19 Nov Remove Fat: You Have Options! Lipo vs. Non-Surgical
If you are carrying around a little extra baggage that no amount of diet and exercise can seem to diminish, know that you have more than one fat reduction option. Liposuction used to be the go-to method to eliminate those pesky pockets of fat, but, today, there are more and more non-surgical body contouring options becoming available giving you options. At Dr. Shaun Parson Plastic Surgery and Skin Center we offer both liposuction and non-surgical Venus Legacy for your body contouring needs.
Liposuction – Tried and True
Lipo has been the gold standard of fat reduction for years, proving to be safe and effective. It can remove stubborn pockets of fat from various areas of your body to give you a slimming profile. Using a cannula, fat is extracted from your body. Although you will have a recovery period and will most likely have some degree of swelling, results do tend to become noticeable quickly following surgery.
Liposuction has the ability to remove more significant amounts of fat than its non-surgical counterparts. Also, it’s a great procedure to combine with other treatments such as a tummy tuck, body lift and mommy makeover to achieve optimum contouring results. By combining liposuction with other procedures, you’re able to eliminate the need to have multiple surgeries and still achieve the fat reduction results you want.
Venus Legacy – Less-Invasive Alternative
Not everyone that needs or wants fat reduction has large amounts of excess fat to be removed. For those people who are merely looking to make a little spot reduction on their trouble spots, non-surgical Venus Legacy is a great option. It doesn’t require surgery, so there isn’t much of a recovery period needed.
Using radio frequency technology, Venus Legacy essentially targets fat cells and melts them. Your body naturally eliminates them over time leaving you with a more sculpted and tone appearance. Treatment is quick and painless, allowing some people to go about their day as if nothing happened. Venus Legacy uses different size wands which enables you to use it on different parts of your body including your face and neck.
