If stubborn fat pockets are keeping you from the contoured, confident look you want, liposuction may be the solution. At Charles Chalekson, MD Plastic Surgery, we offer expert liposuction in Santa Maria to help eliminate localized fat deposits and enhance your body’s natural shape—creating smoother curves and long-lasting results.

Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Charles Chalekson combines advanced surgical techniques with a personalized approach to achieve refined, natural-looking outcomes. Whether you’re targeting your abdomen, thighs, breast roll, neck, or flanks, our team is here to help you look and feel your best.

What Is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a minimally invasive body contouring procedure that removes unwanted fat from specific areas of the body through small incisions and a thin, specialized cannula. It’s ideal for patients who are near their ideal weight but struggle with stubborn areas resistant to diet and exercise. In Santa Maria, Dr. Chalekson utilizes numerous techniques and modalities, including power liposuction and ultrasonic liposuction, to provide you with a great outcome.

Common treatment areas include:

  • Abdomen
  • Flanks (love handles)
  • Thighs
  • Upper arms
  • Back
  • Breast roll and breast fold
  • Chin and neck

It’s important to note that liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure—it’s a powerful tool for refining your shape and enhancing proportion.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Liposuction?

You may be a strong candidate for liposuction if you:

  • Are at or near your ideal body weight
  • Have good skin elasticity
  • Are in overall good health
  • Do not smoke or are willing to quit before and after surgery
  • Have realistic expectations about your results

During your consultation in Santa Maria, Dr. Chalekson will assess your anatomy, health history, and goals to determine if liposuction is the right option for you.

Benefits of Liposuction

Liposuction offers both aesthetic and emotional benefits, including:

  • Smoother, more contoured body lines
  • Long-lasting fat reduction
  • Minimal scarring from tiny incisions
  • Enhanced body symmetry and proportion
  • Increased self-confidence in clothing and swimwear

When performed by an experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. Chalekson, liposuction produces natural, balanced results that complement your overall physique.

Your Liposuction Experience at Our Center

We believe every Santa Maria patient deserves a comfortable, personalized liposuction experience—from consultation to recovery. 

Step 1: One-on-One Consultation

Dr. Chalekson will take the time to speak with you to understand your issues,  review your goals, examine your areas of concern, and create a custom surgical plan designed to fit your anatomy and preferences.

Step 2: Preparing for Surgery

On the day of your procedure, Dr. Chalekson will review the plan and mark incision points for precision. You will then receive general anesthesia to ensure comfort and relaxation throughout your procedure.

Step 3: Precision Fat Removal

Using advanced techniques, Dr. Chalekson will remove targeted fat cells and carefully sculpt the treatment areas. He will evaluate symmetry and contour from multiple angles to attempt to create smooth, flattering lines.

Step 4: Recovery and Aftercare

After surgery, you’ll rest in our recovery suite under professional care. Once discharged, you’ll receive personalized aftercare instructions, including how to manage discomfort, swelling, and bruising. Most patients wear a compression garment to aid healing and improve results.

How Long Do Liposuction Results Last?

The fat cells removed during liposuction are then permanently gone. With a stable weight and healthy lifestyle, your slimmer, more defined contours can last for years. Our team will also guide you in maintaining your results through proper skincare and nutrition.
