Liposuction
Transform Your Body with Liposuction with Dr. Michelle Hardaway, a board-certified Michigan Plastic Surgeon.
If you’ve struggled with stubborn fat deposits that just won’t go away, even with diet and exercise, liposuction might be the solution you’ve been looking for. Liposuction (also known as lipoplasty or body contouring) is a popular procedure that reshapes and sculpts the body by permanently removing excess fat, helping you achieve a more proportionate and defined silhouette.

What is Liposuction and How Does It Work?
Liposuction involves making small incisions in targeted areas and using a specialized tube called a cannula to suction out fat cells. This cosmetic procedure is not a weight loss solution but is highly effective in eliminating stubborn fat pockets that resist traditional methods like diet and exercise.
Common treatment areas include:
- Abdomen
- Thighs
- Hips
- Buttocks
- Arms
- Back
- Face
Liposuction is often combined with other body contouring surgeries such as tummy tucks, mommy makeovers, panniculectomies, or body lifts to enhance your results.
Liposuction Techniques
At Aesthetic Plastic Surgery and Laser Center, Dr. Hardaway offers a variety of advanced liposuction techniques, each tailored to your specific body goals:
- Tumescent Liposuction: The most common method, using a mixture of lidocaine and epinephrine to numb the area and constrict blood vessels before removing the fat.
- Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL): Uses ultrasonic vibrations to liquefy fat cells, making them easier to remove—ideal for denser fat deposits.
- Laser-Assisted Liposuction (SmartLipo): Melts fat cells with a laser before removal, offering the added benefit of skin tightening.
- Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL): Utilizes a specialized vibrating cannula to break up fat more effectively, making extraction smoother.
Dr. Hardaway will recommend the most suitable technique based on your body’s unique needs and your aesthetic goals.
