Liposuction

Tumescent liposuction, also known as awake lipo is a new, advanced way to achieve a more desirable body shape. It is performed without the need for general anesthesia which allows for less complications, soreness, bruising, or scarring. Unlike traditional liposuction, the patient is awake during the process, and are able to communicate with Dr. Young during treatment. This enables better control and precision for improved results. During treatment, local anesthesia is administered to ensure optimal patient comfort. A specialized tumescent solution is then added to the fatty layers of skin tissue. This causes the fat tissue to swell and become tight, or “tumesced.” This makes it easier for Dr. Young to remove the fat using an extremely thin tube inserted beneath the skin. Using gentle and slow motions, the fat deposits are broken down and then quickly removed from the body. The area is then sculpted and smoothed for outstanding results.
