Invest in your overall health and well-being with durable liposuction that gets the most refined results.
By partnering with a globally-recognized, Board-certified plastic surgeon like Dr. Laurence Kirwan, you can trust that your liposuction procedure will be performed to the highest safety and quality standards. Due to the considerable expertise of Kirwan Plastic Surgery, your fat removal procedure at our well-appointed office in Norwalk, Connecticut, is also an exceptional value and a terrific investment in your overall health, well-being, and quality of life.
What makes your approach to liposuction such a good value?
Our advanced techniques and the technologies that support them render the most durable or long-lasting results. They also help to ensure the most natural and desirable results. The 3D-SLS approach and power-assisted liposuction technologies help you get more out of your treatment. We support greater definition and skin retraction with these techniques compared to conventional liposuction approaches.
What do you mean by 3D-SLS?
3-Dimensional Superficial Liposculpture differs from conventional suction-assisted lipoplasty or ultrasonic-assisted lipoplasty as it lifts the fatty tissue from the intermediate and superficial layers of fat. “Traditional” approaches do not affect the superficial fatty layers. Instead, they only remove fat from within the deeper layers. Since 3D-SLS removes both superficial and deep fat, the risk of the heavier outer layer falling and causing unwanted rolls, bumps, and other irregularities is avoided. Additionally, Dr. Kirwan can perform very precise and delicate body contouring by taking a multi-layered approach to removing fat rather than focusing on a single, deeper layer. So, it’s not just about reducing the fat volume; our approaches also optimally simulate the delicate curvature of the backside, hips, and outer thighs.

And what do you mean by “power-assisted” technologies?
As a specialist, we have invested in only the latest and greatest proven technologies to facilitate dramatic yet natural and safe improvements. Our technologies include the Power-Assisted Liposuction handpiece or PAL® by MicroAire. This device reciprocates rather than rotates when removing fat, which helps to support the movement of the cannula or tube in the tissue. Fat is removed through these cannulas. Powered by nitrogen or compressed air, this technology minimizes the force required to remove fat – particularly in those fibrous areas such as the back and chest. By combining this device with the 3D-SLS technique, we can more thoroughly remove fat in one stage and via contouring while minimizing the risk of side effects associated with earlier-generation methods. So, you get optimal results in less time and experience a more comfortable recovery with minimal discomfort or swelling.

Why is this such a long-lasting or “durable” treatment?
With diet and exercise alone, fat cells do not go away. They shrink. With surgical or professional interventions, the removed fat is gone for good. Your results will be sustained as long as you maintain a stable weight. Remember, any remaining fat cells that were not treated or removed can diminish the results from treatment if considerable weight gain occurs. Likewise, due to our advanced techniques, liposuction at Kirwan Plastic Surgery can be an appropriate option for those with some skin laxity. Our delicate reshaping allows the skin to contract and tighten to conform with leaner contours. Again, though, if substantial weight loss occurs, it can affect the long-term results. Maintaining a healthy, stable weight without significant gains or losses is important.
