What Is Liposuction?
No matter how hard you work to lose weight, you might still see pockets of stubborn fat that prevent you from feeling the confidence you deserve. TOP ReNu Medicine proudly offers a selection of state-of-the-art cosmetic treatments to help you sculpt the body you desire, including laser-assisted liposuction. This minimally invasive alternative to traditional liposuction uses targeted laser energy to destroy unwanted fat from areas all over the body, including the abdomen, thighs, or stomach. Depending on your goals, we can inject the purified fat into areas where you want to add curves, such as the breasts or buttocks. Start your journey toward your ideal physique by scheduling a consultation with the physician-led team at our North Aurora, IL practice, and learn how body contouring with laser-assisted liposuction can help you achieve your aesthetic desires.
How Does Laser-Assisted Liposuction Work?
Liposuction is performed as an outpatient procedure at our office. To start, we'll apply a topical cream to numb the treatment area so you can enjoy your session in comfort. Once you're ready, we'll apply the laser handpiece over the target spot to melt away the underlying fat. As a side benefit, the heat from the laser also penetrates the surrounding tissues, promoting collagen generation to help tighten the skin over time. Once the fat is melted, it will be suctioned out using a thin cannula (a hollow tube). If you're also undergoing a fat transfer treatment, we'll purify the fat and gently inject some of it back into your body to create the curves you want.
What Are the Benefits of Laser-Assisted Liposuction?
Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic treatments on the market, thanks to its effectiveness in destroying unwanted fat and contouring the body. Laser-assisted liposuction at TOP ReNu Medicine takes these effects even further by adding a variety of benefits, including:
- Less invasive than traditional liposuction
- Reduces the chance of scarring or bruising after your procedure
- Offers a shorter recovery process
- Creates a slimmer, more symmetrical figure
- Removes stubborn fat from the stomach, hips, thighs, buttocks, or arms
- Restores confidence and self-esteem

Liposuction FAQ
How much does liposuction cost?
The cost of liposuction varies depending on the technique used and the number of areas being treated. During your consultation, our team will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your goals, preferences, and budget. Once your plan is finalized, we will provide a detailed cost estimate. To make your procedure more accessible, we accept various payment options and can assist you in exploring low-interest medical financing.
What about nonsurgical liposuction?
There are several nonsurgical options available for reducing body fat. While these methods can reduce small pockets of fat, surgical liposuction is often the preferred choice for most patients due to its ability to deliver more consistent and dramatic results. During your consultation, our team will discuss the advantages and limitations of nonsurgical options and help you determine the best approach for your goals.
What about cellulite and loose skin?
Liposuction is specifically designed to remove excess fat and does not address loose skin or cellulite. Our team may recommend combining liposuction with a surgical body lift for skin tightening. Procedures like a tummy tuck, arm lift, or thighplasty are often performed alongside liposuction to achieve optimal results. Be sure to share all your concerns during your consultation so we can create a comprehensive plan tailored to your needs.
Will I have scars?
Liposuction involves small incisions, which will result in some scarring. However, our team focuses on minimizing the scars' appearance by carefully placing them in natural body folds or less visible areas. After the procedure, we provide clear aftercare instructions to promote proper healing and help the scars fade over time.
Will my results last?
To maintain your results, it's important to be prepared to follow a healthy lifestyle after liposuction. While the procedure reduces fat cells in treated areas, weight fluctuations can still occur. We recommend reaching or maintaining a stable, healthy weight prior to surgery and staying within 5 – 10 pounds of your post-surgery weight afterward. Significant changes, such as pregnancy, can impact your results, but additional procedures like a mommy makeover can help refresh your appearance if needed.
