However, liposculpture focuses on the artistic aspect of sculpting the body, rather than simply removing excess fat without considering the shape. Dr. Stephenson, with his artistic eye, skillfully sculpts your body to reveal its natural contours, creating a truly customized result."},{"faq_question":"Is liposuction a common procedure for men?","faq_answer":"Absolutely! Dr. Stephenson has a large clientele of men who undergo liposuction. Despite rigorous exercise and gym workouts, some stubborn fat deposits just won't budge, even in the fittest men. Whether you have an average build or a few pounds to lose, liposuction can greatly enhance the appearance of various body parts. These improvements are noticeable when undressed, in business suits, workout clothes, or even in swim trunks. Moreover, the discreet incisions from liposuction leave minimal traces of plastic surgery, addressing concerns that men may have about visible signs of aesthetic procedures."},{"faq_question":"What are the most common areas men treat with liposuction?","faq_answer":"Men commonly opt for liposuction in areas such as the submental region (under the chin), chest, and love handles. The stomach is also a popular area for treatment. However, unlike women, liposuction is not typically performed on the upper back, arms, inner thighs, or knees in men."},{"faq_question":"Are liposuction results as good in men as in women?","faq_answer":"Interestingly, liposuction results tend to be even better in men compared to women. There are a couple of reasons for this. First, men generally have thicker skin with greater elasticity, allowing for better skin contraction after the procedure. Secondly, liposuction can sometimes result in slight waviness or irregularities under the skin. However, the thicker skin and more hair follicles in men help obscure these irregularities, creating a smoother appearance compared to women. Additionally, men tend to have more discrete fat deposits with well-defined boundaries, enabling Dr. Stephenson to sculpt the treated areas more precisely, resulting in a natural and attractive outcome."},{"faq_question":"Can liposuction be done on the chest?","faq_answer":"It is simply amazing how much better men can look after liposuction of their chest. Whether overweight or of normal weight, many men carry excess fat in this area. Sometimes the fat is just proportional to their being overweight. Though patients who are overweight ideally should lose weight, it turns out that chest fat is often very difficult to lose with weight loss. Reducing the fat in the chest makes clothes fit so much better and makes men look dramatically thinner so many men choose to do this procedure even when losing the weight is an option. Other chest liposuction patients are men who have lost weight whose chest remains prominent. Finally, there are men who have gynecomastia \u2013 abnormal breast development. When the tissue is hard, it has to be removed by Dr. Stephenson.The fat in a man's chest is often very fibrous and tenacious, making it resistant to ideal volume removal and sculpturing by standard liposuction techniques. For these reasons Dr. Stephenson frequently uses ultrasonic liposuction or power assisted liposuction to help him sculpt the most ideally shaped chest."},{"faq_question":"When is liposuction ideal for a man's stomach?","faq_answer":"Some men have extra fat on the inside around the organs, and some men have extra fat just under the skin. Liposuction only works for the fat that is under the skin. Men that can sit down and pinch a roll of skin and fat probably have fat under the skin (subcutaneous fat), and this is well treated by liposuction. There are some men with very firm bellies who cannot really pinch a lot of skin and fat either when sitting or standing. These men have fat deep that is below the muscle around their organs. The medical term for this is \u201cvisceral fat\u201d and the popular term is a \u201cbeer belly\u201d . Surgery cannot do anything for them at present. Their only option is weight loss. For the countless men who have too much subcutaneous fat, liposuction can work wonders. It works not just to make men thinner, but it is indeed very effective at sculpting a nice contour. Liposuction can help emphasize a six-pack if the muscle has already been developed through exercise and the results can be very beautiful."},{"faq_question":"Does liposuction of the love handles work well in men?","faq_answer":"Liposuction of the love handles is highly effective for men. Despite having well-defined six-packs, many guys struggle to eliminate stubborn love handles. Fortunately, the thick skin in this area allows for excellent contraction, resulting in amazing outcomes. It's important to note that a touch of fullness in the love handle area is actually desirable for the ideal male physique. Just take a look at iconic sculptures like Michaelangelo's David. Complete removal of love handles can create an overly hourglass figure, which is both unattractive and feminizing. Dr. Stephenson's approach to liposuction goes beyond making you thinner; it focuses on enhancing your natural contours for a more sculpted appearance."