It’s not vanity…It’s confidence!

What is HD Lipo?

Sometimes you need a jump start to achieve your new and improved self.  At Internal and Family Medicine, we help you to achieve the body you’ve always wanted without the medical risks , downtime and difficult recovery of traditional liposuction.   We offer the latest advancement in body contouring,  High Definition Liposuction, to help to re-sculpt your body to give you the results that you desire.

HD Lipo uses  gentle vibration to increase patient comfort, decrease procedure time, increase skin tightening and improve the smoothness of the results over other liposuction technologies.

 Who Can Be Treated?

With The latest advancement in body sculpting, the age and weight restrictions for treatment  have been lifted.  Many patients have localized fatty deposits that have been resistant to diet and exercise and are within 30 pounds of their ideal weight.  However, unlike many liposuction technologies, HD Lipo can also be used to treat patients with significant weight loss goals that need a jump start to help improve their confidence and comfort during exercise.  The most important factor is  a commitment to maintaining a healthy, stable weight post-treatment in order to preserve the results most effectively.

What Areas Can be Treated?

The most frequent areas treated by liposuction in men are the “love handles,” breasts, abdomen and chin. In women they include thighs, hips, buttocks, stomach, knees, lower leg, arms, “bra fat,” and double chins.  Dr. Sierra De Aragon and her skilled staff can help you determine the areas that will make the most visible difference in the sculpting of your new body contour.

What Can I Expect?

Following your HD Lipo procedure you will see a generalized improvement in the contour of the area treated, leading to a more shapely form.  Irregularities in the skin present before the procedure (such as stretch marks) will not necessarily be improved with your liposuction procedure.  The vibration of the HD Lipo device gently removes the fat while keeping the connective tissue intact, and helps to stimulate the production of collagen for up to 6 months  post-treatment.  Excessive skin folds with large volumes of fat removed often tighten up considerably during this period and most have excellent results with liposuction alone.

Immediately  following your procedure, you will be dressed in a compression garment and will walk out of the office.  Most patients feel tender and sore in the treated areas, as if they had worked out extensively, but this discomfort resolves within a few days to a week.  Most patients feel good enough to return to work within 24-36 hours.
