Liposuction

Liposuction in Charlotte, NC

Liposuction can remove excess fat. Carolina Age Management Institute offers liposuction for men and women in Charlotte, Huntersville and surrounding areas in North Carolina.

What is Liposuction?

Lipo is a surgical procedure that removes excess fat from problem areas on the body. We recommend lipo for men and women who have tried to tone areas through diet and exercise.

Lipo uses several methods for dislodging and melting fat so that it can be easily removed through suction. This procedure relies on high-intensity light energy to destroy fat cells to enable removal through a suction device. Carolina Age Management Institute offers SmartLipo™ laser liposuction.

What is Lipo Sculpting?

Rather than remove all fat from an area, lipo sculpting aims to sculpt the fat, such as in the abdominal area to create the look of defined abdominal muscles or in the chest area on men who want a more masculine appearance.

What is Awake Lipo?

Some men and women want liposuction but prefer to not undergo general anesthesia. Awake lipo may be an option. Local anesthesia is all that is needed.

What are the Benefits?

  • Used on common problem areas
  • Removes stubborn fat
  • Precision control over the amount of fat

How is it Performed?

Small incisions are made in the treatment area. The incisions are small enough as to not require sutures, and this means that the scars are barely visible. A thin, flexible tube is inserted into the incision to remove the fat.

How Do I Prepare?

Lipo is not a weight loss solution, so you should be near your ideal weight and dedicated to a lifestyle that includes eating healthy foods and being active. If you have lost weight, we recommend that you wait at least 12 months before having liposuction.

What is Recovery Like?

The incisions heal rather quickly, yet you may experience tenderness, swelling and bruising in the treatment area. You will need to restrict your activities as you heal.

What are the costs?

Liposuction is customized to the patient, so the cost varies. At the time of your consultation, we provide a cost to you, and we explain our financing through CareCredit®.

Is Lipo Right for Me?

If you have tried to tone an area of your body and had little success, you may be a good candidate for lipo.

Do I Need a Consultation?

We recommend that you meet with Dr. Giordano for a consultation to learn how lipo may help you contour areas of your body. He explain the benefits of liposuction for your case and what results you may expect from the procedure.
