Liposuction Q & A

What is liposuction?

Rocky Mountain Spine & Sports Medicine uses BeautiFill™ Alma™ laser technology to eliminate stubborn body fat and transfer it to other areas of your body if you’d like. Innovative BeautiFill liposuction gives you better overall results with smooth, slim body contours and minimal downtime.

What are the benefits of liposuction?

Some of the numerous benefits associated with laser-assisted liposuction at Rocky Mountain Spine & Sports Medicine include:


  • Fat grafting without synthetic fillers
  • Safe, effective fat removal or transfer
  • No general anesthesia
  • Quality results
  • Short recovery times
  • Minimal discomfort
  • Skin tightening
  • Better body contours
  • Minimal bleeding, swelling, and bruising


Laser-assisted liposuction is an outpatient treatment so that you can go home the same day as the procedure.

What is autologous fat transfer?

During autologous fat transfer, Dr. Navarkal takes suctioned fat from your body and transfers it to other areas to enhance body contours. He can transfer fat to your butt during a Brazillian butt lift, to your breasts, or to other areas of your body.

What happens during liposuction?

Prior to liposuction at Rocky Mountain Spine & Sports Medicine, Dr. Navarkal reviews your medical history and completes a physical exam to determine if the procedure is right for you. During treatment, he numbs the area and offers you a sedative to help relax.

Dr. Navarkal uses laser technology to slowly suction out excess fat in problem areas, such as your:

  • Thighs
  • Under-chin area
  • Upper-arm area
  • Breasts
  • Buttocks
  • Love handles
  • Abdomen
  • Hips
  • Knees
  • Calves
  • Ankles

Using autologous fat transfer, he can inject fat from these areas into other areas to restore lost volume and optimize body contouring.

What should I expect after liposuction?

After liposuction, you recover in the office for a while and receive post-procedure instructions from Dr. Navarkal. You can go home the same day but plan to have someone drive you there. Expect to experience some swelling, soreness, or mild bruising. Take a few days off work and avoid strenuous exercise until Dr. Navarkal gives you the okay.

Take all medications as prescribed and attend follow-up appointments with Dr. Navarkal. Over time, as swelling subsides, you’ll experience smoother, tighter, younger-looking skin and improved body contours. Results from fat injections are noticeable immediately.

Don’t live with unsightly bulges that linger despite healthy eating and an active lifestyle. Schedule a liposuction consultation with Dr. Navarkal at Rocky Mountain Spine & Sports Medicine by phone or online today.
