Tumescent and VASER Liposuction in South Boston

Yes, it is standard practice. Patients rarely have one area treated alone and more often combine several problem zones, such as abdomen and flanks or inner and outer thighs. Our surgeons will help define the optimal scope of surgery at the consultation, based on your health and the result you want.

No. It is not a weight-loss method. Liposuction removes local fat deposits that stay despite diet and exercise, reshaping body contours. When weight is unstable, a nutritionist or endocrinologist should be seen first.

The surgery is done through punctures just 3–7 mm across, which usually need no stitches. Once healed, the marks are barely visible, and with proper care during recovery they fade completely.

Assessing skin tone, elasticity and turgor before surgery is something the surgeon always does. Skin in good condition tightens naturally to follow the new contours. With reduced tone or stretch marks, our specialists will recommend preparatory treatments to improve the skin beforehand.

No. It is done under local or general anesthesia, depending on the scope. You may feel mild discomfort afterwards, which painkillers prescribed by the doctor relieve.

No physical exertion or lifting heavy things for the first 7 days. Wear compression garments for 4–6 weeks and stay away from the bathhouse, sauna, pool and active sport. Avoid alcohol and tanning beds for at least a month. After surgery your surgeon gives you all individual recommendations.

Surgery is performed for patients 18+ without contraindications. There's no upper age limit: each decision is individual, after an examination and assessment of health.

Not directly: liposuction removes fat but doesn't alter the skin structure causing cellulite. The improved body contours do, however, visibly reduce its appearance.

After 7–10 days most patients are back to work and their usual routine. By weeks 4–5 swelling and bruising resolve. Once the tissues have fully adapted, in 3–6 months, the final result forms.

No strict diet is required, but nutrition matters for keeping the result. Removed fat cells don't come back, but the remaining ones can grow if you gain weight. For a lasting result we recommend a balanced diet and regular exercise.

Yes. 7–10 days before liposuction, stop smoking, alcohol and medicines that affect blood clotting (aspirin, etc.). You also need pre-op tests: blood tests, ECG, ultrasound, and GP and anesthesiologist consultations. You'll get all instructions after your 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.
