Arrival for Surgery

When you arrive, you (and a guest if preferred) will be shown to your private pre-op room, which you will return to after surgery for your post-op care to maximize your comfort and privacy.

During the Procedure

Natural light in the operating suite provides a view of the sky as you enter and makes the space more welcoming while still providing the highest level of privacy.

During the surgery, Dr. Lefkowitz will remove excess fat using small cannulas (tubes) that are inserted through tiny incisions. This allows him to slim and reshape problem areas in the body. A variety of areas can be treated with liposuction with beautiful results. This includes: the submental (under the chin) region, upper arms, chest/braline, abdomen, flanks, back, and thighs.

Recovery

Most clients experience only mild discomfort after liposuction in Columbia, SC. Prescription medications will help ease the healing process.

Recovery is variable based on the area(s) treated but in general:

• 5 - 7 Days Post-Procedure

  Dr. Lefkowitz recommends one week for your early recovery. However, you may choose to return to work or school after 3-5 days depending on the areas treated and the extent of your surgery.

• 10 - 14 Days Post-Procedure

  Some swelling and bruising is expected and normal after a liposuction procedure. Over time (10-14 days), much of this dissipates. A supportive compression garment will be worn starting 48 hours after surgery to help for comfort and contour.

• 2 - 3 Weeks Post-Procedure

  Gradual increase in exercise and strenuous activity.

• 3 - 6 Months Post-Procedure

  Full aesthetic results achieved.
