What Is Liposuction?
No matter how much effort you put in at the gym, you might still struggle with pockets of stubborn fat that hold back your confidence. Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery offers the most advanced techniques to effectively eliminate fat from different areas of the body. Liposuction is a body reshaping procedure that reduces fat from the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks to produce a more defined appearance. It can also be combined with other body contouring solutions (like tummy tuck surgery) to create a more complete transformation. Schedule a consultation at our Chicago, IL plastic surgery practice to discover the results you can achieve with liposuction.
How Is Liposuction Performed?
Liposuction is performed as an outpatient procedure with the patient under general anesthesia. To start, your surgeon will make a very small incision near the treatment area. A cannula (a hollow medical tube) will be inserted and used to break up fatty tissue before vacuuming it out. After removing the desired amount of fat, we'll close up the incision and move you to a recovery room for monitoring. Depending on the amount of fat to be removed and the number of areas we're treating, your liposuction procedure could take 1 – 3 hours. Before releasing you, we'll discuss aftercare instructions and arrange a follow-up appointment at our Chicago, IL office to make sure the healing process is going smoothly.
What Are the Benefits of Liposuction?
When diet and exercise aren't enough to get the results you want, liposuction at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery offers a quick and comfortable way to remove excess fat and achieve your desired figure. Some of the benefits of this procedure include:
- Minimal scarring
- Targets health issues, including gynecomastia and lipodystrophy syndrome, among others
- Melts away stubborn fat from problem areas
- Improves self-image and confidence
- May improve health by lowering body mass index (BMI)

Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery Reviews
Over the past two years I have worked with Dr. Schierle to achieve my postpartum 'glow up' and couldn't be more thrilled with my results. Both my chin lipo and upper bleph have left me feeling refreshed, confident and more youthful. I had both procedures in office under local anesthesia and had no issues. Not only does Dr. Schierle care about the physical result of his work but he also cares deeply about how the patient feels, which I experienced first hand during my 3 and 4 month post op appointments. I highly recommend Dr. Schierle for your plastic surgery needs- he's exceptional!

Dr. Moradian is one of a kind. Not only is he a talented surgeon but he has a great bedside manner. I am very pleased with the outcome of my procedure. I recommend Dr. Moradian very highly!
Dr. Moradian is very welcoming, professional, and talented and provides excellent care. I recommend him to anybody considering cosmetic surgery.
I love how I look and feel—that is obvious, that is the stuff that shows to the world. But what Dr. Schierle and Monika Cieszynski did for me was really so much more than that. I have struggled with loose skin and a large belly my whole life. What they REALLY did for me was free up space in my mind. I cannot put accurately into words what this does to a person. I am free. I have so much gratitude and appreciation. My body is strong and looks great—but my mind—what it did for my mind is quite profound.
