Waist and Back Liposuction in Charlotte

A slender waist and a smooth back are desirable characteristics sought by many men and women. While exercise and a nutritious diet can help, they are not always successful. Many people don’t have the time to stick with a rigorous workout regimen and others don’t have the body type. 

Liposuction can help connect the dots to achieve the aesthetic results you are looking for. Liposuction is a popular body sculpting procedure that may be the most popular plastic surgery technique used. While it can be used on many areas of the body, a waist and back liposuction in Charlotte leaves you with fewer fat cells and a more sculpted and contoured core.

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat deposits from specific areas of the body. It is not a weight loss procedure; most people do not lose much weight from liposuction. However, it does improve body contours and proportions by permanently removing fat cells. 

Depending on the extent of the surgery, the procedure can be performed under local or general anesthesia. It targets stubborn fat deposits that have not responded to diet and exercise. Although liposuction permanently removes fat cells, you can still gain weight and fat can still be deposited in the same areas. That is because only an excess amount of fat cells are removed.

Waist and Back Body Contouring

Liposuction can help sculpt your back and waist, which offers many benefits to your appearance and self-confidence. The procedure targets stubborn areas of fat in the midsection and back that are often resistant to diet and exercise. This creates a smoother and more defined silhouette that can significantly boost your self-esteem and body image, improve the fit and appearance of your clothing, and provide a more balanced and proportionate look to your body. 

Removing excess fat in these areas can also improve your mobility and make physical activities more enjoyable. Overall, waist and back liposuction for men and women in Charlotte can lead to improved physical comfort, better posture, and a more youthful, toned appearance.

Types of Liposuction

During your consultation with Dr. Jeffrey Ditesheim, you will learn of the different types of liposuction procedures available in Charlotte and which liposuction option will best meet your needs. High definition liposuction is an advanced approach that intentionally sculpts the body and does not just remove large amounts of fat cells.

VASER liposuction is a precision system that is used to approach hard-to-reach areas, such as your back and love handles. It is an advanced system that uses high-frequency sound waves to break up fat tissue with the least amount of bruising. AquaShape liposuction is an alternative that helps get rid of excess fat along your waist and back by using focused water jets to separate the fat and then remove it.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Waist and Back Liposuction?

Liposuction can produce dramatic results without requiring an extensive surgical procedure. The recovery is typically far faster and easier than other types of cosmetic surgery. Men and women from Charlotte who are good candidates for waist and back liposuction are in good general health without underlying medical conditions that can increase the potential for complications during or after liposuction. 

Since liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, we recommend you have achieved your goal weight and maintained it for several months. Weight fluctuations after liposuction can reduce the positive effect of the procedure. Good candidates are also non-smokers or willing to give up smoking for six weeks before and after liposuction. 

Nicotine and smoking increase the risk of complications during surgery, impair healing, and increase the risk of infection after surgery. This includes any nicotine device such as smoking, chewing tobacco, nicotine gum naked, nicotine patches, and vaping. 

Smoking and nicotine also reduce your body’s production of collagen and elastin and increase your body’s destruction of the same molecules. Collagen and elastin are protein molecules that help your skin maintain structure and elasticity. Without collagen and elastin, your skin begins to sag and wrinkle more quickly.
