procedure is minimally invasive, recovery is much faster than with traditional liposuction surgery. Based on the amount of fat removed and other considerations, recovery of female buttock liposuction varies from person to person. Slight swelling and bruising should be expected, which will subside in few days. Patients can return to normal activities within 1 to 2 days after the procedure and resume low-impact exercise in 3-5 days. Patients will be advised not to perform strenuous exercise for at least a month. It is important to follow all post-op instructions carefully to minimize recovery time and prevent complications.
