Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
How long does it take to see the final liposuction result?
Final Results for Liposuction (for Tumescent Liposuction, Smart Lipo, Laser Assisted Liposuction)
Feb 19, 2019
In general, it takes 6 to 12 weeks after liposuction to see the final result. Right after liposuction, you see an immediate reduction of fat but you will experience swelling/bruising over the next few days lasting 2 to 3 weeks. You may also experience firmness, nodules, minor contour irregularities over the next several weeks. I usually recommend compression garment for a minimal of 6 weeks, weekly massage therapy to the treated area for up to 3 months. Make sure you follow up with your...
What qualifies someone for local and when does sedation become appropriate?
Local or General Anethesia for Lipo (for Tumescent Liposuction, Smart Lipo, Laser Assisted Liposuction)
Feb 18, 2019
The type of anesthesia used in liposuction depends on many factors. First you have physician preference, who may be more comfortable with one type of anesthesia over others. Then you have patient preference. I have seen patients who only wishes for local anesthesia and other patients who demand general anesthesia for the same procedures. Finally, the anticipated amount of fat removal, number of areas treated and patient general health conditions also affect the type of anesthesia choice. The...
How Much Skin Tightening from Smart Lipo?
Skin Tightening from SmartLipo (for Tumescent Liposuction, Smart Lipo, Laser Assisted Liposuction)
Feb 14, 2019
Smartlipo is laser-assisted lipolysis which can induce modest amount of skin tightening in addition to the fat removal. The amount of skin tightening varies person to person. In general, I see about 15 to 20% improvement with skin tightening. On occasion, I see more skin tightening up to 25 to 30%. It’s best to have a qualified plastic surgeon assess your abdomen to determine the best treatment option.

Sincerely,
Stewart Wang, MD FACSBoard Certified Plastic SurgeonMedical Director, Wang P...

How damaging is liposuction to surrounding tissues? Would it damage my core muscles?
Liposuction on Surronding Tissue & Muscle (for Tumescent Liposuction, Smart Lipo, Laser Assisted Liposuction)
Jan 31, 2019
Liposuction involves removal of fat cells via a cannula and aspiration. It works on a layer that’s superficial to the core muscle. If properly performed it should not cause any damage to the core muscles. You should have no future issue with pregnancy after liposuction. Make sure you choose a board certified plastic surgeon to perform this procedure.Sincerely,
Stewart Wang, MD FACSBoard Certified Plastic SurgeonMedical Director, Wang Plastic Surgery & Med Spa
Tumescent Liposuction Vs. Smart Lipo
Lipo vs. Smart Lipo (for Tumescent Liposuction, Smart Lipo, Laser Assisted Liposuction)
Jan 15, 2019
Both Tumescent Liposuction and Smart Lipo (Laser assisted liposuction) can be effective way to contour and shape your body by removing excessive or bulging fat. Typically Smart Lipo is performed under local anesthesia and tend to have less pain, swelling or bruising post procedure. Tumescent Liposuction performed under general anesthesia is a bit faster and allow for greater amount of fat or greater number of areas treated under single session. The result is more dependent on the skill of...
Can I have MiraDry done after transaxillary submuscular breast augmentation?
MiraDry After Breast Augmentation (for Hyperhydrosis, Excessive Sweating & Odor)
Dec 20, 2018
You can have miraDry done after your axillary scar has healed. I will usually wait 6 months before doing miraDry to allow your scar to heal completely.Sincerely,
Stewart Wang, MD FACSBoard Certified Plastic SurgeonMedical Director, Wang Plastic Surgery & Med Spa
Can I do MiraDry if I have razor bumps from shaving before the procedure?
Razor Bumps before MiraDry (for Hyperhydrosis, Excessive Sweating & Odor)
Dec 11, 2018
In general, as long as skin is intact and there are no open sore or cuts then it’s safe to proceed with your miraDry procedure. Sincerely,
Stewart Wang, MD FACSBoard Certified Plastic SurgeonMedical Director, Wang Plastic Surgery & Med Spa
How long should each session take and is it a must to have 2 sessions?
1 or 2 Sessions for MiraDry (for Hyperhydrosis, Excessive Sweating & Odor)
Dec 11, 2018
It’s not a requirement to have 2 sessions of MiraDry. The average improvement after single treatment of miraDry is around 70%. Majority of our patients are satisfied with single session. About 15 to 20% of our patients will elect to have a 2nd session even with significant improvement. We like to use maximal treatment level each time in order to achieve maximal result. The treatment takes about 25 to 30 minutes for each axilla so total treatment time is about one hour for both side. The n...

What happens to the destroyed sweat glands after miraDry?
Sweat Glands for Miradry (for Hyperhydrosis, Excessive Sweating & Odor)
Dec 3, 2018
The sweat glands that were destroyed by miraDry treatment either stay dormant or slowly shrink over time. Even when the treated glands are present, they are not nearly as active as indicated by the iodine-starch test. While the miraDry is highly effective, it’s does not eliminate 100% of the sweat glands. Our most common result is about 70% improvement after single treatment.Sincerely,
