Practice Information
Dr. Su has brought together the latest and most advanced technologies and equipment to provide his patients with the best liposculpture results possible. You can be sure that there is no safer, gentler, faster healing, or smoother results possible using other techniques. At Artistic Liposculpting Center we use “Tumescent technique” local anesthesia, VASER, and SMART LIPO in combination. Our patients typically can drive to our office and back home by themselves, on the same day. Our patients are numbed only in the area to be liposuctioned, therefore they are wide awake and need no general anesthesia. With the use of VASER to gently melt the fat prior to suctioning, there is very little injury to nerves or blood vessels, which is why our “downtime” is 1 day compared to the traditional 1-2 weeks. Our typical patient is truly back to sedentary work by the next day. The cosmetic results that are possible with this system are superior to traditional liposuction due to the melting of the fat (rather than shearing). Also Since our patients are awake, we actually have them stand to evaluate them during the surgery, in order to visualize the smallest areas of unevenness (something that can’t be done during general anesthesia). Finally, the revolutionary SMART LIPO laser adds a whole new dimension to liposuction by giving us the ability to tighten skin that otherwise would remain loose. This is vitally important for many female patients with abdominal stretch marks and looseness following pregnancy. This tightening effect is also very beneficial in areas of loose skin on the neck, and arms. Of course, the most important factor determining good results is the ability of the surgeon performing the surgery. Dr. Su’s ability in sculpting the body is superior due to his artistic eyes and hands, and his uncompromising level of perfection.
