Liposuction procedure

The liposuction procedure is performed under general anesthesia. Once you are comfortably asleep, Dr. Kwon will begin by marking the targeted areas for fat removal. Using small, discreet incisions, the excess fat is carefully suctioned out to sculpt the body and enhance its contours.

If additional body contouring procedures were discussed during your consultation, they may be performed simultaneously, such as skin tightening or the removal of fat in specific problem areas like the abdomen, thighs, or arms.

After completing the liposuction, Dr. Kwon will close the incisions with fine sutures, ensuring minimal scarring. Compression garments will be applied to help with healing and reduce swelling. Cool packs may also be provided to ensure comfort during recovery.

What aspects of the body can be altered with liposuction?

Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that targets areas with excess fat. The body is composed of various regions that can be enhanced through liposuction. Some of the primary areas frequently treated during the procedure include:


  • Abdomen
  • Thighs
  • Hips
  • Arms
  • Chin
  • Waist


During liposuction, Dr. Kwon carefully removes unwanted fat deposits using a small, flexible tube called a cannula. The fat is suctioned out through a tiny incision, sculpting the treated area for a more defined and proportionate appearance. Depending on the areas being treated, the procedure can improve body contours and proportions.

Common liposuction techniques include:


  • Traditional liposuction, which uses a suction method to remove fat.
  • Tumescent liposuction, where a solution is injected into the fatty tissue to ease the removal process.
  • Laser-assisted liposuction, which uses laser energy to break down fat cells before suctioning.



Liposuction focuses on refining the body's shape by eliminating excess fat. This can enhance areas with stubborn fat that have not responded to diet or exercise. Liposuction may be performed on multiple areas at once, depending on your goals.

Total liposuction involves not only targeting specific fat deposits but also ensuring the skin tightens and contours smoothly after the procedure. Dr. Kwon may recommend combining liposuction with other body contouring techniques to achieve the best results.
