Body Contouring Liposuction Lexington, KY | Dr. Stephen A. Schantz, MD

Advanced Body Contouring Solutions

Despite dedicated diet and exercise efforts, many individuals struggle with stubborn fat deposits around the abdomen, hips, and thighs. Liposuction provides an excellent solution for targeted fat removal and body reshaping.

Liposuction Procedure Overview

• Precise fat extraction using small, inconspicuous incisions
• Designed for body contouring, not weight loss
• Minimal scarring with strategic incision placement

Ideal Candidates for Liposuction

Suitable candidates typically include:

• Individuals with localized fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
• Patients near their ideal body weight seeking contour improvements
• Individuals with good skin elasticity

Tumescent Liposuction Technique

Dr. Schantz utilizes the advanced tumescent technique, which involves injecting a specialized fluid to facilitate smoother fat removal, minimize bleeding, and reduce post-procedure swelling.

Treatment Areas

Common liposuction treatment zones include:

• Abdomen and flanks
• Thighs and hips
• Upper arms
• Neck and chin
• Back and chest

Recovery and Results

Patients can expect:

• Compression garment wear for approximately six weeks
• Initial discomfort managed with medication
• Gradual reduction of swelling over 2-4 months

Long-Term Expectations

Liposuction permanently removes fat cells from targeted areas. While remaining fat cells can expand with weight gain, the body's overall contour remains improved compared to pre-procedure status.
