Even though you diet and exercise, pockets of fat might still bother you, keeping you from feeling completely confident in how you look. Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery offers the most advanced methods to safely remove fat from the body.
Liposuction and Lipo 360 in Silver Spring are body contouring treatments that reduce pockets of fat from the flanks, tummy, buttocks, and thighs to create a more defined appearance. This cosmetic procedure at Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery can be blended to treat multiple body parts.
Also known as circumferential liposuction, Lipo 360 aims to minimize excess fat all around your abdomen, including the front, sides, and back. Conversely, traditional liposuction focuses on the front of your abdomen and parts of your side.
When you visit our office in Silver Spring, MD, for your in-depth consultation, Dr. Tsion Berhane will assess the areas of your body you wish to address so you can attain your personal goals. Our goal is for you to look and feel your absolute best.
Liposuction is an excellent procedure for patients who are at an ideal weight but have troublesome areas of fat that cannot be lost with exercise and diet. Belly and back fat are often challenging to target with diet and exercise. This is where Lipo 360 can help. The procedure can create a full body contour around your midsection while targeting problematic areas, like muffin tops or love handles.
Patients considering liposuction should have good skin laxity because liposuction does not address stretched-out skin. Because liposuction and lipo 360 are not weight loss procedures, it is important to have reached or be within several pounds of your target weight. During the procedure, you will lose a few pounds since fat is taken from your body to create a sculpted look.
You may be an ideal candidate in Silver Spring for liposuction or lipo 360 if:
If you have excess fat deposits on your body that do not respond to lifestyle changes like diet or exercise, these procedures may be a good fit for you.
Our team at Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery in Silver Spring will partner with you to determine whether liposuction or Lipo 360 are appropriate procedures for you and develop a treatment plan you can be confident about.
Not all liposuction procedures are the same, and one of the advantages of working with Dr. Berhane is the ability to tailor your treatment to the specific areas that concern you most. Beyond the standard and 360 approaches, Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery offers a range of targeted liposuction options for our Silver Spring patients that allow for precise contouring across multiple regions of the body.
For patients who carry excess fat across the full back, upper and lower, full back liposuction addresses both zones in a single procedure, smoothing the silhouette from the shoulders down to the waistline. This is a particularly popular option for patients who feel that back fat affects how clothing fits and how they carry themselves. Upper back liposuction specifically targets the area around the bra line and beneath the shoulders, where fat deposits can be especially resistant to diet and exercise. Addressing this zone can dramatically improve the overall appearance of the upper body and is frequently combined with Lipo 360 for a fully comprehensive result.
Front liposuction focuses on the abdominal area, including the upper and lower abdomen, and can be performed as a standalone procedure or as part of a broader contouring plan. For patients who are near their goal weight but struggle with persistent fullness in the front of the midsection, this targeted approach can create meaningful definition without requiring a more extensive procedure.
One of the most exciting options available at Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery is chin liposuction combined with J-Plasma skin tightening. Submental fat, the fat beneath the chin, is a common concern that can be difficult to address through lifestyle changes alone, and it can significantly affect the profile and overall facial harmony. Chin liposuction removes this localized fat deposit through a small, discreet incision, creating a cleaner jawline and a more defined neck contour.
When paired with J-Plasma, the results go a step further. J-Plasma is a technology that uses cold helium plasma energy to tighten the skin from the inside out, stimulating collagen production and causing the skin to contract. This is especially beneficial in the chin and neck area, where skin laxity often accompanies fat removal. The combination of liposuction and J-Plasma in this region can produce results that rival more invasive procedures, with less downtime and a more natural-looking outcome. Dr. Berhane will evaluate whether this combination is appropriate for you based on your anatomy and the degree of skin laxity present.
This treatment is performed in an outpatient setting with the patient under local anesthesia and mild sedation. A punch-hole incision is made in the skin so a cannula can be placed. The cannula is a tube that makes it easier to loosen the fatty tissue as it is being removed. Dr. Berhane will seal the incision after suctioning the desired amount of fat deposits.
The Lipo 360 procedure in Silver Spring is more extensive than liposuction. It is typically performed under general anesthesia, so you will not be awake during the process. During surgery, patients are turned so fat can be removed from multiple sections of the body. Depending on the number of sections receiving treatment, your procedure could last one to three hours. In a separate area for recovery, our post-op team will help manage any pain and care for your incisions until your discharge.
You may need to recover at home from liposuction surgery for one to three weeks, depending on the number of areas treated and the amount of fat removed. It is typical to have bruising and swelling for one to two weeks, and you should have stitches removed seven to 10 days after surgery.
After liposuction surgery in Silver Spring, the most important thing is to give your body time to rest and heal. When you return to your regular routine after your procedure, taking things slowly and gently is essential. To increase your strength, stick to short walks and light workouts, as advised by Dr. Berhane.
Keep in mind that you may notice some improvements after six weeks, but it will take around six to 10 months before your new body shape and contour are complete.
Especially if your weight stays stable, liposuction or liposuction 360 results are typically long-lasting. However, your body is expected to lose some firmness as it ages.
Dr. Berhane and the team at Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery will discuss what type of results are achievable from your personalized treatment plan. Everyone is unique, and we will ensure you know what to expect during the procedure.
The cost of liposuction varies depending on the technique selected and the number of areas being addressed. In your consultation, Dr. Berhane will develop your personal liposuction surgical plan based on your needs and goals, considering your budget.
When your plan is ready, estimated costs can be discussed. To make your cosmetic surgery easier to afford, Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery accepts many payment options, and we will help you find low-interest medical financing.
Surgical liposuction only corrects excess fat in the body. Dr. Berhane may suggest combining liposuction with a surgical body lift if you have loose skin. Lipo is often performed with skin tightening surgery, such as a:
to produce the best results.
Since liposuction is a surgical procedure, incisions will be made and stitched. This will leave scars; however, Dr. Berhane will work to reduce their appearance. This includes making thin incisions in less visible areas or the natural folds of your body. After your surgery, Dr. Berhane or a member of her team will explain how to care for your incisions, so they heal correctly and eventually fade.
Before liposuction, it is crucial to be committed to maintaining your results. While liposuction reduces the number of fat cells in your body, you can still lose and gain weight. Dr. Berhane recommends that you be at or close to a healthy weight prior to liposuction surgery. Afterward, it’s best to remain within 5 – 10 pounds of your post-surgical weight. We have weight management counseling and supplement options available to help you stay at a healthy weight. Pregnancy after liposuction will also alter your results; however, another surgery, like a tummy tuck, can be performed to refresh your body.
Because every patient’s body is different, Dr. Berhane approaches each consultation with a blank slate, listening carefully to your concerns, evaluating your anatomy, and designing a treatment plan that reflects your specific goals. Many patients find that combining two or more targeted liposuction approaches, such as Lipo 360 with upper back liposuction or front liposuction with chin contouring, produces a more harmonious and satisfying outcome than any single procedure alone.
Whether you are looking to address a single area or are interested in a more comprehensive transformation, our team at Jubilee Cosmetic Surgery is here to help you understand every option available to you. Dr. Berhane’s depth of experience and commitment to individualized care means that your plan will be built around you, not a template.
We invite you to reach out to our Silver Spring office to schedule your consultation with Dr. Berhane and take the first step toward the contoured, confident silhouette you have been working toward.
