Body Contouring with Liposuction

Sculpt. Define. Reveal the Body Beneath.

Precision is everything. When it comes to refining the human form, Dr. Janak Parikh brings a meticulous eye and a sculptor’s touch to every contour. Body contouring with liposuction isn’t just about removing fat — it’s about creating harmony, accentuating natural lines, and restoring balance across the body.

Dr. Parikh is widely recognized for his expertise in awake liposuction, a sophisticated technique that offers patients a more personalized, comfortable, and artful approach to sculpting. For those who prefer it — or when surgical goals require it — liposuction can also be performed under general anesthesia, with the same elevated precision and care.

Awake Liposuction: Sculpted While You’re Still You

Awake liposuction is a highly specialized technique performed under local anesthesia, allowing you to remain relaxed and pain-free — without the risks and downtime associated with general anesthesia. This technique is ideal for patients who want to be involved in their transformation and recover more quickly.

Benefits include:

  • Greater precision in real-time sculpting
  • Shorter recovery times
  • Less swelling and bruising
  • Lower risk of blood clots (DVT/PE)
  • A more personalized, interactive experience

You’ll walk in and walk out the same day — feeling lighter, leaner, and on your way to a more refined silhouette.

Also Offered: Liposuction Under General Anesthesia

While awake liposuction is often the preferred choice for many, Dr. Parikh also offers liposuction under general anesthesia for patients who prefer to be fully asleep or who are undergoing more extensive sculpting. In every case, the experience is tailored to your comfort and goals, with the same commitment to elegance, precision, and safety.

Commonly Treated Areas

  • Abdomen and waistline
  • Flanks (“love handles”)
  • Thighs
  • Calves
  • Arms
  • Bra roll and back
  • Chin and neck

Whether you’re targeting a single area or seeking a full-body transformation, Dr. Parikh’s attention to detail ensures smooth transitions, elegant proportions, and long-lasting results.

Redefining the Art of Liposuction

As both artist and surgeon, Dr. Parikh approaches every case with vision and nuance. His philosophy is grounded in refinement, not reduction — sculpting curves that feel intentional, proportional, and completely your own.

Expect:

  • Natural-looking definition and contour
  • Minimal, discreet incisions
  • Gentle, tissue-preserving techniques for optimal healing
  • A high-touch, concierge-style experience from consult to recovery

Recovery & Results

Recovery varies depending on the extent of your procedure and your chosen anesthesia. Patients undergoing awake liposuction often return to light activity within 1–3 days. Swelling resolves gradually over several weeks, with beautifully refined results that continue to emerge as the body heals.

To support optimal recovery and shape:

  • A medical-grade compression garment is worn postoperatively to reduce swelling, promote skin retraction, and help sculpt the final contour.
  • Lipofoam pads may be placed under the garment to ensure even pressure distribution and smooth healing.
  • Lymphatic drainage massage is strongly recommended to accelerate healing, minimize fluid retention, and enhance definition. Most patients benefit from a series of massages within the first 2–3 weeks after surgery.

Whether performed awake or under general anesthesia, every liposuction journey with Dr. Parikh is designed to refine, elevate, and reintroduce you to the very best version of yourself — confidently sculpted, naturally elegant, and entirely your own.
