A double chin isnโt always about weight. For many patients, itโs simply genetics or something that develops over time.
With a modified VASER micro-liposuction technique, excess fat under the chin can be removed through a tiny incision. Sometimes removing just a tablespoon of fat is enough to restore a sharper jawline.
The procedure takes about 30โ60 minutes under local anesthesia, with minimal downtime and a quick recovery.

A simple and highly effective solution for genetic or acquired fullness under the chin, using a modified micro-liposuction technique with VASER technology. Removing as little as a tablespoon of fat through a tiny incision can create a dramatic improvement in contour and definition.
The procedure typically takes 30โ60 minutes under local anesthesia, with minimal downtime and a quick recovery, making it an ideal option for patients looking to refine the jawline and restore a more sculpted profile.
While CoolSculpting may seem like a simple solution for fat reduction, in rare cases it can lead to Paradoxical Adipose Hyperplasia (PAH), an unexpected response where fat tissue becomes enlarged, firm, and difficult to treat.
The good news is there is a definitive, effective solution.
Micro Liposuction combined with ultrasonic VASER technology is the gold standard for correcting PAH. This advanced approach allows for precise targeting and removal of dense, fibrous fat while preserving surrounding tissues and supporting a smoother, more predictable outcome.
Using tumescent, power assisted liposuction with ultrasonic energy, we are able to safely sculpt areas affected by PAH, including challenging regions like the outer thighs, with minimal downtime and a high level of control.
When it comes to PAH correction, predictability, safety, and surgical expertise matter. Choosing the right technique makes all the difference.
If you have experienced PAH or are interested in Micro Liposuction, call (212) 327-2919 to schedule a consultation and see if you are a candidate for tumescent liposuction.

Choosing the Right Skin Tightening Procedure
When it comes to sculpting your midsection, the decision between BodyTite and a tummy tuck depends on your unique goals, skin quality, and anatomy.
BodyTite, a minimally invasive procedure using radiofrequency energy, is ideal for patients who have experienced a moderate amount of weight loss and still have good skin elasticity. When combined with tumescent microcannula liposuction, BodyTite can effectively reduce fat and tighten skinโall performed under local anesthesia using the same small incisions for both techniques.
On the other hand, a tummy tuck is a more comprehensive surgical procedure. Itโs best suited for patients with significant excess skin, stretched or separated abdominal muscles (diastasis recti), and more dramatic body contouring needs. This surgery removes excess fat and skin while also tightening the underlying muscles for a flatter, firmer result.
Generally, younger patients with localized fat deposits and minimal skin laxity are better candidates for BodyTite, while those with more advanced concerns benefit from the transformative results of a tummy tuck.
Still unsure which option is right for you?

The THUTT area, a term to describe the anatomical connection between the outer thigh and the buttock, can often present aesthetic challenges for those seeking a more contoured figure. Many patients approach cosmetic procedures with a desire for outer thigh liposuction, yet they frequently overlook a critical factor: the noticeable bulge in this region is often a result of volume loss in the lateral buttock area.
To address this issue comprehensively, we perform micro-liposuction of the outer thigh combined with targeted fat transfer. During the procedure, we carefully extract small amounts of fat from the outer thigh using minimally invasive liposuction methods. This harvested fat is then processed to ensure optimal quality and viability before it is meticulously injected into the lateral buttock area.
This dual approach not only re-flattens the contour of the thigh but also restores lost volume in the buttock, resulting in a smoother, more harmonious transition between the two areas. The outcome is a more youthful and aesthetically pleasing appearance, enhancing the overall body silhouette while maintaining natural proportions.

When considering laser treatments for scars following various surgical procedures like facelifts, liposuction, and breast augmentation, itโs important to understand the timing for initiation. Patients can start laser treatments as early as 2 to 6 weeks post-surgery.
This timing is contingent upon several factors, including the complete closure of the surgical wound and the removal of stitches. Once these conditions are met, laser therapy can be beneficial in minimizing the appearance of scars and enhancing the overall healing process. Early intervention with laser treatments can promote skin regeneration and reduce the risk of abnormal scarring, leading to improved aesthetic outcomes. Itโs essential to consult with a qualified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to tailor a post-operative care plan that includes the appropriate timing and type of laser treatment based on individual healing and skin types.
Schedule a consultation to determine if your scars can be improved with scar therapy treatments.
(๐๐ข๐๐ซ๐จ๐๐ข๐ฉ๐จ): Minimally Invasive Solution for Fat Removal with Local Anesthesia
Tumescent micro-cannular liposculption (MicroLipo) is a safe, effective, and predictable option for excess fat removal when diet and exercise have been exhausted. This body contouring procedure is minimally-invasive and performed through small slit incisions that donโt require any stitching.
This procedure is performed entirely under local anesthesia and requires very little downtime. Recovery is only 24-48 hours with the ability to start exercising one week after the treatment.

