HD Liposuction at Advanced Cosmetic Surgery
HD liposuction picks up where other types of liposuction leave off. This highly precise technique generates results far more dramatic than other liposuction methods because it targets the deepest layers of fat on the body using a smaller cannula. It also takes longer to perform than traditional liposuction and requires greater surgical expertise.
How it works
HD liposuction is a surgical operation requiring general anesthesia. During this procedure, the surgeon uses a tiny cannula and suction to remove fat cells in a meticulous process from around your musculature. If desired, the fat may be injected elsewhere on the body; both techniques serve to enhance muscle definition. This procedure can be performed on multiple areas of the body at once, and is most commonly used to define the abdomen and chest.
Why Choose Us for HD Liposuction?
HD liposuction is a highly technical procedure that can only be performed by the most expert plastic surgeons using advanced equipment. Because of the precision required, you should choose a reputable clinician who can perform symmetrical, well-proportioned sculpting that suits your unique body.
At Advanced Cosmetic Surgery, you’re in good hands:
- All our HD liposuction procedures are performed by our medical director and founder, DR. MCFADDEN, or experienced plastic surgeon DR. FELICE.
- Dr. McFadden is the recipient of numerous awards including the American Institute of Plastic Surgeons’ 10 Best Plastic Surgeons for South Carolina and is a five-time winner of the Patient’s Choice Award.
- Both doctors have extensive surgical training backgrounds and are board-certified.
- All our staff and anesthesia personnel are fully certified.
What to Expect During Your HD Liposuction Surgery
You’ll be under general anesthesia for the duration of the operation, which can last anywhere from 1–4 hours. The length of the procedure depends on how many areas you’re having treated, how much fat is being removed and whether you’re also undergoing a fat transfer.
After surgery, you’ll need to take time off work and your usual activities to rest for 7–10 days. Expect some bruising, tenderness and swelling. During that time, you’ll wear a compression garment, which reduces swelling and helps blood circulate, allowing your body to heal faster.
After 2–4 weeks, you can usually resume light activity and exercise. Don’t return to your usual workout routines until you have clearance from your surgeon.
If you maintain your presurgery lifestyle, the definition you achieve from HD liposuction will be long lasting. However, weight gain and pregnancy will affect the longevity of your results.
Advanced Cosmetic Surgery Reviews
I would recommend Dr. Felice to anyone! I’m one year post-op and can say my results are perfect. Throughout the whole process he has taken the time to truly listen to what I want and made me feel comfortable. He fully explains everything about surgery and recovery. He truly cares about his patients and wants them to be happy with their results. He and his team take the time to listen and have discussions without making you feel rushed or judged. The entire team at advanced cosmetic surgery is friendly and responsive. The physician assistant I saw post op was also amazing! I can say for the first time in my life I feel comfortable trying on clothes and feel more confident in myself and it’s because of the wonderful surgical results Dr. Felice created for me.
Excellent experience!! Fast, personable and love the results. Thank you !!
Dr Felice came highly recommended by my friend and he did not disappoint! He is wonderful and made me feel gorgeous even without treatment!
I have been seeing Dr. Felice for quite some time for my Botox injections. His attention to detail, and the way he achieves such natural looking results made me certain he was the surgeon for me when I got ready to have Upper Blepharoplasty. It was SO EASY! Under local, right in the office, and in an hour! I felt absolutely zero discomfort during the procedure and did not require pain medicine after. This was such a piece of cake! I’m 6 weeks out now, and my results are stunning! Truly! I am amazed and so pleased every time I look in the mirror. I feel so pretty!! ALSO, I can’t believe how much better I can see! Imagine everywhere you look is a 5x7 photo when everyone is seeing the 8x10 full frame! And now I do too! There’s so much blue sky up there! It’s crazy to me that I have thought for so many years that my eyelashes grew downward. Nope! It was actually my excess skin on the lid sitting down on them that pushed them downward. If you are considering this procedure, just do it! I am SO glad I did!
I had a full-face laser resurfacing done by Abby. I cannot speak highly enough of her professionalism, her care, and her kindness. My experience at Advanced Cosmetic Surgery has been excellent, and I have found all the staff to be extremely helpful and friendly.

To be a good candidate for this procedure you must:

If you’re not sure whether you qualify for this surgery, the best way to find out is to TALK WITH US!
Treatment Areas
HD liposuction helps you carve out a lean physique and eliminate fat that no amount of training and dieting will correct. Often performed as a procedure called “abdominal etching,” this procedure can be performed on the abdomen to get you closer to six-pack abs, super-defined boxer’s muscles and shredded obliques.
But the benefits don’t stop there. In fact, one of the biggest advantages of HD liposuction is its incredible versatility. This procedure can be performed almost anywhere on the body including:
- Abdomen
- Back
- Buttocks
- Calves and ankles
- Chest
- Chin and neck
- Hips, flanks and thighs
- Upper arms
Frequently Asked Questions
Is liposuction safe?
Liposuction is considered very safe. However, it is a surgery and all surgeries are associated with a certain amount of risk. Possible complications include bleeding, contour irregularities, fluid accumulation and numbness. To reduce your risk of complications, choose a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in HD liposuction specifically, such as Dr. McFadden or Dr. Felice.
Will I have visible scars?
Liposuction incisions are generally about 5mm long. They are generally imperceptible and heal so well in most patients that they are a non-issue. However, results cannot be guaranteed.
What happens if I gain weight after liposuction?
If you gain weight post-surgery, you’ll do so proportionately all over your body. Although HD liposuction does remove a high percentage of fat, any remaining cells may grow in size as you gain weight producing a disproportionate look between the operated and unoperated areas.
Complementary and Alternative Treatments
Not sure if HD liposuction is right for you, but still interested in a body sculpting solution? We can offer several other options:
- TUMESCENT LIPOSUCTION: This more standard form of liposuction can reduce unwanted fat from almost anywhere on the body; it has a shorter recovery period and does not require general anesthesia, but it can’t provide the same level of muscle definition.
- ABDOMINOPLASTY: If you’re dealing with excess skin and fat on the lower stomach, an abdominoplasty or tummy tuck may be right for you. This outpatient procedure trims your waistline and is especially effective for people who have recently undergone major weight loss or who have a sagging stomach post-pregnancy.
- COOLSCULPTING: For those unwilling or unable to undergo cosmetic surgery, CoolSculpting is a 100% noninvasive alternative. The procedure involves freezing and destroying fat cells using a patented device; fat cells are naturally expelled from the body, leaving you with a slimmer look.
How Much Does HD Liposuction Cost?
HD liposuction is considered the most highly technical type of liposuction that requires advanced, specialized equipment and more experience; therefore the cost is higher than other forms of liposuction. For details on our liposuction prices, GIVE US A CALL.
