Liposuction
Overview
Liposuction removes excess fat from stubborn areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise. At Kapital Surgery Center in Miami, our surgeons sculpt and refine your body using advanced liposuction techniques like tumescent, power-assisted, or ultrasound-assisted liposuction. This versatile procedure is ideal for creating smoother, more proportional contours in areas like the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back, and chin.
How It Works
A numbing solution is injected into the targeted area to reduce bleeding and discomfort. Then, a cannula (a thin tube) is used to suction out unwanted fat. The procedure can be performed alone or combined with other surgeries such as BBL, tummy tuck, or body lift.
Ideal Candidates
- Healthy individuals close to their ideal weight
- Areas of localized fat that are resistant to exercise
- Good skin elasticity
- Non-smokers with realistic goals
Benefits

Recovery
Initial recovery takes 5–10 days. You may wear a compression garment for 4–6 weeks to reduce swelling and help shape your results. Bruising and soreness are normal and subside within a few weeks. Most patients return to full activity in 3–4 weeks.
