Liposuction and Abdominoplasty in Ft. Meyers…

The latest techniques maximize the amount of fat removed, minimize bleeding, and produce a smooth contour. The process begins with a consultation with Dr. Schneider. At the consultation, he will discuss with you your goals, evaluate the areas of concern, and together a treatment plan will be created. Liposuction is performed in our AAAHC certified operating room located in our office. For most patients, an intravenous sedation is utilized. Dr. Schneider will meet with you prior to the procedure and the areas of concern will be marked thus creating a road map for the procedure. Once you are asleep, small 4 millimeter incisions are made in inconspicuous hidden locations for the placement of the liposuction tubes known as cannula. An anesthetic fluid called toumescent solution is then injected into the regions to be treated. The toumescent solution contains two medicines: one that inhibits bleeding and the second that acts as an anesthetic for 12 -24 hrs. This solution allows much greater volumes of fat to be removed and makes the patient much more comfortable when they awaken. Once the solution is instilled the liposuction process is performed. At the conclusion, the incisions are closed and either a compressive garment, or kenesio-tape is applied to minimize swelling.

Age, weight change, and/or pregnancy can dramatically affect the look and shape of the abdomen. This can lead to excess or loose skin, fat, and bulging of the abdominal wall. The tummy-tuck or abdominoplasty is designed to address this. Looking to have an abdominoplasty in Ft. Myers.

When we combine an abdominoplasty and a thigh-buttocks lift, the result is called a body lift. The abdominoplasty removes excess skin and fat from the front of the torso and the thigh buttocks lift removes excess skin and fat from the flanks, hips and posterior torso. This procedure can dramatically reshape the torso circumferentially
