FAQs - Liposuction

How much does liposuction cost?
Liposuction at Leva Medical starts at $7,500 under local (tumescent) anesthesia; general anesthesia costs more due to added resources. The fee covers your board-certified surgeon, private surgical suite, compression garment, and 12-month doctor-guided follow-up. With approved credit, payments can be as low as $250–$415 per month after a typical deposit. Exact quote after exam; individual anatomy varies.
Can I go home the same day?
Yes. Liposuction is outpatient—you’ll relax in recovery for about an hour, clear safety checks, and need a responsible adult to drive you home.
What special after-care will I need?
Wear your compression garment as directed, keep incisions clean, begin gentle walking on day one, and avoid heavy lifting for three weeks.
Do I need lymphatic massages after liposuction?
No. Our micro-cannula tumescent technique and layered compression protocol are designed to minimize fluid build-up, so routine lymphatic massage is not required. We’ll only recommend sessions if your individual healing indicates a benefit.
Are there alternative procedures or add-ons?
Depending on your goals, liposuction can be paired with fat transfer (e.g., BBL), a tummy tuck, or RF/laser skin tightening. Non-surgical body contouring treats mild fat pockets.
Does liposuction hurt?
Expect soreness similar to a tough workout. Most patients rate discomfort 3–4 / 10 and switch to over-the-counter pain relievers after two days.
Will scars be noticeable?
Incisions are just 2–3 mm and hidden in natural skin folds; they typically fade to hairline-thin marks within a few months.
How long do results last?
Removed fat cells don’t grow back, so results are long-lasting. Maintaining a stable weight and active lifestyle preserves your new shape.
