Liposuction with Dr. Marie Noland | Langley, BC

You’ve taken every necessary step to achieve a healthy weight, but that last stubborn bulge around your stomach, back, arms, or thighs refuses to budge. Most people find that these areas are often the most difficult to contour, as the fat that gathers there is usually resistant to even strict diets and exercise plans. This can be extremely frustrating to people who have changed their lifestyles to improve their overall figure, appearance, and emotional well-being. It can lead to failure to see the weight loss success they have had and are continuing toward. Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that complements your weight loss journey to help you achieve your desired face and body shape.

Liposuction uses a specialized suction device to remove fat effectively and safely from hard-to-target areas of the face and body. This precision treatment contours the treated areas in a manner that enhances the patient’s natural curves while also minimizing scarring. The results are a visibly stunning, defined silhouette that looks and feels natural.

What Is Liposuction?

Dr. Noland performs circumferential liposuction, or Lipo 360, at her Langley, BC practice. Lipo 360 is a specialized body contouring procedure that eliminates obstinate fat bulges from around the stomach, waist, back, and flanks— in 360 degrees. As a versatile form of therapy, liposuction can be used to treat just one area, or it can be used as an all-over body contouring technique to optimally shape the entire figure. Depending on the treatment size and location, Dr. Noland can perform liposuction as an in-office treatment with oral sedation and local numbing agents or in a certified operating room with general anesthesia.

Regardless of the procedure plan agreed upon by you and Dr. Noland, you can rest assured that any liposuction treatment performed by Dr. Noland will be conducted to the highest medical standards and tailored to provide you with the greatest results possible.

What Are the Benefits of Liposuction in Surrey, BC?

Designed to banish bothersome fat pockets and allow the body’s natural contours to be revealed, liposuction in Langley, BC can also offer the following additional benefits:

  • A defined neck and chin profile
  • Reduction in male and female breast tissue
  • Reduction of back rolls
  • Sculpted arms
  • A flat, slender stomach
  • Elimination of love handles
  • Narrowed hips
  • Defined inner thigh gap
  • Enhanced buttock shape
  • Slimmed knees, lower legs, and ankles

One of Dr. Noland’s specialties is partnering the sculpting benefits of liposuction with a coinciding fat transfer procedure. This innovative treatment involves purifying the extracted fat and transplanting it into a secondary location where additional volume is desired, such as the breasts, buttocks, cheeks, or lips. Many patients choose fat transfer as a way to achieve more natural enhancement outcomes with implants or fillers.

Additionally, Dr. Noland sometimes recommends patients consider adding abdominoplasty to their liposuction surgery. Excess fat accumulated under the skin can cause it to stretch to accommodate the additional volume. As a result, when the underlying fat is removed, it can cause the skin to become loose. An abdominoplasty procedure removes loose skin so that it closely adheres to the muscles that were buried beneath the extracted fat. Tightening the skin combined with targeted fat removal further maximizes the silhouette sculpting results.

What to Expect from Your Liposuction Recovery?

Your recovery experience after liposuction is influenced heavily by the number and size of the treated areas. Patients undergoing circumferential body sculpting from head to toe will likely need to recover for one to two weeks prior to resuming normal activities. Patients who choose to contour only a few select areas may be able to return to their usual schedules within five to seven days. 

Any discomfort during the first few days after surgery is usually managed with over-the-counter pain medications, such as Tylenol, which can be taken every four to six hours. However, if Tylenol isn’t sufficiently alleviating your discomfort, Dr. Noland can prescribe stronger pain medication to help keep you comfortable as your body heals.

Swelling and bruising are to be expected in the treatment areas and can persist for up to 12 weeks after your procedure. Light exercise, such as walking, is encouraged to stimulate healthy circulation. You should refrain from engaging in strenuous exercise for four to six weeks to help avoid complications or injury. 

Due to the fluid and surgery-induced swelling, results may be obscured for the first several weeks. As such, the sculpting benefits may not be fully visible for 8 to 12 weeks, depending on the size and location of the treated zones. Maximum contouring may require up to six months to reveal full results; however, this waiting period is greatly rewarded by a permanently defined figure for patients who are diligent about maintaining a stable weight.

Are You the Perfect Candidate for Liposuction in Langley, BC?

Ideal candidates for liposuction in Langley, BC are at or near their ideal weight but still have areas where defiant fat refuses to leave despite diet and exercise. Candidates should be informed about their procedure and have clear expectations surrounding the capabilities and results of their liposuction treatment. Additionally, it is paramount to the success of their treatment that patients be in good physical and mental health and should be non-smokers or willing to quit smoking for six weeks before and after their procedure. 

During your consultation, Dr. Noland will review your medical history and discuss the details of your treatment plan by carefully customizing where you would like to remove fat to contour your figure. Once your treatment plan is curated, she’ll provide you with pre-surgery instructions and schedule your surgery.

What Is Involved in Liposuction Procedures?

Liposuction is performed either in-office with oral sedation and local numbing medication or inside a certified operating room using general anesthesia, depending on the location, size, and number of areas you wish to treat. 

When performing liposuction, Dr. Noland will first spend time carefully marking the areas you wish to treat so that she has a clear plan of how she’d like to contour the areas. Once she has her map in place and the areas are thoroughly numbed, small entry sites, or ports, will be created at each location. Following the creation of the entry sites, the areas underneath the skin are pre-treated with a specialized agent that breaks down the fat into smaller, easily extractable pieces. After the fat has been fragmented, the liposuction cannula is inserted under the skin. With precision, Dr. Noland will remove the available fat and sculpt the area to your desired results. Once Dr. Noland is satisfied with the results, sutures will be used to close the incisions, and you’ll be taken to a recovery room.
