Liposuction Tampa

AQUALIPO® PROCEDURE

Aqualipo®’s innovative water-jet technology produces body-sculpting results with a process that is minimally invasive and efficient. Aqualipo® can be used for the body, face, neck, and more. A cannula is inserted into the area where fat will be removed. Once the cannula is inserted, water is used to loosen and remove excess fat. Thanks to Aqualipo®’s gentle fat-flushing technology, surrounding tissues, skin, muscles, nerves, and blood vessels are undisrupted during the procedure.* Aqualipo® does not result in blood loss and patients experience less swelling and bruising. Water lipo is performed with local anesthesia, and typically takes only 45 minutes to perform. Aqualipo® results in a slimmer, sculpted, natural-looking appearance due to being such a gentle procedure.

LIPO 360 PROCEDURE

The Tampa Lipo 360 procedure uses general anesthesia to make sure patients are comfortable during their procedure. A small cannula is carefully interested beneath the skin to remove unwanted fat around the entire waistline. Lipo 360 can target the abdominals, obliques, flanks, and mid-to-lower back 360 degrees around. Lipo 360 can create a more slimmer and contoured appearance. The amount of fat removed from specific areas will be dependent on what areas the patient would like to address, as well as what will help produce the most symmetrical results. Mild swelling and bruising can occur, but will generally subside within a week of the procedure. The results from Lipo 360 are transformative and natural-looking.

SMARTLIPO™ PROCEDURE

Smartlipo™ uses laser technology that has fat removal and skin tightening benefits that produce visible results. A 1 to 2-millimeter incision is made to insert a cannula equipped with laser technology. The inserted cannula, guided by a handpiece, uses the laser to detach fat from the unwanted areas. The hemostatic properties of the laser ensure that there is minimal swelling, bruising, and bleeding during the procedure. The Tampa plastic surgeon can accurately remove excess fat due to the laser being visible under the skin. Smartlipo™’s laser technology combines skin tightening and fat removal for a natural-looking appearance.

CANDIDATES FOR LIPOSUCTION

Liposuction is an effective procedure for those that wish to sculpt areas resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction is so effective because of its precision in targeting the midsection, flanks, back, and other troublesome areas. Candidates that exercise and lead a healthy lifestyle tend to have the best results after their liposuction procedure. Dr. Bassin can help you determine which liposuction procedure is suitable for the goals you’d like to achieve.
