Now Offering TUMESCENT LIPOSUCTION
Dr. Hotchandani, a board certified general surgeon and member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery, is pleased to announce the addition of liposuction to the Hotchandani Laser and Vein Center menu of services. Liposuction, performed under local anesthesia, is being performed in the Green Bay, Wisconsin office.
Liposuction, one of the most common procedures, is designed to remove unwanted fat from isolated areas of the body that don't respond to diet and exercise. Liposuction is not to be considered a treatment for obesity or a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. It is most effective for people with good skin tone and elasticity. If a patient gains weight post-procedure, the fat will be deposited in an untreated location. The liposuction can be repeated, if necessary. In order to have the safest possible procedure, there are limits to how much fat can be removed per treatment.
Various factors will affect the outcome of liposuction. Skin elasticity, diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol consumption, heredity, and physical condition all need to be assessed. It is also important for a patient to have realistic expectations and be in good psychological health.
The procedure consists of a small cannula being inserted through a small incision. The cannula is connected to a suction machine. Liposuction takes approximately an hour, depending on the areas being treated. Patients can expect bruising and swelling which will last about two weeks. Special garments are worn to reduce the swelling and bruising and to assist the healing process.
Most patients see immediate results with continued improvement as the swelling goes down. Patients should move around the day after surgery and continue to increase their activity daily. Most patients are able to return to an office position within 3-5 days. More active work can be resumed in 10-14 days. It is important to stay out of the sun or wear sunscreen post-treatment as your skin will have a higher sensivity to the sun until the bruising has subsided.
The tumescent liposuction technique (as developed by Dr. Jeffrey Klein) offers the following key benefits:
*No hospitalization necessary
*Faster recovery time
*Local, rather than general, anesthesia
*No sutures
*Smoother results
This is the safest liposuction procedure available!
Testimonials from actual patients:
I had liposuction done approximately 5 years ago-It was extremely painful. I could not do my regular routine for at least 3 weeks. I had a lot of areas that still had fat and was lumpy. I went to Dr. Hotchandani for a consult and he suggested tumescent liposuction. I was skeptical because of my past experience. I decided to go ahead with it. I went in on a Tuesday and back to work on Wednesday and back to regular exercise in 3 to 4 days. I am so excited about the results!! Dr. Hothcandani, his nurses, and staff wer so friendly and made me feel so comfortable throughout the procedure. I would recommend it! -A Very Satisfied Patient
On June 12 I had tumescent liposuction of fat on my back under my bra and above my waist. I had wanted liposuction for several years, but was leery of general anesthesia and pain. I also wanted to wait until the surgery was safer with little down time. I am glad I waited. I was a little nervous, but the procedure went better than I could ever have imagined. I was awake the whole time. Dr. Hotchandani injected local anesthetic, and I felt no pain during the procedure. Even after the procedure I only needed Tylenol for mild discomfort. I highly recommend tumescent liposuction and Dr. Hotchandani. I plan on having another area done in the future. CB
As a staff member of Hotchandani Laser and Vein Center, and having been in the aesthetic industry for over six years, I have full confidence in Dr. Hotchandani. After seeing successful results from tumescent liposuction performed by Dr. Hotchandani, I decided to have the procedure done myself. Dr. Hotchandani and his surgical team were warm, professional, and coached me through the entire procedure. I was in no pain what-so-ever. After one day of downtime, I was back to being a mom and employee. Two weeks post surgery, I am working out harder than ever and my clothes are fitting wonderfully! --Shannon R. Office Manager
I had Tumescent Lipo 2 weeks ago, I was a little nervous to have this procedure performed as I wasn't sure the results would be exactly what I wanted. I must say I was only down for the day of surgery. I was back in the gym working out 2 days after, at about 50 %. The procedure was a breeze I can already see a difference. I am anxious to see the end result. I would recommend this procedure to anyone who will listen. You will not regret it. Talk to Dr. H Today !!! You will not believe how great you can be. Thanks Denise, Joan and the rest of the staff you are all terrific. P.S. This is not the only procedure I've had. I love this place. With great Appreciation, T.G.
I am extremely happy with my decision to have liposuction. I had been discouraged for a couple of years after checking with different doctors and the prices, etc. I discovered Dr. Hotchandani online while doing research on tummy tucks, etc. I called and found out that the initial consult was free, so I went. I found out that I could get the results I was looking for at a price I could afford, instead of the tummy tuck that was financially out of my reach. Dr. Hotchandani was really nice and I felt completely comfortable with him during my consult. Dr. Hotchandani was genuinely concerned that I was completely satisfied with my results, which I really appreciated. I have three kids and had the mom "pouch". I had to buy bigger clothes just because of my stomach. No matter how much I exercised, I couldn't get rid of it. I now have a flat stomach and feel so good about myself and my body. Buying clothes is fun and I feel great inside and out. I would recommend liposuction to anyone. I only took one day off and the pain was very minimal, so I didn't have to worry about missing work, taking care of my kids, etc. Perfect for moms like me that are crazy-busy all of the time! - Kristine L.
