Liposuction is one of the most popular plastic surgery procedures in Pasadena, especially for men and women interested in sculpting specific areas of unwanted localized fat. Pasadena residents who diet and exercise and still can't lose those pesky pockets of fat may be good candidates for  liposuction.

Pasadena plastic surgeons may perform a variety of liposuction techniques including ultrasound-assisted liposuction, power-assisted liposuction, super wet liposuction, and tumescent liposuction.

Several devices combine suction with laser or ultrasound technology to provide additional features. Some of these devices include VASER Liposelection, SmartLipo, Cool Lipo, and ProLipo.

Liposuction may not be good for people who have excessive skin laxity, since the procedure only targets extra fat. For those who need a reduction of excess skin, an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck may be more appropriate.

Tips for finding the right Pasadena liposuction surgeon

1. Ask your Pasadena liposuction plastic surgeon, what is your board certification and which professional societies do you belong to?
2. Is the facility where my surgery will take place an accredited facility?
3. What exactly can I expect during and after liposuction surgery?
4. Are there any alternatives to liposuction that I should be aware of?
5. May I see before and after photos of other Pasadena patients who have already had liposuction?
6. May I speak to a current patient who has already had liposuction?

Do not commit to liposuction with a Pasadena doctor or plastic surgeon based solely upon advertising, special pricing, or the referral of another patient before fully researching the background of the surgeon.
