About the Procedure

Awake liposuction is a targeted body-contouring procedure performed by Dr. Sonita Sadio, MD, using tumescent local anesthesia — so there is no general anesthesia, and none of the added risk and recovery that comes with it. You stay comfortably awake throughout, which makes for a safer experience, an easier recovery, and returning home the same day.

Because it is done under local anesthesia, awake liposuction in Miami is best suited to smaller, specific areas rather than large-volume or full circumferential work. Dr. Sadio carefully contours each area for natural, precise results matched to your anatomy and goals.

How the Procedure Is Performed

Fat Access and Removal:

Small, discreet incisions are made to introduce a cannula that gently breaks up and removes fat from areas such as the abdomen, flanks, thighs, back, or arms.

Targeted Contouring:

The surgeon tailors the approach based on the specific anatomy and goals to reshape and refine the silhouette with precision.

Final Sculpting:

The treated areas are assessed for symmetry and balance, ensuring smooth transitions and harmonious contours consistent with individual proportions.

Our Simple Process

Is This Right for Me?

Stable Weight

Candidates typically have a stable body weight near their ideal range, as weight fluctuations can affect surgical planning and long-term contour results.

Good Health

Candidates typically are in good overall health without uncontrolled medical conditions that could increase surgical or anesthetic risk during the procedure.

Subcutaneous Fat

Candidates typically have localized subcutaneous fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise, rather than generalized obesity, which supports safe and effective contouring.

Skin Elasticity

Candidates typically have sufficient skin elasticity to adapt to the new contour after fat removal, helping promote smoother and more harmonious results.

Patient Care

Pre & Post Operative Care

Proper preparation and post-operative care are essential components of a safe liposuction procedure. Following medical guidelines before and after surgery helps reduce risks, support healing, and promote optimal contour outcomes.

Pre-Operative Care

Pre-operative guidelines focus on medical evaluation, lifestyle adjustments, and safety measures designed to prepare the body for liposuction surgery.

Post-Operative Care

Post-operative care instructions support recovery, help manage swelling, and protect the surgical results during the healing process.
