Revision Liposuction In Richmond

When previous liposuction results are less than satisfactory, revision liposuction performed by Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin in Richmond and Tysons Corner can help refine and enhance your body contours. This specialized procedure addresses irregularities, asymmetry, and other concerns from an initial liposuction treatment to deliver the beautiful, balanced results you deserve.

What is Revision Liposuction?

Revision liposuction is a corrective surgical procedure designed to improve the results of a prior liposuction treatment. It involves addressing and correcting issues such as uneven fat removal, lumps, and contour irregularities that can sometimes occur after an initial liposuction procedure. This process often requires a higher level of precision and expertise, as the surgeon must work with tissues that have already been altered. Dr. Burton Sundin and Dr. Reps Sundin utilize advanced techniques to meticulously sculpt and refine these areas, ensuring a smoother and more natural-looking contour. The ultimate goal is to achieve a harmonious balance that enhances your overall appearance and restores your confidence.

Am I a Good Candidate for Revision Liposuction?

Candidates for revision liposuction should meet certain important criteria to ensure the best possible results and a smooth recovery. It’s essential that you are fully healed from your initial liposuction procedure, typically at least six months post-surgery, to give your body adequate time to recover. Being in good overall health is crucial, and if you’re a smoker, you must be willing to quit before and after surgery to promote optimal healing. Having realistic expectations about the outcomes is important, as revision liposuction aims to address and correct specific issues from a previous treatment. If you’re struggling with cosmetic concerns from a prior liposuction procedure, we are here to help you achieve your desired look with compassionate and personalized care.

What Happens During a Revision Liposuction Procedure?

During a revision liposuction procedure, the surgeon begins with a comprehensive consultation to understand your specific concerns and desired outcomes. This involves a detailed assessment of the previous liposuction results and carefully examining the areas needing correction. Based on this evaluation, a customized surgical plan is developed to address the identified issues.

Small incisions are made in discreet locations on the day of the surgery to minimize visible scarring. Using advanced liposuction techniques, the surgeon meticulously removes or redistributes fat to smooth out irregularities and achieve a more balanced contour. The procedure may involve the use of technologies such as power-assisted liposuction or ultrasound-assisted liposuction to enhance precision and effectiveness.

Throughout the process, the surgeon focuses on achieving a natural look that complements your body’s proportions. The entire procedure is performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia to ensure your comfort. Detailed aftercare instructions are provided post-surgery to support your recovery and optimize the results.

Revision Liposuction Recovery

Recovery from revision liposuction varies depending on the extent of the procedure, but patients can look forward to a positive experience. Mild to moderate discomfort is managed with prescribed medications, and while swelling and bruising are expected, they typically subside within a few weeks. Wearing a compression garment aids healing and optimizes results, and regular follow-up appointments ensure your progress is closely monitored for a smooth recovery.
