Why You Need African American Liposuction in DC

You might be surprised to learn that women tend to have different goals for a tummy tuck when seeking either a Caucasian or an African American liposuction treatment in DC.

Most plastic surgeons will tell you that while every woman has their own goals through liposuction, they find that black women tend to gear towards wanting an emphasis on a curvy, hourglass figure.

What Is a Tummy Tuck?

During a tummy tuck, the small overhang of excess skin and fat on your stomach is removed.

Once removed, your muscles will be tightened in order to create a flattened, well defined stomach area.

If preferred, many surgeons can even enhance your results further by also removing fat from the back and the hips to better accentuate the waist.

The Benefits of African American Liposuction

Performing African American liposuction requires a special precision in order to focus the results per the patient’s instructions.

In most cases, the end result is to achieve a figure that is curvy, seamless, and smooth.

Recovery Time

The type of tummy tuck you receive will dictate your recovery time.

A mini tummy tuck will generally require around two weeks of recovery.

However, if you have a more extensive tummy tuck you should plan on a three to four week recovery period.

Swelling and bruising following the procedure is common and should resolve over time.
