Which Liposuction Techniques Do We Use?
Tumescent Technique
During this technique, Dr. Daiza will first inject a mixture of salt, lidocaine, and epinephrine before suctioning out the fat cells. This special solution shrinks blood vessels and simultaneously isolates fat cells, making the excess fat easier to remove.
Power-Assisted Liposuction
Dr. Daiza will insert a small vibrating tube, also known as a cannula, into the fat layer to break up fat cells for easy removal. This tool is ideal for larger areas since it allows our plastic surgeon to remove more tissue at once.
VASER Liposuction
An Advanced Technique
Dr. Daiza often prefers VASER® power-assisted liposuction due to the variety of benefits it offers her Phoenix and Scottsdale, AZ, patients:
This body contouring technique typically takes one to two hours, much less than other methods.
This method melts the fat before suctioning it away for easier removal.
VASER liposuction is better for fat transfers because it's gentler on the removed fat cells.
VASER is gentler on tissues surrounding the treatment site and leaves veins and arteries intact.
The procedure results in less downtime for the patient; often just a few days.
Recovery involves less pain, bruising, and inflammation.
Dr. Daiza has used the VASER liposuction technique in thousands of cases. He's seen firsthand how transformative it can be.
The Cost of VASER Liposuction
VASER liposuction prices are largely based on a patient's BMI, as a lower BMI means the procedure takes less time to perform. The prices at our Phonix, AZ, office are:
BMI | Cost per area |
|---|---|
18-21 | $1,200 |
22-24 | $1,400 |
25-27 | $1,600 |
28-30 | $1,800 |
31-33 | $2,000 |
34-36 | $2,200 |

What to Expect
During the Liposuction Procedure
Most liposuction cases take about one to two hours per treatment area. If your liposuction procedure is being performed in addition to another cosmetic procedure, the full treatment can take several hours. You can expect several steps:
Liposuction is an effective way to sculpt the neck, arms, abdomen, back, buttocks, inner and outer thighs, knees, ankles, and more.
What to Expect During Liposuction Recovery
Side Effects
Patients may experience bruising, swelling, and some discomfort after surgery. This is normal and very well managed with prescription medication or over-the-counter pain relievers. If you received VASER liposuction, you may not need any pain medication at all.
Compression Garment
Patients must wear a compression garment to reduce swelling and aid in the recovery process. This also helps your body conform to your new shape.
Activity
Liposuction patients can return to daily activities a few days to a week after treatment. Strenuous activities must be avoided for several weeks. We encourage patients to take light walks after surgery to facilitate blood flow.
Follow-Up Appointments
We will schedule several follow-up appointments at our Scottsdale office to monitor your healing. Dr. Daiza will clear you for certain activities, such as exercising, once you are ready.
Combining Lipo With Other Procedures
Liposuction can be combined with other cosmetic surgeries for well-rounded results. Dr. Daiza can combine your liposuction with a:
Tummy Tuck
A tummy tuck, or abdominoplasty, removes excess fat and skin from the abdomen after pregnancy or weight loss. This procedure can be a great way to slim your physique and feel more comfortable in a variety of clothing options.
Mommy Makeover
Pregnancy can take a toll on your abdomen, breasts, and hips. A mommy makeover targets all of your concerns at once and can include liposuction, breast augmentation, breast lift, tummy tuck, and more to restore your pre-pregnancy body.
Breast Augmentation
Dr. Daiza can use VASER liposuction to remove stubborn pockets of fat from your body and transfer them to your breasts. The result is enhanced volume and improved contours with completely natural tissue; no implants needed.
Thigh Lift
If you have cellulite, excess fat, and sagging skin on the inner or outer thighs, liposuction can be combined with a thigh lift procedure to give you the sleek profile you desire. Our Scottsdale office can perform different types of thigh lifts for treatment tailored to your goals.
Brazilian Butt Lift
Dr. Daiza can remove fat from your body and use it to sculpt your buttocks in a Brazilian butt lift procedure. Many patients choose this procedure to improve their bodily proportions, achieve an hourglass figure, or enhance the appearance of flat or saggy buttocks after pregnancy or weight loss.
