Liposuction in Elmhurst, IL, Illinois

Dr. Barsky has exciting news for all his patients that suffer from fat deposits. We specialize in full body liposuction and tummy tucks, as well as fat transplantation to the cheeks, lips and nasal labial folds (otherwise known as smile lines) in our ever expanding comprehensive surgical facilities. Liposuction contours the body by removing fat from the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, hips, knees, ankles, arms, chin, and from male breasts. This surgical procedure permanently removes genetically inherited deposits of fat which cannot easily be removed by exercise or crash diets. Fat transplantation facilitates wrinkle, scar and facial fold removal.

What is Liposuction:

Liposuction is a procedure that removes excess fatty deposits through a tiny incision, usually less than one-eighth inch. In addition Dr. Barsky is the first doctor in Illinois with the new vibrational liposuction, which is without the risks of ultrasonic liposuction, and even more effective.

Liposuction can smooth or contour almost any area of the body, and is equally successful in men and women. The most common areas are beneath the chin, the upper arms, the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, ankles, jowls, cheeks, and neck lines can also be recontoured.

Because only a tiny incision is required for the insertion of the tube, our method of facial and body recontouring leaves only minute scars, which are hidden in natural creases - such as the crease of the buttock, or the front of an earlobe - so they are not normally visible. This is a major advantage over the older methods of fat removal surgery.

Your fat cells can be re-injected safely under the skin, to parts of your body that need "pumping up" such as lips, cheeks, nasal labial folds (smile lines) and small scars. Since your own body fat is used, there is no chance of allergy or rejection.

Yes, it is done in our hospital accredited outpatient surgical facilities which is Joint Commissioned. We are one of the few Joint Commissioned accredited cosmetic surgical facility in the state of Illinois and the 5th in the country to recieve this award. Joint Commissioned means the highest quality of surgical care possible. It's like receiving the Nobel Peace Prize for surgery.

During the procedure patients feel no pain because they are lightly sedated and have had a local anesthetic. The discomfort during the postoperative periods is normally minimal and pain medications are usually not necessary.

Recovery times vary among patients. But, usually, you can go back to work and normal activity in two days to one week depending on your particular surgery and the demands made on you at work.

Yes! The fat cells, once removed, will not come back and if your diet remains the same, the benefit of liposuction will remain with you.
