Small Volume Liposuction

Small Volume Liposuction is a great choice for our patients because this procedure can eliminate areas of fat from almost anywhere on the body. It subtly shapes your hips, belly, or beneath your chin for gorgeous results. Dr. Chung’s patients usually enjoy a quick and comfortable recovery with minimal discomfort and downtime.

Small Volume Liposuction Procedure

The procedure typically takes only about an hour, with additional time needed for larger areas or larger volume fat removal. If you are considering Liposuction it’s worth considering Small Volume Liposuction.

Small Volume Liposuction Recovery

Patients need only local anesthesia in the treatment area, avoiding the risks of general anesthesia.

We make it a priority to support you during your recovery. Dr. Chung believes in ensuring that her patients feel informed and empowered about their after care.

After Small Volume Liposuction, most patients will be able to return to work in a couple days. It’s normal to feel tender and sore, however Dr. Chung will prescribe pain medication to manage any discomfort.

It’s important to note that with any liposuction, the final results of your procedure may not be fully evident until six months later. Though most patients usually note a dramatic change as soon as the swelling subsides. To learn more about Small Volume Liposuction, contact our office today.

Dr. Chung's Philosophy

Plastic surgery is a very personal decision and can get overwhelming at times to sort through options that are currently available. As a fellowship trained aesthetic plastic surgeon, I have the knowledge and experience to guide patients during this process. My goal is to listen, understand your objectives, and advise you in selecting a procedure that is right for you. As a woman surgeon, I am compassionate, warm, and honest. You will leave educated and confident that the end result will be beautiful and natural, not overdone.

I truly believe that to be a successful aesthetic plastic surgeon, one has to become the patient’s lifelong aesthetic provider. From non-invasive procedures to surgery, our journey begins together.
