Liposuction has been around for decades, but as aesthetic technology advances, newer, improved systems have been developed. Dr. Graw uses the most advanced techniques for liposuction in Palo Alto.

What is power-assisted liposuction?
Older liposuction systems could not achieve the precision results of power-assisted liposuction. This system uses a vibrating cannula that more easily releases fatty deposits, making them easier to extract, causing less trauma and more precise results. This technique also allows for improved contouring and sculpting of the body. 360-liposuction – the power of precision body sculpting.
Dr. Graw’s signature 360-liposuction can help you achieve that ideal “hourglass” figure, sculpting the body with precision from the front, the sides, and the back. Often called “circumferential liposuction,” this technique involves removing fat around the entire lower abdomen, love handles, and lower back to help you achieve more proportionate curves.
Nevertheless, Dr. Graw conducts lipo in Palo Alto, focusing on fat removal and body sculpting to assist you in attaining the desired curves and silhouette.

What to expect during liposuction?
During power-assisted liposuction (PAL), you can expect a comprehensive process typically involving several steps:
- First, the surgeon will administer anesthesia to ensure your comfort throughout the procedure.
- Once you're numb, small incisions will be made in inconspicuous areas near the targeted treatment sites.
- The surgeon will then insert a specialized vibrating cannula through these incisions, which helps to break up and dislodge the fat deposits.
- The loosened fat is suctioned using a vacuum device connected to the cannula.
Dr. Graw will carefully sculpt and contour the treated areas to achieve the desired aesthetic outcome. After your liposuction in Palo Alto, you may experience swelling, bruising, and discomfort, which can be managed with pain medications and compression garments. Following your surgeon's post-operative instructions for optimal healing and achieving the best results is essential.
Enhanced Liposuction Results with Facetite, Accutite, and Bodytite
Facetite, Accutite, and Bodytite are innovative minimally invasive procedures that can significantly enhance the outcomes of liposuction. These technologies utilize radiofrequency-assisted lipolysis and tissue remodeling to tighten the skin and contour the treated areas. Facetite targets larger regions, such as the face and neck, while Accutite is ideal for smaller areas like the jawline and under-eye region. Bodytite extends the benefits to larger body areas, offering skin tightening alongside fat removal.
By applying controlled thermal energy to the tissues, these procedures stimulate collagen production, resulting in smoother, firmer skin. Combining these technologies with liposuction yields more comprehensive results, allowing patients to achieve their desired body contours with reduced recovery time and minimal scarring.
What is the recovery like after liposuction?
The advanced liposuction treatments performed by Dr. Graw involve about a three-week recovery period. At two weeks, you can return to light activities; at four weeks, you can increase your physical activities as much as is comfortable for you.
During your healing time, you will see us for follow-up appointments to ensure optimal recovery—at weeks one, two, four, and six, followed by appointments at months three, six, and finally, at one year.
