During your consultation in Santa Monica with Dr. Ralph A. Massey, you will have a physical examination of your knees and ankles. Express your concerns and desired results so that a personalized treatment plan can be developed for you.
You will be asked about your medical history, including past surgeries, underlying conditions, and current medications.
Dr. Massey employs a revolutionary technique and will perform the procedure without general anesthesia. Local anesthesia may be administered before the procedure.
A tiny incision will be made. Then, a thin cannula will be inserted into strategic sites in the target areas. The thin tube suctions out the fat cells to reshape and resize your knees and/or ankles for better contours.
Due to the minimally invasive technique, the recovery time is short. You are advised to wear compression stockings for up to two weeks. You may experience bleeding, bruising, and swelling, but these are minimal. You may be able to return to work after a week.
The cost of knee or ankle liposuction in Santa Monica differs from patient to patient due to its highly individualized nature. The overall price reflects the anesthetic fee and the extent of the work performed.
Knees liposuction and ankles liposuction involve the removal of excess fat deposits in these specific areas using a small, thin tube called a cannula. The procedure begins with local anesthesia to numb the targeted region. The surgeon makes small incisions around the knees or ankles, inserts the cannula, and uses a suction device to remove the fat. This helps contour and improve the appearance of the knees and ankles.
Knee and ankle liposuction offers several benefits, including enhanced appearance, improved mobility, and boosted confidence. The legs achieve a smoother, more contoured look by removing excess fat. This can also make movement easier and increase comfort in various activities and clothing choices, leading to greater overall confidence.
