Liposuction is one of the most popular solutions for fat reduction in the world. Performed by plastic surgeons and dermatologists, liposuction is more of a cosmetic procedure. Utilized to shave off pesky fat that doesn’t respond to diet and exercise, liposuction works great for those who are slightly overweight.
At the Biotech Cosmetic Surgery & Medical Spa, we utilize the safest and most advanced methods of liposuction to ensure the best experience for our Miami, North Miami, Aventura, Hallandale Beach and Sunny Isles patients.
What You Need to Know About Liposuction
Liposuction is a fairly common procedure with over 400,000 liposuction procedures are performed in the U.S. each year. This is not a weight loss operation and is not a solution for obesity. Liposuction works best for removing smaller amounts of stubborn fat that does not react to proper diet and exercise.
We recommended that patients be within 30% of their ideal body weight to receive liposuction.
The Liposuction Procedure
Liposuction is a safe procedure, that rarely results in negative effects for patients.
Liposuction starts with application of a numbing agent as well as a medication to help limit swelling and bruising. The doctor will then insert a thin cannula, into the treatment area. The liposuction procedure takes place through it. The doctors work to break up the fat cells with the cannula, through ultrasound or with lasers that work to liquify the fat cells. Once the cells have been broken up, a vacuum will suck the fat from the body through the cannula.
We utilize the Microaire PAL power-assisted liposuction system to ensure the greatest possible results. This system helps us perform your procedure with utmost precision and adds additional comfort, granting the best possible results of a sculpted, slimmer you.

Skin Tightening with J-Plasma
If you have undergone a liposuctions procedure, then you have likely experienced sagging skin post procedure that is a result of stretched skin from excess fat. Most of the time a tummy tuck is prescribed to tighten the skin by surgically removing a portion of it, leaving an unsightly scar behind.
Tummy tuck procedures can be invasive and stressful, as it is a very involved surgery that requires the physical removal of large portions of the skin. Rather than deal with another surgery after you have already undergone liposuctions, you can now opt for a much safer and comfortable treatment option.
This skin tightening treatment is called J-Plasma. J-Plasma™ is a minimally invasive procedure that uses subdermal cold plasma energy to instantly tighten and rejuvenate anywhere on the face and body.
There are no incisions required and the procedure provides results that are comparable to any tummy tuck.
