Liposuction is one of the most-performed body contouring procedures in the United States, and Dr. Amir Ghaznavi has performed more than 800 liposuction cases over his career. He is a double board-certified plastic surgeon (American Board of Plastic Surgery, American Board of Surgery), an active member of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons Cosmetic Subcommittee, and a former staff plastic surgeon at AirSculpt in Vienna, Virginia.
This page is the starting point for understanding liposuction at AMG Plastic Surgery. Because liposuction is a category, not a single procedure, the right approach depends on which area of the body needs contouring and what outcome the patient is after. Dr. Ghaznavi evaluates each patient during a one-on-one consultation and recommends the specific liposuction approach that fits their anatomy and goals.
Liposuction Procedures Offered at AMG Plastic Surgery
Each of the procedures below is a distinct service with its own dedicated page. The right choice depends on which area of the body is being treated and the patient’s body composition.
Lipo 360
Lipo 360 treats the entire midsection in a single session, the abdomen, flanks, waist, lower back, and lower bra roll. It is the right procedure for patients who want a balanced, proportional silhouette rather than fat removal from a single isolated area. Dr. Ghaznavi has performed over 800 liposuction procedures, including a high volume of lipo 360 cases, and tailors the technique to each patient’s body composition.
High-Definition Liposuction
High-definition liposuction sculpts the body to enhance underlying muscle definition rather than simply reducing fat volume. It is the right procedure for patients who are already fit and want a more athletic, toned appearance, particularly in the abdomen, chest, flanks, and back.
Chin Liposuction
Chin liposuction targets fat under the chin and along the jawline to reduce the appearance of a double chin and improve neck definition. It is performed under local anesthesia with sedation and has a short recovery.
Male Liposuction
Liposuction techniques tailored for male patients, including abdominal etching, gynecomastia-related fat removal, and flank contouring. Dr. Ghaznavi adjusts technique selection based on the differences in male fat distribution and skin elasticity.
Liposuction Revision
Patients with poor results from prior liposuction performed elsewhere often need revision. Dr. Ghaznavi handles contour irregularities, asymmetry, and over-resection with careful planning and, when needed, fat grafting.
