Is liposuction only for the body?

No, liposuction isn’t limited to contouring your physique. At Turkle & Associates, our highly skilled team of plastic surgeons also uses liposuction to enhance facial contours, refining smaller areas such as the chin, neck, and jawline. Depending on your vision, we may recommend combining liposuction with dermal fillers to add volume to specific points, while liposuction removes it from others. For example, a patient seeking a sharper jawline may benefit from chin liposuction paired with jawline filler for comprehensive outcomes. At Turkle & Associates, your care plan is unique to you. Our experts will guide you toward the most suitable procedure for your needs and goals.

Is there a noninvasive alternative to liposuction?

Yes. Through Phases Skin Care & Laser Center, we offer CoolSculpting as a noninvasive alternative to liposuction in Indianapolis, though the results won’t be as dramatic as surgery. Using advanced cryolipolysis technology, we target and freeze stubborn fat cells, causing them to die. While this approach requires less downtime than liposuction, it also requires a series of treatments to achieve the most impactful results. During your consultation at Turkle & Associates, we’ll openly discuss your habits, lifestyle, budget, and goals to help create a clear path forward. To help you invest in your confidence without compromise, we’re also happy to discuss our flexible financing options.

Does liposuction require hospital admission?

Generally, liposuction does not require an overnight hospital stay, meaning you can return home the same day. However, if we are treating multiple areas or combining other procedures into the surgery, we may require an overnight stay to ensure your comfort and safety. After creating your personalized surgical plan during your consultation, your surgeon will inform you whether this is necessary, so you can plan accordingly.

Can I combine liposuction with other procedures?

Yes. Many patients include liposuction in their mommy makeover —a tailored combination of procedures designed to restore their physique after childbirth. Often, we pair liposuction with a tummy tuck , breast lift , breast augmentation , and/or labiaplasty . Even if you are not seeking a mommy makeover, our surgeons can still perform a variety of procedures, including facial plastic surgeries, during liposuction. We’ll discuss your specific goals and recommend a plan that aligns with your desired outcomes during your consultation.
