Awake Abdominal Liposuction | No General Anesthesia Needed

What’s it like to have liposuction while awake?

In this video, our patient undergoes abdominal liposuction with only local anesthesia -- no general anesthesia, no IV sedation.

💬 Hear her reaction mid-surgery:
“I didn’t feel any pain.”
“It’s better than I expected.”
”The environment’s really calming " - talking with Dr. Kim and listening to music

The benefits of awake surgery include:
-Safety without the risks of general anesthesia
-Avoids the risks of cognitive decline linked to general anesthesia and IV sedation = memory loss and dementia
-Faster, smoother recovery
-Patients remain comfortable and in control
