Treatments to compliment Liposuction?

In terms of beneath the chin and neck, procedures such as Renuvion J Plasma, or Facetite can help patient achieve a higher degree of contour by contracting the tissue through internal heating, causing it to tighten.
For the body, hitting the gym hard, taking peptides, and doing BodyTone are all excellent ways to increase definition in the body.
In our practice, we perform Renuvion J Plasma during the liposuction procedure so that our patients always receive amazing skin tightening in their bodies, especially after we remove fat from them.

Thank you for your question regarding treatments to complement and enhance your body post-liposuction. It's great to hear that you are proactive about maintaining and improving your results.

One of the most beneficial treatments after liposuction is lymphatic massage. This type of massage helps to reduce swelling and speed up the recovery process by promoting the drainage of lymph, which can carry waste and excess fluids away from the treated areas. Regular lymphatic massage following liposuction can also help to smooth out the skin and prevent fibrosis, which is the formation of hard lumps beneath the skin.

In addition to lymphatic massage, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is crucial. A balanced diet and regular exercise can help you maintain your liposuction results and improve your overall health and body contour. Exercise not only helps in maintaining weight but also improves muscle tone, which can enhance the appearance of your liposuction areas.

For skin tightening and smoothing, particularly under the chin and neck, you might consider treatments such as radiofrequency therapy or ultrasound therapy. These non-invasive treatments stimulate collagen production in the skin, leading to tighter and smoother skin over time. They can be especially effective in areas where liposuction has been performed, as they can help tighten the skin that may appear looser after fat removal.

Additionally, laser treatments can be used to further smooth and tighten the skin. Technologies like fractional lasers or more focused ultrasound treatments are used to rejuvenate the skin's surface and improve its texture and firmness.

You might also explore newer technologies such as cryolipolysis for any residual fat areas or high-intensity focused electromagnetic therapy (HIFEM) for muscle toning and enhancement, which can complement the fat reduction achieved through liposuction.

Ask your plastic surgeon for guidance and advice on your best complimentary procedures post-liposuction. I wish you all the best!

Sincerely,
Dr. Katzen

Thanks so much for your question,

Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) massage: MLD is a gentle massage technique that helps promote lymphatic drainage and reduce swelling after liposuction. It can enhance the body's natural healing process and improve postoperative recovery.

Maintaining a healthy diet and regular exercise routine is essential for optimizing and maintaining the results of liposuction. Adopting healthy lifestyle habits can help prevent weight gain and promote long-term satisfaction with your body contouring results.

Before undergoing any additional treatments, it's essential to consult with your plastic surgeon to ensure they are safe and appropriate for your individual needs. They can recommend the most effective combination of treatments to help you achieve your desired aesthetic goals.
