Male Liposuction Newport Beach

The number one reason men are electing liposuction today is to enhance their physical appearance by surgically removing excess fat. Body-contouring, through means of liposuction, is best suited for men of relatively normal weight but have isolated pockets of fat that cause certain areas of their body to appear disproportionate.

When performing liposuction on men, Dr. Grover prefers “power-assisted liposuction”. Power-assisted liposuction is a new and important technology for body sculpting and contouring. It is a much gentler technique than traditional liposuction, resulting in less trauma and a quicker recovery. It is an excellent method for permanently removing unwanted fatty bulges and creating a sleek, more defined body. There are a number of advantages for using power-assisted liposuction, the most notably being increased safety, decreased anesthesia time, less bruising, faster recovery, and greater precision.

The “power” in power-assisted liposuction refers to the advanced instruments used to perform the surgery. Traditional liposuction is performed manually by using a thin stainless steel suction tube that is pushed through the fatty tissue by the surgeon to extract excess fat. Power-assisted liposuction uses a mechanical tube which removes fat tissue by a rapid back and forth motion of several millimeters. This micro movement in power-assisted liposuction is far more precise than having a surgeon manually perform it. Moreover, it is particularly useful for hard to reach areas that could not be suctioned properly using traditional methods.

Liposuction is generally performed as an outpatient procedure under local Anesthesia and most men can return to nonstrenuous work in 1-2 weeks.