},{"faq_question":"If you do liposuction in one area, does fat come back in another area?","faq_answer":"Fat storage occurs when excess food is consumed and not burned off. If your weight remains relatively stable, this is not a concern. However, if you were to gain weight, the treated areas would have fewer fat cells, making it appear as though fat accumulates in untreated areas. It's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle to ensure long-lasting results from liposuction."},{"faq_question":"What form of anesthesia will be used for my procedure?","faq_answer":"Dr. Stephenson prefers maximum comfort his clients and recommends general anesthesia. "},{"faq_question":"How soon can I go to work?","faq_answer":"When you feel ready to do your job is highly individualized. So long as your work doesn\u2019t involve straining and heavy lifting, you can expect to be back to work after no later than 1 week. Some clients go back even sooner, and many work from home 3-4 days after surgery."},{"faq_question":"When can I drive?","faq_answer":"You can drive when you are off all narcotic pain medication and feel totally unrestricted by your discomfort such that you could make any movement you might need to safely drive your car. The timeline is different for each client. Dr. Stephenson typically recommends 2 weeks after surgery."},{"faq_question":"When can I resume exercise after liposuction?","faq_answer":"Dr. Stephenson suggests that you wait a minimum of 4 weeks to be sure that everything is healed. There is always a chance of causing bleeding and\/or developing fluid beneath the skin (seroma) if you start much before that time. When you start, listen to your body. You will be a little out of condition and a bit sore. But you will get back to where you were before surgery very quickly."},{"faq_question":"Does not being able to exercise then exclude sex?","faq_answer":"Sex can be resumed as you feel comfortable. Most often patients hit their level of comfort in 14 days. Again, respect the fact that you have undergone surgery and try to avoid the manipulation of the incisions."},{"faq_question":"When can I shower\/take a bath?","faq_answer":"You can take a shower two days after your surgery. You should wait about three weeks before taking a bath so that your incisions are somewhat healed."},{"faq_question":"How long does the swelling last?","faq_answer":"Swelling increases after surgery, usually peaking about 5-6 days after surgery. After that, the swelling will subside, rapidly at first, and then gradually. After one month, you\u2019ll think the swelling is gone, but it will still go down more at three months, and even more at six months and even a year, though at that point changes are subtle."},{"faq_question":"Will I have a special garment to wear after surgery? How long will I have to wear it?","faq_answer":"Dr. Stephenson will place you in a vest\/shorts combination at the completion of your surgery. Your compression vest\/shorts combo will help minimize swelling and give you support. Clients will wear this for six weeks."},{"faq_question":"How painful is the recovery from liposuction surgery?","faq_answer":"Most clients describe the recovery period as moderately painful. Clients may experience pressure, tightness and firm areas, but the pain is typically not severe. Pain gradually builds up, so if you start feeling uncomfortable, taking a pain medication as prescribed by Dr. Stephenson will help alleviate the discomfort."},{"faq_question":"Will I need lymphatic massages?","faq_answer":"At ESJ Aesthetics, we understand that the use of lymphatic massages after a tummy tuck can be a topic of debate. However, Dr. Stephenson firmly believes in the benefits of these treatments for our clients. Lymphatic massages have been proven to reduce prolonged swelling, soften the skin of the treated area, and alleviates soreness. We typically recommend starting these treatments around 10 days after your procedure to ensure optimal results. Rest assured, Dr. Stephenson has established strong relationships with certified lymphatic massage therapists who are dedicated to meeting your specific needs. We are committed to providing you with the best care possible, and incorporating these beneficial treatments into your recovery journey."},{"faq_question":"Do I need to go to an aftercare facility after my liposuction surgery?","faq_answer":"Clients are well enough to go home after liposuction and do not need to go to an aftercare facility. However, some clients may choose to go to an aftercare facility if they do not have someone to watch over them the night of surgery or if their home environment is not conducive to relaxation and recovery. Dr. Stephenson has a vetted list of aftercare facilities for his clients."},{"faq_question":"What will my post-operative appointment schedule?","faq_answer":"Dr. Stephenson wants to see everyone 48 hours after surgery to be sure that everything is okay. We offer clients frequent visits thereafter, usually at one week, one month, six months, one year, and yearly thereafter. But some clients will come more frequently, some less frequently. We do not charge for these visits. Some people have little questions they want answered, and other people feel fine on their own. He is always available for a client who wants to come in."