WHAT IS LIPOSUCTION?

Despite exhaustive efforts at the gym, it may not always be possible to obtain one's ideal physique. Liposuction in Kirkland and Auburn bridges the gap by using a suctioning device to trim excess fat, revealing a more shapely, sculpted silhouette. Of course, liposuction shouldn't be considered a weight-loss method. Still, it is a reliable, effective body contouring tool that can enhance the results of many surgical procedures, such as a tummy tuck, mommy makeover, or thigh lift.

The whole experience has been all positive. Go with Dr. Mark Tseng; it is worth it. He will do right by you!”

— Melinda M., Kirkland, WA

“…Dr. Tseng is an exceptionally skilled surgeon with a keen eye for detail and an artistic touch. His expertise in plastic surgery is evident in the flawless results I have achieved.

The team at the surgery center was equally impressive. They were compassionate and attentive, and they provided exceptional care throughout my entire journey…”

— Rebecca, Auburn, WA Area

“Dr. Tseng is so patient and thorough I won’t trust anybody else when it comes to my aesthetic procedures…with the care Dr. Tseng and the team had for me, I had a very smooth & quick recovery! Because of my darker complexion, I was also terrified of how the scars would look. Needless to say, the incisions and scars were minimal & I am more than ecstatic about my results!”

— T. Dang., Bellevue, WA Area

“I honestly can't speak highly enough of Dr Tseng and his staff. They were friendly and efficient, and Dr Tseng was not only knowledgeable but gentle he took all the time i needed to address all my concerns…I only wish I met Dr Tseng sooner. I love my lips, my jawline, my neck, my jaw structure, how big and natural my eyes look, and most of all, I love how all the lines vanished from my face. Please don't take my word for it; just go see him with no consultation fee, talk with him, and write a list of all your questions and concerns. I promise you will leave very excited and eager to start the work. P.S. If there were a ten-star rating, I would give it.”

HIGH-DEFINITION LIPOSUCTION

Unlike other providers offering only traditional liposuction methods, Dr. Tseng goes the extra mile to address sagging skin with high-definition liposuction for total sculpting.

RENUVION

Renuvion is a minimally invasive procedure that heats and contracts underlying tissue. By delivering a proprietary blend of helium plasma and radiofrequency energy, Renuvion gently contracts tissue with exceptional control and precision to tighten loose skin.

Additional Reading

While Renuvion can be completed as a stand-alone procedure for tightening tissue, Dr. Tseng pairs the treatment with liposuction to sculpt the body with enhanced results. These results include immediate and long-term effects which progressively improve.

BODYTITE

BodyTite uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to tighten skin non-surgically, eliminate fat, and encourage higher natural collagen production levels. The device applies thermal energy to melt fat and tighten skin with a dual internal and external approach.

Additional Reading

An internal device delivers intense RF energy to melt fat and strengthen the fibrous septae, which connect the underlying fascia to the dermis. Simultaneously, an external applicator delivers RF energy to the skin for an increased tightening effect.

FACETITE

FaceTite combines fat reduction and skin tightening techniques to contour the lower face, such as the cheeks, chin, and jawline, for a more toned and youthful appearance. The treatment uses radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) to suction fatty tissues while stimulating collagen production.

Additional Reading

FaceTite is a minimally invasive alternative to more complex cosmetic surgeries like facelifts. A small device with electrodes delivers radiofrequency waves that liquefy fat cells while a separate tube suctions it away. The radiofrequency waves stimulate collagen fibers beneath your skin for a toned, refreshed, and smoother appearance.

What aesthetic issues does Liposuction address?

Liposuction targets stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. It's ideal for refining body contours and enhancing your natural shape. Common aesthetic issues that liposuction can address include:

Love Handles and Muffin Tops: Reducing excess fat around the waist and hips.
Thigh and Leg Bulges: Smoothing the inner and outer thighs for a more streamlined look.
Abdominal Fat: Contouring the midsection to create a flatter, toned appearance.
Back Fat and Bra Bulge: Minimizing excess fat that creates discomfort or a lack of smoothness under clothing.
Upper Arms: Targeting fat deposits that contribute to a less toned appearance.

With liposuction Kirkland plastic surgeon, Dr. Tseng, can sculpt these areas to help you achieve a balanced, proportionate look that complements your natural beauty.

AM I A CANDIDATE FOR LIPOSUCTION?

Liposuction is a fat-loss technique and not a way to shed pounds. Therefore, the best candidates for liposuction in Kirkland and Auburn:

Are at or near their ideal weight
Are healthy, non-smokers free from any significant medical issues that might interfere with their treatment
Have realistic expectations for their outcome based on a private consultation with Dr. Tseng

Some individuals may not be ideal candidates for liposuction. Contraindications include severe heart or lung disease, poor skin elasticity, or individuals with unrealistic expectations about weight loss. It's important to consult with Dr. Tseng to determine whether liposuction is the right solution for you based on your unique health profile.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM THE PROCEDURE?

During liposuction Kirkland Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Tseng, creates small incisions at the target zones. A thin cannula is inserted into the incisions to eliminate unwanted fat, either discarding or saving it for a future fat transfer procedure. Liposuction can be expedited using cutting-edge technologies such as Renuvion, BodyTite, and FaceTite. Liposuction takes 1-3 hours and is performed under general or local anesthesia with IV sedation. After surgery, a bandage is placed to support tissue healing. You may need to wear a compression garment to help minimize swelling and protect your new, improved contours.

WHAT AREAS CAN BE TREATED WITH LIPOSUCTION?

In Kirkland liposuction is a popular treatment because nearly anywhere on the body can be treated. These sites include:

Chest
Bra rolls
Back
Waist
Hips
Stomach
Thighs

Buttocks
Upper arms
Knees
Ankles
Calves
Neck and chin

Liposuction Results

Initial results from liposuction can often be seen within a few weeks, but it may take up to three to six months to see the full effects as swelling subsides and your body heals. Final results typically reveal a slimmer, more contoured silhouette in the targeted areas. Liposuction provides long-lasting results when paired with a healthy lifestyle. Fat cells removed during the procedure do not return, but maintaining a stable weight is key to preserving your results.

Thanks to Dr. Tseng’s technologically advanced approach, recovery times are expedited for Kirkland liposuction patients. Dr. Tseng will ensure you go home with prescription pain medications and a thorough aftercare plan for managing your recovery.

You will attend regular follow-up appointments with Dr. Tseng to ensure your healing remains on track.

How much does Liposuction cost?

The cost of liposuction varies depending on the specific areas being treated, the extent of fat removal, and any combination procedures you may choose. Dr. Tseng tailors every liposuction procedure to the patient's individual needs, so no two treatments are the same. Several factors influence the cost, including surgical fees, anesthesia fees, facility fees, and post-operative care. During your consultation, Dr. Tseng will provide a personalized estimate based on your treatment plan and geographic location.
