COMBINATION TREATMENTS = CREATING THE BEST RESULTS IN THE LEAST AMOUNT OF TIME
Restoring volume in your face is one of the most effective and natural ways to look younger and more vibrant. Restylane and Juvederm treatments are a quick and effective way to give your face instant volume - smoothing out deeper lines and folds, and plumping lips for a youthful smile. The positive effects of Restylane and Juvederm are even more dramatic when used in combination with the smoothing effects of Botox. Botox not only smoothes fine lines and wrinkles - it also prevents new lines and wrinkles from forming! Both treatments can be performed in less than 15 minutes and typically do not require any downtime. Worried about facial skin laxity? Add Thermage to your treatment plan for a non-surgical face lift! Be proactive in maintaining your skin - call us for a complimentary consultation to see what combination treatments can do for you. You will be amazed by the results!

About Fat Grafting Procedures

FAT INJECTIONS TO THE FACE
One of the best ways to help reverse the signs of aging is to add body fat to the face! Using gentle techniques, Dr. Naficy removes fat from the abdomen, thighs, or buttocks. Your own fat is then injected into the face to fill in wrinkles, correct nasolabial folds, or to plump lips. The greatest advantage of fat over Sculptra or Restylane is that it is 100% natural.

Our Advanced Liposuction Technique
Liposuction of the Breast and Body
Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical technique that contours a region of the body, resulting a more youthful and sculpted appearance. Excellent liposuction results depend on removing a sufficient amount of fat to contour the body, but leaving enough fat behind for the result to be smooth and natural appearing.
Regions of the body that can be contoured with liposuction include
- Abdomen (tummy)
- Flanks (love handles)
- Thighs and calves
- Buttocks
- Arms
- Neck
- Breast
- Male chest
- Bra rolls
Liposuction relies on the skin's natural elastic properties, which allow the skin to contract down around the reduced volume of each treated area. Patients with youthful and elastic skin tend have the best results with liposuction. Patients with stretch marks and loose folds of skin do not benefit from liposuction treatment and should consider other types of body contouring surgery.
We offer the latest liposuction technology, including tumescent liposuction and power assisted liposuction.
Many new liposuction devices have been introduced into the market recently, all claiming to cause skin 'tightening' in addition to removing fat. These devices include the use of lasers (like SmartLipo), ultra-sound energy (Vaser) or water jets (BodyJet).
A good liposuction result is most dependant on the surgeon, and not the particular liposuction device used.
Our liposuction technique uses power assisted liposuction (PAL) instruments. With our Liposuction technique, substantial amounts of body fat are removed. Some layers of fatty tissue are preserved to create a smooth and sculpted liposuction result.
Dr. Gottlieb will plan your liposuction procedure by examining the region to be treated, and its relationship to the local zones of adhesion. Meticulous planning of liposuction procedures is essential for a smooth post-operative contour.
During a liposuction procedure, patient safety and comfort is our top priority. Our laser liposuction and PAL technique can be can be performed without a general anesthesia, reducing the risk of side effects considerably. For the most rapid recovery, tumescent liposuction can also be done while you are awake, or under 'twilight sedation'.
Laser liposuction and PAL treatments work best for relatively healthy people who wish to eliminate small, unwanted fat deposits from their thighs, hips, upper arms, and buttocks.
Patients return to work and exercise after a couple of days following our laser liposuction and PAL treatments.
All liposuction procedures are done in our Medicare and Washington State certified Ambulatory Surgery Center in Bellevue, WA.

What is unique about Liposuction?
The Liposuction technique uses both tumescent technique and power assisted liposuction to optimize the cosmetic result.
The technique is designed to emphasize the underlying muscular anatomy and complement the positive portions of the patient's figure. Liposuction uses tumescent anesthesia and micro cannula to target specific regions of the abdomen, back, breast and arms and thighs.
liposuction results in a smoother, more pleasing contour that is designed to avoid contour irregularities of the skin. By selectively treating certain areas of the body, cosmetic results are optimized.
In the graphic below, Liposuction treatment areas are marked in 'blue'. 'Zones of adhesion' in which liposuction results in contour abnormalities are marked in 'red'.
Liposuction zones are shown in blue.

Why is Liposuction safe?
Our unique Liposuction technique combines the tumescent anesthetic technique and power assisted liposuction to gently remove unwanted fat. liposuction efficiently sculpts the treatment area with minimal 'down time' recovery for each patient.
Does Liposuction result in any skin retraction?
Substantial skin retraction is seen with our Liposuction technique which combines tumescent anesthetic technique and power assisted liposuction. The skin retraction seen with Liposuction is a result of the skin's own elastic properties. The skin's natural elastic properties retract around the reduced volume of the treatment area, leaving a smooth and natural contour. Results are best in patients that have youthful and elastic skin.
How does the Liposuction procedure work?
Prior to your procedure, Dr. Gottlieb will take photographs of you, and will create a customized Liposuction Treatment Plan. Regions to be treated are carefully marked for liposuction. At the beginning of the procedure, a tumescent numbing solution is infiltrated into the treatment areas. Small cannula (tubes) are used to evacuate fat in regions that need therapy. The tiny incisions used for liposuction heal in just a few days.
What type of anesthesia is used?
Liposuction is performed by a Plastic Surgeon, in a certified operating room. With the use of tumescent numbing solution, liposuction can be done comfortably while you are awake. If you would prefer to be sleeping during the liposuction procedure, a twilight anesthesia can be used. Because Liposuction does not require a general anesthetic, recovery is rapid.
Can Liposuction be done with other procedures?
Liposuction can be done in combination with other procedures, such as breast augmentation and a tummy tuck for a complete Mommy Makeover procedure. Body Liposuction can also be combined with any facial cosmetic procedure that we perform.
Can Liposuction be combined with Fat Grafting?
Our Liposuction can be combined with fat transfer procedures to the breast and buttock. Fat transfer, or fat grafting, is a technique that transfers fat from where you don't want it, and places it where you want more volume.
A Brazilian Butt Lift and Lipo Breast Augmentation are two procedures that can be combined with a comprehensive body liposuction procedure. The volume of your buttocks or breasts can be enhanced using your own living tissues, avoiding the use of an artificial implant device.
What is the recovery process like?
Dr. Gottlieb asks his patients to remain active after the procedure as this helps to prevent deep-vein thrombosis (DVT, or blood clots inside the vessels of the legs) and speeds recovery. Additionally, you will be asked to a wear a light compression garment (like Spandex) for 2 weeks post operatively to help maintain your new shape. Downtime is minimal due to the use of tumescent anesthesia. Most patients are back at work in 2-3 days making this an ideal procedure for a weekend recovery. Results from liposuction tend to improve as the weeks pass after your procedure.
Can Liposuction be used for weight loss?
Liposuction is not a safe means of weight-loss, and is never a replacement for healthy diet management and a sound exercise routine. In fact, the best results with liposuction are seen in patients close to their ideal body weight that have 'stubborn' regions of fattiness.
The maintenance of a stable body weight and routine exercise habits help enhance the result after liposuction.
Dr. Gottlieb works with some excellent dieticians and exercise trainers that can help you maintain your new body contour. He will be happy to make a referral for you as part of your individualized cosmetic treatment plan.
