New York City’s Tumescent Liposuction Surgeon
One of the main motivators for getting tumescent liposuction is the want for a more contoured body shape. Individuals who are unhappy with stubborn pockets of fat that don’t respond to diet and exercise may turn to tumescent liposuction as a solution. Additionally, tumescent liposuction can help reduce the appearance of cellulite and improve self-confidence.
With tumescent liposuction being a popular cosmetic procedure in New York City and across the country, being in the hands of a highly qualified board-certified cosmetic surgeon, such as Dr. Frank, can significantly improve the outcome of your procedure.


What Are The Benefits of Tumescent Liposuction?
2. Reduce unwanted body fat: Tumescent liposuction is effective at reducing body fat that won’t go away from diet & exercise.
3. Improved self-confidence: Many of Dr. Frank’s patients report feeling more confident about their everyday appearance.
Are You a Good Candidate for Tumescent Liposuction?
When evaluating a potential candidate for tumescent liposuction, the following factors are considered help determine if you are a good fit, including:
2. Excess fat: The procedure is intended for patients with a specific area of the body they want to contour or reshape that is resistant to diet and exercise. Tumescent liposuction is not as a weight loss solution.
3. Health: You should be in good overall health and not have any underlying medical conditions that may put you at risk during the procedure.
4. Realistic expectations: It’s important to have realistic expectations about what to expect from the procedure. Tumescent liposuction is not a weight-loss solution or a substitution for diet and exercise.
5. Safety: A thorough medical history and examination should be done to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure. We will also evaluate your health status and identify any possible risks you may have during the procedure.
Best Areas to Target with Tumescent Liposuction
Tumescent liposuction works for areas that are resistant to diet and exercise – it does not replace diet and exercise. As Dr. Frank says, he targets the last 10 pounds, not the first! The procedure works best when you are in good overall heath and at a stable weight, but frustrated with certain unresponsive areas such as:
1. Abdomen: Tumescent liposuction can be used to remove excess fat from the abdominal area and create a more defined waistline.
2. Thighs: Tumescent liposuction can be used to sculpt and contour the thighs, creating a more youthful and shapely appearance.
3. Chin and Neck: Tumescent liposuction can be used to remove excess fat from the chin and neck area, creating a more defined jawline and reducing the appearance of a “double chin.”
4. Arms: Tumescent liposuction can be used to remove excess fat from the upper arms, creating a more toned and defined appearance.
5. Flanks (Love Handles): Tumescent liposuction can be used to remove excess fat from the flanks or “love handle” area, creating a more defined and shapely waistline.

Ultrasound-Assisted Tumescent Liposuction for Safe and Effective Lipoma Removal
Say goodbye to unsightly lipomas with minimally invasive, ultrasound-assisted tumescent liposuction. We use this safe and effective technique to remove benign tumors of fat cells, known as lipomas, under local anesthesia with minimal incisions.
The procedure is not only highly effective at removing lipomas, but also results in minimal downtime and scarring. It’s an ideal solution for those in New York City looking to improve their appearance without the risks and recovery time associated with more invasive procedures.

Tumescent Liposuction: Procedure Day
Dr. Frank operates from his fully accredited surgical facility in New York City. Just a local anesthesia is used with mild sedation to increase safety, quicken your recovery, and reduce overall cost. Although minimally invasive, there is always a risk involved, but we do our best to minimize it and have a 100 percent safety record in all 20 years of experience.
During the procedure, you will remain awake and be able to watch how your body is being sculpted. If you prefer, we can provide a sedative that allows you to take a nap, unaware of what is going on. Fat cells will be reduced using light and sound energy, and Dr. Frank will gently massage and suction them with micro-cannulas.
Most patients feel very little discomfort during and after and can go back to work in 36-48 hours with only Tylenol needed. Our team will accompany you throughout the recovery process and will see you in follow-up appointments to ensure your satisfaction with the results and a safe recovery.