Here, we are using the BodyTite procedure to target the outer thigh area (and it can also be used on other areas like the abdomen, arms, and bra fat) to tighten skin, remove fat, and enhance skin texture, all under local anesthesia. BodyTite utilizes a dual approach: a thin probe placed beneath the skin paired with an above-skin handpiece, both delivering bipolar, directional RF energy to the connective tissues, causing them to contract and shrink. Often paired with liposuction, BodyTite uses the same incisions, numbing solution, and anesthesia for an efficient, effective treatment.

This treatment targets the love handlesโa common area of concern for men looking to refine their waistline. It begins with the application of tumescent anesthesia, a specialized solution that numbs the area and minimizes bleeding.
We then use ultrasound-assisted liposuction to enhance precision and improve results. The ultrasound energy breaks down fibrous tissue within the fat layer, allowing for smoother removal while tightening the surrounding skin. This technique reduces trauma to nearby tissues, leading to a faster, more comfortable recovery.
The goal is to sculpt a leaner, more defined silhouette by removing stubborn fat thatโs resistant to diet and exercise. With proper maintenance, patients can expect natural-looking, long-lasting results.

โจThis is one week after body contouring with microlipo to the outer thighs. To achieve these results, we combined: BodyTite for precise contouring, Morpheus8 surgical microneedling to enhance skin texture, and VASER ultrasound technology to selectively target and melt stubborn fat. After just 7 days, the outer thighs appear significantly smoother and more contoured, with minimal bruising and discomfort, which is a notable advantage.
Stitches are not needed following the mircolipo procedure and a compression garment is provided for the patient to wear along with bandages to help absorb any excess fluid, effectively minimizing recovery time and enhancing overall outcomes.
MicroLiposuction, a central aspect of this procedure, involves infusing a specially formulated fluid that not only swells the targeted area, but also acts as an anesthetic. This significantly improves the efficiency of fat removal and enhances patient comfort throughout the process.
Overall results are encouraging, and improvements will continue to enhance over 1 to 6 months following treatment. However, the early improvements highlight the remarkable advantages gained from utilizing these advanced techniques and state-of-the-art technology.

Tumescent microcannula liposuction is a safe, precise way to remove stubborn fat and refine body contours with less trauma and downtime than traditional liposuction. Performed under local anesthesia using small cannulas, it delivers controlled, natural-looking results.
We break down how modern liposuction has evolved, the role of fat grafting in restoring balance, and how MicroLipo can be paired with medical weight loss therapies to optimize and maintain results.
This approach is ideal for areas resistant to diet and exercise, including the arms, chin, flanks, and abdomen, and fits seamlessly into a personalized plan for non-surgical and surgical aesthetic optimization.

MicroLipo is about precision. It allows us to selectively remove stubborn fat while preserving natural contours and proportions of the arm.
In these cases, the results are not about aggressive fat removal or chasing an overly thin look. The goal is balance and refinement.
By combining MicroLipo with surgical microneedling, we are able to address both shape and skin quality. Fat is carefully sculpted, while microneedling stimulates collagen to improve texture, firmness, and overall smoothness.
The outcome is arms that look more defined, smoother, and naturally proportionate to the body.

Tumescent Microliposuction
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. For all of the Tumescent Microliposuction procedures, we recommend you wear a garment 24/7 for one week and refrain from exercise while wearing the garment.
During our consultation, your provider will discuss with you whether liposuction will help you achieve your desired fat-reduction goals. Each patient is considered unique, and whether or not you are a good candidate will be dependent on your goals, the area you want treated, and your current circumstance.
Tumescent liposuction involves injecting a large volume of tumescent solution into the treatment area before the fat is removed. Laser liposuction, also known as laser-assisted liposuction or laser lipolysis, involves the use of a laser to melt body fat.
Tumescent liposuction is considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced cosmetic surgeon. Although minimally invasive, there are risks and potential complications that should be discussed with your surgeon before the procedure.
The length of a tumescent liposuction procedure varies depending on the size of the treatment area and the amount of fat being removed. In general, tumescent liposuction can take between 1-2 hours.
The cost of tumescent liposuction can vary depending on the size of the treatment area and the amount of fat being removed. It is important to discuss the cost of the procedure with your cosmetic surgeon and to make sure that you understand all of the fees involved.
The recovery time for tumescent liposuction varies depending on the extent of the procedure and the individual patient. In general, patients can expect to return to normal activities 1 week after the procedure, although some swelling and bruising may persist for a few weeks. It is important to follow your surgeonโs instructions for post-operative care to ensure a smooth and successful recovery.
Following the tumescent liposuction procedure, many people want to start exercising right away. While you may feel up to it, itโs recommended that you avoid any strenuous activity, including exercise, for at least one week after liposuction to allow your body time to heal and reduce the risk of post-op complications. Like with any surgery, the recovery period is critical in ensuring great results.
Even though PFRANKMD MicroLipo is performed under local anesthesia and most patients return home the same day, we are happy to provide complimentary transportation if desired. Our priority is ensuring that you feel supported, comfortable, and safe before, during, and after your sculpting procedure.
