However, that does not mean that you may not see dramatic differences. Often after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sarasotasurgicalarts.com\/body\/tummy-tuck-sarasota\/\">tummy tuck<\/a>, patients may go down several clothing sizes because the extra skin and fat removed caused their body to hold extra inches that would not go away otherwise. But, what about liposuction? How many inches can you lose with laser lipo?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>First, let\u2019s look at the goals of liposuction and what it actually does. Liposuction was designed to removed small, stubborn fat pockets around the body. It relies on the skin to contract over the coming months. If too much extra skin is present, then the patient may require a tummy tuck.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Therefore, patients will usually not see as many inches come off with laser liposuction. Some patients may remain the same clothing size, but their body may look more toned or proportionate. Others may find that they can go down one or two sizes with certain fat pockets removed.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Dr. Sessa can provide a better idea of what you can expect from laser liposuction after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sarasotasurgicalarts.com\/body\/liposuction\/\">liposuction consultation<\/a>. He can examine your <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Anatomy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">anatomy<\/a>, condition of the skin, and medical history to determine your personalized expected results.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>To schedule a consultation, call us at <a href=\"tel:941-923-1736\">941-923-1736<\/a>.
