Yes! Even though lipo is not a weight loss procedure it can give you a one to two year head start at the gym. After lipo, you will be more motivated since you will now see immediate results at the gym and it will help you break that vicious circle that you are stuck in.

No. The procedure is done under local anesthesia. After the procedure, it feels like you went to the gym and worked for a couple of more hours more than you normally do. If you never worked out it will feel like the first time you got on a treadmill for a couple of hours. Bottom line you will feel sore but should be able to resume your daily routine shortly.

Like all liposuction, local lipo/lunchtime lipo is not a method of weight control. Rather, it is a procedure designed to remove stubborn pockets of fat that will not respond to diet and exercise. Most candidates for laser lipolysis are within 25lbs of their ideal weight and have responded poorly to diet and exercise.

Local lipo/lunchtime lipo has been designed to treat localized pockets of fat in the following areas:
-Waist or (love handles)
-Chin
-Inner and outer thighs
-Hips
-Abdomen
-Arms
-Knees
-Male chest reduction

One main advantage of liposuction preformed at OKCLipo is the fact that it is performed under local anesthesia, so there is no need to recover from general sedation. Patients who have the procedure on a Friday are back to work and most activities by Monday. Most of our patients report little to no discomfort whatsoever. Expect to see initial results within 2 weeks and final results with optimal skin tightening effect within 6 months.

Following the preoperative and postoperative instructions provided to you will assist with a quick recovery. We also recommend use of Arnica Montana, an herbal supplement that will help with your bruising and swelling. It can be purchased online, at many health food stores, or at our clinic.

Power-assisted lipoplasty (PAL) is the favorite technology used in our Clinic to remove fat and assists in contouring of the body. Power-assisted liposuction is a variation of the basic liposuction procedure where a thin 6 to 8 inch probe is inserted through tiny incisions to dilated fat cells. The difference between regular lipoplasty devices and power-assisted wands is that the tip of the suction tube has the capability of vibrating. This vibrating cannula whirs at a high enough speed to create a particularly high frequency vibration. This high speed vibration disturbs and emulsifies the fat cells making them easier to remove from the body. This modality causes fewer traumas and bruising to the surrounding tissues.
