Can Liposuction Give me an Hourglass Figure?

Liposuction is a unique procedure that removes unwanted fat from many areas of the body. It can be used to reshape specific parts of your anatomy to create gorgeous curves. If you feel a bit embarrassed or self-conscious about your abdomen, hips, or thighs, the cosmetic staff at Omar Ahmed, M.D. can create a personalized treatment plan for creating the figure you want.

Do you want an hourglass figure with curves in all the right places? Try body sculpting with board-certified plastic and reconstructive surgical specialist Dr. Omar Ahmed. We're proud to use state-of-the-art tools and techniques to get the best results possible in Pasadena, CA.

What happens during a liposuction assessment?

Dr. Ahmed uses liposuction for fat removal in men and women with stubborn areas that can't seem to slim down, even with a consistent diet and exercise program. Sit-ups and crunches may not be enough to treat targeted fat deposits.

During your liposuction consultation, Dr. Ahmed will ask you to describe your expectations. He will also examine the areas where liposuction is to be performed and suggest the best plan based on your body type or preference. If fat removal is appropriate for your concerns, we can create a custom treatment to suit all of your needs.

How does liposuction treatment work?

Liposuction is an innovative body sculpting method that uses a thin, hollow tube to vacuum out fat. It's a minimally invasive method and leaves the surrounding tissue undamaged, allowing patients to heal faster. Typical liposuction treatment in Pasadena, CA takes around 1 – 3 hours, depending on how much fat is being removed.

How soon after treatment can I return to normal activities?

Patients can resume their usual routines within a few weeks. You may experience some bruising or tenderness, but the discomfort is usually tolerable with pain medication. We ask that patients avoid strenuous activities, such as running or working out at the gym, for a few weeks. While you may see some changes in six weeks, it may take 6 – 10 weeks for your new contours to finally settle.

Why should people consider liposuction?

Areas suitable for liposuction include the abdomen, hips, thighs, knees, flanks (love handles), chin, arms, and buttocks. Or you may choose to have multiple areas treated at once if you want a complete transformation. In this way, women who want an hourglass figure can personalize their body sculpting treatment and accentuate the curvaceous figure they desire.

Many people see their bodies differently because of weight fluctuations, previous pregnancies, or for other reasons. Small fat pocket bulges may not represent the beauty you feel on the inside, so it's time to turn things around. Liposuction can help create a figure that shows how radiant and confident you really are from every angle.

Here's why our patients at Omar Ahmed, M.D. choose liposuction treatment over other methods of fat removal:

Flatter stomach
Smaller waistline
Curvy hips and thighs
Firmer, smoother contours
Increased confidence and sex appeal
