Liposuction Treatment


If you’ve ever experienced stubborn fat that just won’t go away while trying to lose weight, you’ll understand the need for another solution. Liposuction helps by physically removing fat that won’t otherwise come off with diet and exercise.

With liposuction, you can also target specific areas of your body, allowing you to better control your body’s shape. This can improve your body confidence and help you love the way you look. The procedure is simple and safe, with very little risk, and our team makes it a priority to ensure you are comfortable and feel at ease throughout your visit.

What to Expect


The first thing you’ll do is come in for a consultation. At that appointment, we’ll discuss what your goals are for your specific liposuction. We’ll answer any questions you have and go over what the procedure will be like, explain any risks, and discuss your needs and concerns. We’ll also review your medical history. You will then schedule your appointment for the procedure.

During your procedure appointment, we will continuously ensure you are relaxed and feel comfortable. You’ll receive local anesthesia to ensure you don’t feel any discomfort while we make some small incisions and we suction out the stubborn fat cells through a cannula. When the procedure is over, you will be able to go home as soon as you are feeling able. This is the advantage of using local anesthesia and being awake for the procedure.

Recovery from liposuction can take a few days up to a few weeks, but you should start feeling better within a day or two. There can be some swelling for several days to weeks afterward, but it should gradually subside over time. Once all the swelling is gone, you can fully enjoy the new shape of your body!

Frequently Asked Questions About Liposuction


Though liposuction has been one of the most popular plastic surgery techniques for more than three decades now, patients interested in liposuction in Houston typically are unaware of its finer details. Because we at Downsize Liposuction Center value patient education, we have created a list of frequently asked questions about liposuction.

What is liposuction, and how does it work?

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure designed to remove stubborn fat from areas of your body where it’s tough to get rid of, even with diet and exercise. During the procedure, a small tube (called a cannula) is inserted through tiny incisions to suction out the excess fat. It’s a safe and effective way to contour your body and achieve a more defined shape.

Who is a good candidate for liposuction?

Liposuction is ideal for people who are generally healthy and close to their ideal weight but have specific areas of stubborn fat they want to target. It’s not a weight-loss treatment but rather a body-sculpting procedure. If you’re looking to enhance your natural curves and smooth out certain areas, you might be a great candidate!

Is liposuction safe?

Yes, liposuction is considered safe when performed by a qualified and experienced surgeon like Dr. Hennessy. Like any surgery, it carries some risks, but these are minimized with proper preparation and care. We will guide you through the process, discuss any potential risks, and make sure you’re fully informed before moving forward.

How long do the results of liposuction last?

The results of liposuction can last for many years, as long as you maintain a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet and regular exercise. The fat cells that are removed during the procedure don’t come back, but if you gain weight in the future, remaining fat cells may expand. To keep your results looking great, staying active and keeping up with a healthy routine is key!
