Liposuction is a technique to contour the body by the permanent removal of undesirable adipose (fatty) tissue. It is a versatile treatment that targets deposits of exercise-resistant, unwanted fat to sculpt a leaner appearance.
Fluid is first infiltrated into the areas of desired treatment to promote vasoconstriction and prevent blood loss. Small incisions are made to insert the liposuction cannula, a thin tube. The excess fat is then extracted from the treatment area.
While liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure, it complements your healthy diet and exercise routine to address problem areas. Traditionally, treatment areas include:
Liposuction is a safe and effective treatment to address undesirable fat and help you achieve a slimmer figure. Combining liposuction with your healthy lifestyle can help you improve the contours of your body with long-lasting results.

Dr. Davis has a variety of body contouring techniques to choose from, including:
Renuvion J Plasma is an excellent complement for liposuction procedures to tighten loosened skin in the treated area. This non-surgical, non-invasive skin tightening solution allows Dr. Davis to precisely target and treat specific areas of skin. Renuvion creates noticeable effects immediately following treatment, with optimal results in approximately 6-9 months.
The Renuvion J Plasma device uses radiofrequency and helium gas to create plasma energy to contract the skin, which tightens it. Renuvion treatments help to improve overall skin health by stimulating collagen production. It also rejuvenates and tightens skin for an overall sculpted appearance.
When combined with liposuction procedures, revolutionary Renuvion tightens loose skin with:
Ultrasonic liposuction uses ultrasound waves to liquefy fat in the targeted area, which is later evacuated through a cannula. Dr. Davis typically uses ultrasound-assisted liposuction in Beverly Hills to treat particularly stubborn areas, including:

-Gabrielle B. Davis, MD
Dr. Davis has undergone extensive training and education in all aspects of plastic surgeries and body sculpting procedures, such as tummy tuck, mommy makeover, and labiaplasty surgeries. As a female plastic surgeon and busy mother, Dr. Davis understands and relates to the challenges that many of her patients experience while trying to maintain a healthy balance of family life, fitness, and a demanding career.
Patient commitment is key to Dr. Davis’ practice. For Dr. Davis, it is about offering quality information, time, and care to every patient. Her dedication to outstanding patient results and care makes her your best choice for liposuction in Los Angeles.
Dr. Davis’s expertise and dedication to patient results allow her to customize each procedure to match patient preferences. While each procedure will have varying details, general steps you can expect are:
You will be greeted at the clinic by the team and check-in. Dr. Davis will evaluate you, perform surgical markings, and ensure you feel comfortable prior to your liposuction. You will receive conscious sedation before Dr. Davis begins performing liposuction, as determined during your consultation.
The procedure can be performed under conscious sedation. A solution containing an anesthetic and vasoconstrictor is infiltrated into the desired area to minimize pain and blood loss. A liposuction cannula (thin tube) is inserted to remove unwanted fat. The duration of the procedure depends upon the area to be treated and the amount of adipose tissue to be extracted.
Following your liposuction procedure, you will be required to wear a compression garment for several weeks to contour the treated areas and minimize swelling. Swelling may take several months to resolve. Typically, liposuction requires 3-5 days before returning to normal activities. Strenuous exercises should be avoided for 4-6 weeks.
As with any surgical procedure, it is important to follow Dr. Davis’ pre- and post-operative instructions to ensure optimal results from your Los Angeles liposuction procedure.
Generally, ideal candidates for liposuction in Los Angeles are healthy patients who are close to their target weight but still have stubborn fat deposits on their body. As liposuction is a body sculpting treatment rather than an alternative to healthy weight loss, it is not for those who are significantly overweight.

Due to the customizable nature of liposuction procedures, the cost is determined by an individual’s needs. During your consultation, Dr. Davis will provide an estimate for a more accurate liposuction cost.
During your liposuction procedure, you will be given conscious sedation, so you should not feel discomfort. You may be prescribed pain medication to alleviate your discomfort in the days following your liposuction procedure. Be sure to address your pain concerns with Dr. Davis during your consultation.
While you will see some results immediately following your liposuction procedure, you may also experience swelling that disguises your results for 4-6 weeks. You will notice continued improvements to your slimmer figure as your body heals over the next few months.
With your continued healthy lifestyle, you will experience long-lasting results from your Beverly Hills liposuction procedure.
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that physically removes fat cells from targeted body areas, providing more immediate and noticeable results. Non-surgical methods, such as CoolSculpting or laser treatments, use various techniques to reduce fat gradually over time. While non-surgical options can be effective, liposuction is often preferred for more significant fat removal and precise contouring.
Liposuction can be performed on various areas of the body, including the abdomen, thighs, hips, buttocks, arms, neck, and back. Dr. Gabrielle Davis will evaluate your specific needs and goals to determine the most effective treatment areas for your liposuction procedure.
Yes, liposuction is frequently combined with other cosmetic procedures to enhance overall results. Common combinations include tummy tucks, breast rejuvenation procedures, and facelifts. Combining procedures can often provide more comprehensive body contouring and improve overall aesthetics in a single surgery.
Recovery from liposuction varies depending on the extent of the procedure and individual healing rates. Generally, patients can expect some swelling, bruising, and discomfort for the first few days. Most patients can return to work within a week and resume more strenuous activities within four to six weeks. Dr. Davis will provide detailed post-operative care instructions for a smooth recovery.
The fat cells removed during liposuction are permanently eliminated from the body. However, maintaining the results requires a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. Significant weight gain after the procedure can affect the remaining fat cells and potentially alter the results.
The amount of fat that can be safely removed during liposuction varies depending on several factors, including the patient’s overall health and the specific areas being treated. Generally, removing up to five liters (approximately 11 pounds) of fat is considered safe in a single session. Dr. Davis will assess your unique situation to determine the appropriate amount of fat removal for optimal results and safety.
Liposuction is primarily designed to remove excess fat and improve body contours. While it can enhance the overall appearance of treated areas, it is not explicitly intended to address cellulite or significantly tighten loose skin. Dr. Davis may recommend Renuvion skin tightening treatments or cellulite reduction treatments to address these concerns.
As with any surgical procedure, liposuction carries some risks, including infection, bleeding, asymmetry, and changes in skin sensation. Dr. Davis minimizes these risks by using advanced techniques and adhering to strict safety protocols. During your consultation, she will discuss potential risks and complications to ensure you are fully informed.
During your consultation, Dr. Davis will review your medical history, discuss your aesthetic goals, and evaluate the areas you wish to treat. She will explain the liposuction procedure in detail, including what to expect before, during, and after surgery. This is also an opportunity to ask any questions and discuss any concerns. Dr. Davis will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs and goals.
