Liposuction in Fresno from $1,200

Yes, it's standard practice. Treating a single area alone is rare — patients more often combine several problem zones, e.g. abdomen and flanks, or inner and outer thighs. At the consultation, our surgeons will help define the optimal scope of surgery based on your health and desired result.

No, liposuction is not a way to lose weight. It removes local fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise and reshapes body contours. With an unstable weight, you should first see a nutritionist or endocrinologist.

The surgeon works through punctures only 3–7 mm across — usually no stitches needed. When they heal, the marks are barely visible, and proper care during recovery makes them fade completely.

The surgeon always checks skin tone, elasticity and turgor before the operation. When the skin is in good condition, it tightens on its own along the new contours. If tone is lower or stretch marks are present, our specialists suggest preparatory treatments to improve the skin in advance.

No — anesthesia is used (local or general, depending on the scope). Mild discomfort after surgery is possible; the doctor prescribes painkillers to relieve it.

The first 7 days: no exertion and no heavy lifting. 4–6 weeks: compression garments, with no bathhouse, sauna, pool or active sport. At least a month without alcohol or tanning beds. All individual recommendations come from your surgeon after surgery.

We operate from age 18+, if there are no contraindications. There is no upper age limit — after an examination and health assessment, the decision is made individually.

Not directly. Liposuction removes fat tissue but does not change the skin structure that causes cellulite. Still, improved body contours visibly reduce its appearance.

Most patients get back to their usual routine and work in 7–10 days. Swelling and bruising clear by weeks 4–5. The final result forms in 3–6 months, once the tissues have fully adapted.

A strict diet isn't necessary, though nutrition is important to maintain the result. The fat cells removed won't return, but those left can enlarge if you put on weight. A balanced diet and regular physical activity keep the result lasting.

Yes. Give up smoking, alcohol and medications that affect clotting (aspirin, etc.) 7–10 days before liposuction. Pre-operative tests — blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, GP and anesthesiologist consultations — are also required. You'll receive all instructions after the first consultation.

The first changes show at 2 weeks after surgery, with the main swelling down. An interim result is assessed at 1.5–2 months, and the final contours are formed in 3–6 months.
