Liposuction is one of the most commonly performed plastic surgery procedures in the world. Dr. Scott Haydon and his skilled team at the Austin Plastic Surgery Institute & Skin Care Clinic routinely perform liposuction in Austin for patients who wish to trim excess fat from certain areas of the body.
For many women, a healthy lifestyle of exercise and a sensible diet can’t rid the body of specific stubborn pockets of fatty tissue. Liposuction and micro lipo are the permanent solution for spot reduction and a contoured figure.
Dr. Haydon and his team will meet with you during your consultation to listen to your concerns and understand the areas where you want to see change. Dr. Haydon’s personalized approach to each patient will leave you feeling confident that the results from liposuction treatment will deliver the look you want.
Liposuction can be used to remove excess fat from a wide variety of areas, including the abdomen, upper arms, back, buttocks, and thighs. It can also be used to address gynecomastia by removing excess fat from the male chest.
The first step in this fat removal procedure involves injecting a tumescent solution. Then, using a vibrating cannula, the fat is emulsified and liquefied. A separate cannula is then used to aspirate the fat and it is carefully measured to assure symmetry with the opposite side.
Finally, there is a specialized cannula that vibrates and smooths out the contour. This assures that the most fat is being removed and that there is minimal risk of irregularity.

Liposuction Recovery
Once the surgery is complete, you’ll wear a compression garment on the treated area to help control swelling and support your skin in conforming to your newly contoured body.
For many patients, down time from liposuction lasts less than a week. Those working indoor desk jobs can return to the office in 5-7 days. Depending on the extent of your procedure and location of the incision, you should be able to return to normal activities or more strenuous work in two to three weeks.
Your aftercare with Dr. Haydon will help you determine what level of activity is right for you. Each patient at our facility is treated with the utmost care and personalized approach, so your healing window may differ from others based on the many variables surrounding your procedure.
Liposuction patients can expect swelling and bruising in the treated areas. Results of the procedure may not be fully visible for 1 to 3 months after surgery, but nearly all discoloration and inflammation should fade in 2 to 4 weeks.
“I have nothing but praise to give!”

Dr. Haydon was my 3rd and final consult for my long list of surgeries desired. Circumfrential TT, breast augmentation, thigh lift, arm lift and liposuction after a successful weightloss journey. I have received nothing but the upmost support and professionalism from Dr. Haydon and all his staff. From the first appointment, I felt that Dr. Haydon was genuinely invested in helping me reach my goals and overall quality of life. From pre-op, to the procedures, to the recovery facility and their staff, to now post-op for the second round of surgeries in a year, I have nothing but praise to give!
Dr. Haydon has a sincere, real ability to help you have a vision of what your end results will be.

Micro Lipo
Micro lipo surgery is a smaller scale of liposuction for more sensitive, focal and stubborn areas. The cosmetic procedure is a treatment used to contour and remove fat from the flanks, inner thighs, inner knees, neck, chin, cheeks and jawline. Through a combination of tiny incisions, Dr. Haydon can remove small pockets of fat that can’t be reduced through exercise or diet.
Micro lipo is often performed to keep your body proportioned and achieve a balanced look. Micro-liposuction is an ideal solution if you want to contour or enhance stubborn areas. The treatment is used to enhance your overall facial appearance as well as other areas on the body.
