Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove localized fat deposits from specific areas of the body, enhancing body contours and proportions. While many people associate liposuction with significant weight loss, it’s important to understand the actual impact on body weight.

Typically, patients may notice an aesthetic difference that feels equivalent to a weight loss of about 5-15 pounds due to the reduction in fat volume. However, the reality reflects a more modest change on the scale—most individuals only lose about 1-2 pounds after the procedure. This discrepancy arises because fat tissue is less dense compared to muscle or bone, meaning that the volume of fat removed won’t translate into a dramatic loss in weight.

In the days following the procedure under local anesthesia, it’s common for patients to experience temporary weight fluctuations. Initial weight gain may occur due to water retention and swelling in the treated areas. This is a normal part of the healing process and usually resolves within the first week as the body gradually expels excess fluids.

To maintain the results achieved through MicroLipo, a commitment to a healthy lifestyle is essential. The fat cells that are removed do not regenerate, however, if a person gains significant weight after the procedure, remaining fat cells can expand, potentially diminishing the aesthetic improvements. Thus, adopting a balanced diet and engaging in regular physical activity are important elements for maintaining the desired body shape and overall health following liposuction.

𝐈 𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐚 𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐫 𝐓𝐨 𝐒𝐞𝐞 𝐈𝐟 𝐈𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐏𝐮𝐭 𝐌𝐲 𝐁𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐱 𝐓𝐨 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐦𝐞

Written by: Rachel Lapidos @rachel_lapidos for Bustle

Since I’m what the youth would call middle-aged in my mid-30s and gravity is starting to really do a number on me, I’ve been looking into more drastic measures beyond my current routine of Botox, filler, and collagen-stimulating creams.

Miria is a new non-ablative treatment (ablative lasers remove the top layer of the skin, while non-ablative lasers do not). This non-invasive laser penetrates deep beneath the skin’s surface to tighten, diminish fine lines, and help reduce acne scars and sun damage — all with only four to seven days of downtime. Unlike traditional ablative resurfacing procedures, it can be performed with topical anesthesia and requires little downtime.

As someone who’s never tried a “serious” laser treatment before — besides Clear & Brilliant, an entry-level laser that doesn’t penetrate as deeply as Miria (and because it doesn’t go as deep, you need multiple sessions for the best results) — I was intrigued. Since I’ve tried so many products and treatments in the name of more youthful skin, I figured it was time to give something more serious a go — something that really gets to the source of collagen production to get it stimulated. Read on for everything you need to know about the Miria laser, including what it’s done for my complexion almost two months later.

Check out this incredible post-op transformation after only five days post-op from tumescent microcannula liposuction on the outer thighs!

Although the end results always take 1-6 months, the outer thighs are smooth and contoured just five days after the procedure. No stitches are needed, just open drainage for optimal healing. Our top priority during follow-up is to ensure all incisions are closed and healing nicely.

In this video, I discuss their Botox SMAS Lift, a beauty trend that has gained significant traction on social media platforms, particularly TikTok. in small doses along the planes of incision during surgical procedures such as brow lifts and facelifts. While neuromodulators like Botox can be used to subtly lift certain areas—like the tip of the nose, the clavicular bands, and the jawline—it doesn’t make sense, either anatomically or anecdotally, to inject Botox in these areas to achieve a lift.

It’s important to approach such viral trends with skepticism and consult with qualified professionals to determine what actually works for achieving personal aesthetic goals.

This patient sought help for minor skin laxity and heaviness in the lower face and submentum.

With just one Ultherapy treatment, the difference is remarkable!

His jawline is sculpted, cheeks lifted, and submentum noticeably tighter.

Ultherapy utilizes ultrasound energy to stimulate collagen production, leading to gradual, non-injectable skin tightening with natural-looking improvements. Results typically emerge around one month after treatment, with continued enhancement in the following weeks.

Ultherapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses focused ultrasound energy to target deep layers of the skin, stimulating collagen production and lifting sagging areas. This non-injectable skin-tightening treatment delivers natural-looking results, addressing early signs of aging in areas like the lower face, neck, jawline, and brow.

Unlike lasers, Ultherapy reaches the skin’s foundational layers to support and lift from within, creating gradual, long-lasting results over 2–3 months. With no downtime, it’s an effective option for refreshing your appearance naturally.

Which Procedure is Right for You?

Let’s discuss body transformations: Tumescent microliposuction with BodyTite versus a tummy tuck. Who is a suitable candidate for each procedure, and which one is more effective for tightening and sculpting your body?

BodyTite is usually done in combination with microlipo, which allows for a more efficient and effective treatment. The entire procedure is done under local anesthesia, and the same incisions, numbing, and anesthesia are used for both methods.

Schedule a consultation by calling (212) 327-3919 to see if BodyTite is right for you.

By delivering precise energy to the dermis, the Miria stimulates collagen production while minimizing trauma to the skin’s surface. This innovative approach makes it particularly effective for patients prone to hyperpigmentation, as it allows for safe, high-energy treatments on all skin types, including darker tones.

The non-ablative nature of the Miria Laser means minimal downtime, making it an excellent choice for those seeking results without disrupting their routine. Over the course of a few months, as collagen rebuilds, patients see smoother, more even skin texture. Click the link in bio to schedule a consultation!

Discover the transformative power of BodyTite! This advanced procedure is targeting the outer thigh area here (and 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 beneath the skin paired with an above-skin head, both delivering bipolar, directional RF energy to the connective tissues, causing them to contract and shrink. Often paired with liposuction, BodyTite leverages the same incisions, numbing, and anesthesia for efficient and effective treatment.

Dr. Molly McBride and I discuss the distinctions between treating cosmetic and visceral fat and the importance of a personalized approach.

Liposuction targets cosmetic fat, specifically those stubborn areas that resist a healthy lifestyle, and it’s crucial to achieve an ideal weight beforehand. This foundation can be supported by medications like GLP-1 agonists, which aid in weight management.

Dr. McBride emphasizes the need for a comprehensive strategy in addressing visceral fat—fat stored in the abdominal cavity linked to health risks such as diabetes and heart disease. Hormonal changes during and after menopause often increase visceral fat, requiring a personalized plan involving lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, and structured exercise, potentially combined with GLP-1 medications.

By integrating both aesthetic and health concerns, individuals can enhance their appearance and well-being. At PFRANKMD, we prioritize individualized care to help patients look their best and feel confident and healthy.
