Liposuction in Providence

Yes, there are non-surgical fat reduction options available, such as treatments that use lasers, radiofrequency, or ultrasound to target fat cells without the need for surgery. These options can help reduce fat and tighten skin, but they may not provide the same dramatic results as liposuction. Non-surgical treatments also typically require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results. 

Laser liposuction provides surgeons with enhanced fat removal techniques that outperform the results of traditional lipo. Using laser-assisted equipment, the surgeons at Sono Bello in Providence can more easily extract fat, resulting in less postoperative discomfort and swelling. The laser used in TriSculpt micro-laser liposuction additionally helps to promote better skin contraction.  

At Sono Bello, we also use localized anesthesia instead of general anesthesia, which is used for most traditional liposuction procedures. The use of localized anesthesia keeps patients awake and comfortable during the procedure and minimizes risk and recovery time. 

Light activity, such as walking, is encouraged within 24 hours of your liposuction procedure. However, you should avoid strenuous exercise or heavy lifting for at least two weeks to ensure proper healing. Your surgeon will give you specific guidelines based on your individual recovery, so it’s important to follow their advice for optimal results.