},{"faq_question":"Will I get a phone call from the doctor the night of my surgery?","faq_answer":"Dr. Stephenson will personally call you on the night of your surgery. He will also provide you with his personal cell phone and email address so that you can reach him directly if needed."},{"faq_question":"What should you keep an eye on after surgery?","faq_answer":"If you experience a persistent temperature above 101.5, sudden and painful swelling, it could indicate bleeding. It is crucial to inform Dr. Stephenson right away to receive prompt medical attention. It is essential to be vigilant for any signs of a blood clot. If you experience calf pain, swelling in one leg, or shortness of breath, these are serious symptoms that require immediate medical attention. In the case of shortness of breath, call 911 without delay. Your safety is our utmost priority, and Dr. Stephenson and his staff will provide you with detailed pre and post-operative instructions to guide you through your recovery process."},{"faq_question":"Concerned about scars?","faq_answer":"It\u2019s fascinating how healing can vary from person to person, even with the same surgical techniques. While Dr. Stephenson employs the best methods to minimize scarring, it\u2019s crucial to acknowledge that some individuals may have more prominent healed incisions or hypertrophic scar (wide healed incisions with or without pigment). That\u2019s why Dr. Stephenson focuses on concealing the healed incisions within the lines of preferred underwear, ensuring they are as discreet as possible."},{"faq_question":"What should I do to prevent scars?","faq_answer":"The quality of your healed surgical incision is mostly determined by genetics and your body\u2019s response to surgery. It is not clear how much applying products to scars will influence their final appearance, but most patients want to do something. Some products that have received positive patient feedback include Scar Guard (a liquid containing steroid, Vitamin E, and silicone), silicone gel strips (such as Neosporin scar strips), and silicone ointment (such as Scar Fade). You can obtain these products from our office and start using them as directed by Dr. Stephenson."},{"faq_question":"Is there bruising and if so, how long does it last?","faq_answer":"Usually there is a little bit of bruising on and around the breast, but it is typically very mild and is all gone by ten days to two weeks. This duration of bruising can be shortened by using Arnica and Bromelain tablets starting 3 days prior to surgery and continuing for 5-7 days after surgery."},{"faq_question":"Is there swelling and if so, how long does it last?","faq_answer":"Swelling increases after surgery, usually peaking about 5-6 days after surgery. After that, the swelling will subside, rapidly at first, and then gradually. After one month, you\u2019ll think the swelling is gone, but it will still go down more at three months, and even more at six months and even a year, though at that point changes are subtle."},{"faq_question":"When do the stitches need to be removed?","faq_answer":"For areas of liposuction, the stitches will be removed by Dr. Stephenson\u2019s team in 7-10 days after surgery"},{"faq_question":"What do I have to do to care for the incisions?","faq_answer":"\u2013 It is okay to shower 48 hours after surgery and get the incision wet.\r\n\u2013 Gently shower with a soapy washcloth to remove any small crusting.\r\n\u2013 After showering, blot the incisions dry and reapply fresh gauze.\r\n\u2013 Apply a rich moisturizer after your shower, but avoid putting it over the incisions."},{"faq_question":"When can I travel by airplane?","faq_answer":"Long air travel (greater than 1 and \u00bd hours) should be avoided during the first 4 weeks after surgery to reduce the rare possible of a blood forming in the legs during air travel. Other issues involved have to do with the difficulty of getting through airports these days, and whether you are going somewhere where there is a plastic surgeon to look after you or should you have questions or problems or just need to be looked at by an experienced doctor. These issues are usually very individualized, and you should discuss them with Dr. Stephenson."}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esjaesthetics.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service\/457"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esjaesthetics.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esjaesthetics.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/service"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esjaesthetics.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/650"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esjaesthetics.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=457"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"service-cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esjaesthetics.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/service-cat?post=457"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
