Awake Lipo vs Traditional Lipo: What’s the Real Difference?
What if we told you there’s a way to remove any body fat without going under? We are talking chin, stomach, abdomen, inner thighs, and any other body fat.
Let’s be real, when people hear the word “Liposuction”, they imagine a hospital bed, drips, anesthesia, a long recovery, and maybe some fear.
Awake Liposuction is changing the future of body contouring, and the best part, you don’t have to be sedated for it. It is a nonsurgical fat removal process that targets and removes stubborn fat deposits from different parts of the body.
More BEIAMED clients are choosing this advanced, minimally invasive approach to refine their hips, arms, and waistlines, while staying awake through the entire process.
So let’s talk about what makes Awake Lipo different from Traditional Lipo.
- The Anesthesia: Awake vs Asleep
- Traditional Liposuction: Requires general anesthesia, which means you are completely unconscious during the procedure. This comes with added risks like a longer recovery period.
- Awake Liposuction: You are awake and alert, with only local anesthesia applied to the treatment area. No IV sedation, no hospital bed, no long recovery.
The advantage: Awake Lipo reduces risk and allows you to return to your day faster, often within hours, not days.
- Procedure and Recovery
- Traditional Lipo: This involves larger incisions, more aggressive fat removal, hence, more bruising and swelling afterward.
- Awake Lipo: Uses tiny incisions and precise, controlled fat removal with minimal trauma to surrounding tissue.
The advantage: With awake Lipo, there will be less bruising, less swelling, and a smoother healing process. Our clients are up and about on the same day.
- Procedure Experience
- Traditional Lipo: You wake up hours later with post-op pain and nausea as a result of the general anesthesia.
- Awake Lipo: You’re aware and relaxed. Many patients even chat with our team during the procedure. You can ask questions, communicate, and feel completely in control.
The BEIAMED Difference: You are part of the whole process, not just a patient lying on a table.
- Results and Precision
- Traditional Lipo: targets larger volumes of fat in a single session and comes with longer downtime.
- Awake Lipo: for precision-based fat sculpting, perfect for targeted areas like the abdomen, inner thighs, arms, or chin.
Think, Less trauma.
- The best option for those who have an Anesthesiophobia
Anesthesiophobia is a fear of being put to sleep. For many, this fear is enough to delay or avoid the procedure altogether.
- Traditional Lipo: requires full unconscious sedation, which can be overwhelming for individuals with this phobia or past trauma related to surgery.
- Awake Lipo: offers a conscious, calm alternative where you stay fully awake, aware, and in control throughout the procedure, with only local anesthesia applied to the targeted area.
