Liposuction in Denver
Sculpted, Natural Results from a Female Plastic Surgeon You Can Trust
Let’s talk liposuction
At Amavi Aesthetic Surgery in Denver, we understand that achieving your desired body shape can be challenging, especially when stubborn fat deposits resist diet and exercise.
Liposuction is a transformative procedure that removes excess fat, helping you achieve a more sculpted, contoured physique. Common target areas include the abdomen, thighs, hips, arms, back, and under the chin.
This procedure is ideal for individuals near their target weight seeking to enhance their body contours.
Procedure Details
During your personalized consultation, Dr. Aline Rau will assess your unique anatomy and discuss your aesthetic goals. She will provide detailed instructions on preparing for the surgery, including any necessary medication adjustments and lifestyle considerations.
The procedure involves making small, strategically placed incisions through which a cannula is inserted to gently loosen and remove excess fat.
Depending on the complexity and your preferences, liposuction can be performed under local (awake liposuction) or general anesthesia.
Awake Liposuction
Awake liposuction is a modern, patient-friendly approach to fat removal. You’re comfortably awake (but numbed with local anesthesia), so there’s no need for IV sedation or general anesthesia. Dr. Aline Rau will numb the treatment area and provide you with medication to help with anxiety.
Benefits of awake liposuction:
Faster recovery
No hospital stay
Lower Risk
Real-time Feedback
Awake procedures are less costly than general anesthesia. Patients do not have to pay extra money for another specialist.
What areas of the body can Liposuction treat?
Abdomen
Back
Bra Roll
Neck (under the chin)
Upper arms
Waist and love handles
Hips
Thighs
Inner knees
Calves
Ankles
Male chest to treat excess breast tissue (gynecomastia)
Liposuction can be performed on multiple areas at once or in conjunction with other plastic surgery procedures, such as a tummy tuck, arm or thigh lift, or breast augmentation.
Recovery & aftercare
Post-procedure, it’s normal to experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which typically subside within a few weeks.
Dr. Aline Rau will provide pain management options and may recommend wearing compression garments to reduce swelling and support the treated areas.
Our team is dedicated to supporting you throughout your recovery, offering unlimited follow-up visits to ensure optimal healing and satisfaction with your results.
