Liposuction
Refine your body contours and eliminate stubborn fat with precision liposuction.
Whether you’re targeting your abdomen, thighs, arms, or flanks, liposuction can help sculpt a slimmer, more confident you.
Introduction
Liposuction is a highly effective body contouring procedure designed to remove localized fat deposits that don’t respond to diet and exercise. At Ecobel Med Spa, our board-certified plastic surgeon uses advanced, minimally invasive techniques to precisely reshape targeted areas and enhance your natural proportions.

Types of Liposuction
We offer several liposuction techniques tailored to your body goals and skin type:
Tumescent Liposuction
The most common technique, this method involves injecting a sterile solution into the target area to minimize bleeding and discomfort. It allows for precise fat removal and smoother results.
Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL)
This method uses ultrasonic vibrations to liquefy fat, making it easier to remove. It’s especially effective in fibrous areas like the upper back or male chest.
Laser-Assisted Liposuction (SmartLipo)
Using laser energy, this technique melts fat while also promoting skin tightening. It’s ideal for small, delicate areas like the chin or arms.
Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL)
A vibrating cannula helps loosen fat for faster, less traumatic removal. It’s ideal for treating larger areas or dense fat pockets.
Each technique is selected based on your treatment goals, skin elasticity, and surgeon’s recommendation.
How Liposuction Works
Liposuction is typically performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation and takes 1–3 hours depending on the number of areas treated. Your surgeon inserts a thin tube (cannula) to loosen and suction out fat. Small incisions are strategically placed and closed with sutures for optimal healing.

Who Is a Good Candidate?
Ideal candidates for liposuction are:
In good physical health
Within 30% of their ideal weight
Have firm, elastic skin
Non-smokers
Struggling with stubborn fat pockets
Realistic about expected results
Liposuction is not a weight-loss solution or treatment for cellulite or loose skin.
How Dimpleplasty Works?
The treatment works well on its own or can be used with filler and other non-invasive options, making it an excellent alternative for those who don’t want surgery but still need a bit of refining and lifting. Even though the skin is only lifted by a few millimeters, in most patients, that’s enough to make a dramatic difference in the appearance of their face.
Often, PDO threads are like the icing on the cake after other treatments. And they can also be used to build upon the results of different treatments, like a liquid facelift. No matter where the threads are inserted on the face or body, they work towards lifting crepey, loose skin back to a more desirable position.
Recovery and Results
Recovery timelines:
Mild swelling and bruising expected in the first 1–2 weeks

Return to work in 5–7 days for most patients

Common FAQs
Yes, once fat cells are removed, they don’t return. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle is key to long-lasting results.
Incisions are small and strategically placed. Over time, they fade and become barely noticeable.
Mild soreness is expected post-surgery, similar to muscle soreness. Pain is managed with prescribed medication.
Multiple areas can be treated in one session depending on your health and surgeon’s assessment.
While liposuction removes fat, it does not tighten skin. Patients with poor skin elasticity may benefit from combining it with a skin-tightening procedure.

The Benefits of PDO Threads
The most significant benefit of PDO threads is the lift they provide. But the creation of new collagen is equally essential, which helps prolong the threads’ lifting effects even after they’ve been absorbed. Any new collagen is permanent and lasts unless it breaks down.
Other patients appreciate the downtime-free lifting benefits of threads without having to undergo surgery—a big plus!
Additional benefits of PDO threads include:
- No large incisions or cuts, which means no scars. Small incisions are made to insert the threads under the skin but they do not leave a scar.
- No general anesthesia so that you can drive yourself home after the procedure
- Immediate improvement with low risk. As the threads dissolve and the body creates new collagen, the results are even more noticeable–and better–around 8 to 12 weeks after the treatment.
- A more affordable option than plastic surgery
- Some minor downtime for three to five days after the procedure
The Different Types of PDO Threads
Different types and textures of threads can be used to address age-related issues. The main thread textures are smooth PDO threads and lifting PDO threads. Schedule a consultation today to determine the best type of threads for you!
These threads have a smooth texture and can be used to treat deep-textured acne scars. However, they do not lift the skin as a barbed thread does. Instead, smooth PDO threads dissolve under the skin and help stimulate collagen to smooth the skin’s surface while tightening and plumping it. These threads usually dissolve by about week six, and the full results can be seen around month two or three.
Unlike smooth threads, these are best for lifting the tissue so that the skin appears tighter. They can also be used to reshape a specific feature.

How Much Does a PDO Threads Cost?
Every patient is different, so we recommend a consultation to determine the cost of your PDO thread treatment. Our experienced team of skin experts and medical providers can further discuss the treatment with you and determine if PDO threads are right for you.
The treatment is tailored to your needs, which is why the cost ranges. All PDO thread treatments require the use of multple threads, and some procedures even use a mix of threads. Our team can customize a package to help you obtain the desired results. A consultation with our staff will ensure more accurate pricing.
