What Is Liposuction?
At MKE Aesthetics & Wellness, we believe that feeling confident in your body can make all the difference in how you live your life. Our approachable team is here to provide safe and personalized solutions, including liposuction procedures, that help bring your goals within reach. Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure that removes stubborn fat deposits from specific areas of the body that diet and exercise alone may not address. Our cosmetic surgical team also performs awake liposuction, which provides a more comfortable and less invasive option for many patients. Whether you're interested in chin liposuction, thigh liposuction, or stomach liposuction, our team works closely with you to determine the proper methodology for your needs. While the cost of liposuction varies on the treatment area and technique, our team can provide pricing details. To get started, schedule a consultation at our Wauwatosa, WI location today.
How Is Liposuction Performed?
At MKE Aesthetics & Wellness, the process for this body shaping procedure begins with a detailed consultation where we assess your goals and recommend the most effective treatment plan. On the day of your procedure, a small incision is made near the treatment area to allow for the insertion of a thin tube called a cannula, which is used to gently suction out unwanted fat. For those choosing awake liposuction, the process is similar but performed with you fully alert under local anesthesia. This approach reduces downtime and allows for a quicker recovery while still achieving effective results. During the procedure, you can expect a relaxed and comfortable environment with our attentive team ensuring you feel at ease.
What Should I Expect after Liposuction?
Healing after liposuction can take several weeks, depending on the number and size of the treated areas. Swelling and bruising are normal during the first 1 – 2 weeks, and sutures are usually removed between days seven and ten. Giving your body time to rest and recover is essential for optimal results. When you feel ready to return to work, be mindful to take it slow and avoid strenuous activities. Our team recommends light movement, such as short walks, to rebuild strength based on your recovery progress. While some changes may be noticeable early on, your final body shape generally takes 6 – 10 months to fully appear.
What Are the Benefits of Liposuction?
At MKE Aesthetics & Wellness, your comfort and safety are our priorities. By addressing areas resistant to diet and exercise, lipo offers a practical solution for refining your silhouette. Liposuction is a versatile procedure with a variety of benefits, including:
- Reshapes your silhouette
- Slims and trims the body

I go to Eva for my facials and she is amazing! She is very knowledgable, friendly and I notice a difference since I have been going for regular facials. My skin is clearer, brighter and more toned. I would highly recommend her. Heidi at the front desk is great to work with and her customer service is wonderful. I also use their skincare products and love them. I have nothing but good things to say about MKE Aesthetics and Wellness.
My favorite Doctor! - Knowledgeable and experienced.
By far one of the best Doctors I have worked with. My weight loss results have been phenomenal as I have lost over 50 lbs effortlessly. Dr. Byom and his entire staff couldn’t be more accommodating, and their prices are fantastic. HIGHLY HIGHLY Recommend!!

Am I A Candidate for Liposuction?
Liposuction is an excellent choice for men and women who maintain a healthy weight but have trouble eliminating stubborn fat through diet and exercise. The procedure works best for those with good skin elasticity since it does not tighten loose or sagging skin. It's also important to note that liposuction is not intended for weight loss. Women planning future pregnancies may want to wait, as changes in the body can impact long-term results. During your consultation, our team will review your goals, set realistic expectations, and help determine if liposuction is your best option.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does liposuction cost?
The price of liposuction depends on the technique used and the number of areas treated. During your consultation, our team will design a customized surgical plan tailored to your goals, needs, and budget. Once your plan is finalized, we will provide an estimated cost. To make liposuction more accessible, MKE Aesthetics & Wellness offers multiple payment options and can assist in finding low-interest medical financing.
Will I have scars?
Since liposuction requires small incisions, some scarring is expected, but our team takes care to minimize their visibility. Incisions are strategically placed in natural folds or discreet locations whenever possible. After surgery, we will provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and help your scars fade over time.
Will my results last?
Long-lasting liposuction results depend on maintaining a stable weight. While fat cells are permanently removed from treated areas, weight gain can still affect your overall shape. Our team recommends reaching or maintaining a healthy weight before surgery and staying within 5 – 10 pounds of your post-surgical weight. If pregnancy occurs after liposuction, it may alter your results, but a procedure like a mommy makeover can help restore your body.
