If you are struggling with areas of fat on your belly, back, or chest that don’t go away despite regular exercise and a healthy diet, male liposuction in Raleigh may be right for you. This procedure removes the stubborn fat deposits, allowing you to achieve the sculpted, toned physique you’ve been working toward. By working with board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Ortiz, you can reach your goals and experience confidence and pride in your body.
Liposuction for Men
Liposuction, or simply lipo, removes fat deposits from areas of the body. While women often focus on areas of the lower abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks, lipo for men tends to target the abdomen and sides, commonly called the “love handles,” as well as the breast, shoulders, and back.
Dr. Ortiz performs suction-assisted liposuction. During this procedure, he injects a solution of saline, water, and anesthesia into the targeted fat cells. Using a slim cannula, similar to an IV needle, the liquified fat is suctioned out.
During your initial consultation with Dr. Ortiz, he will discuss your options with you and determine which method will work best to help you get the results you wish to achieve. While bruising, swelling, and discomfort are typical for around 7 to 10 days, both types of liposuction for men offer minimal scarring and a downtime of only one to two weeks, while strenuous activity should be avoided for a bit longer.
