i am wondering if non surgical liposuction can give the same results as liposuction surgery, but without long recovery (read here bruises last 6 months!). i'd like to get fat taken out of love handles.

Answer: Liposuction is the Most Reliable Treatment Thank you for your question. Treatments like CoolSculpting and different Ultrasound techniques seem to be able to eliminate some fat, in some people, some of the time. None of these techniques are as powerful or reliable as liposuction, meaning tumescent liposuction.

Answer: Liposuction Liposuction is a surgical technique where fat is removed from the body through small incisions. There really is no non-surgical version. There are machines that can reduce fat in areas of the body non-surgically such as Coolsculpting. The results can be good, but usually multiple treatments are required to get the best results. If you consider the time and cost needed for repeated coolsculpting sessions, liposuction could be a better option for you. Laser liposuction techniques greatly reduce bruising and swelling after surgery.

Answer: Non-surgical fat reduction will not give same results There is no such thing as “non-surgical liposuction”; I suspect you are thinking of non-surgical fat reduction or body shaping devices such as CoolSculpting, Vanquish, Liposonix, UltraShape, or Kybella, which do not require incisions and have minimal to no downtime. Unfortunately, non-surgical devices will not give you the same results as liposuction. They can be effective for reducing small areas of fat over a series of treatments, and many people find them preferable to liposuction because of the lack of recovery time needed, but ultimately liposuction will give you more dramatic results after just one treatment. I suggest visiting a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon with experience in body contouring for an in-person evaluation and consultation to determine which type of procedure is best for you.
