Cost of a Liposuction – Palm Springs | Rancho Mirage | Palm Desert

Stubborn unwanted fat that doesn’t respond to rigorous exercise or diet plans, can be easily removed through a liposuction cosmetic surgery. The surgery typically caters to getting rid of excess fat in the neck, arms, breasts, abdomen, thighs, buttock and face, to give them a more desirable contour. Having said that, liposuction cannot be used to remove cellulite from the body, as it is only used to treat the excess fat. All said and done, the big question is, how much does a liposuction cost?

What’s the average cost of a liposuction?

Cost consideration are crucial when you’re working on a budget for your plastic surgery. While choosing a good plastic surgeon is probably where you’d want to start out, looking for an affordable surgery is just as important. Dr. Suzanne Quardt, an experienced plastic surgeon of Palm Springs, says that the cost of a liposuction surgery depends on a wide range of factors, which explains the discrepancy in its price across facilities. The costs are predominantly governed by the surgeon’s fee, anesthesiologist’s fee, surgical facility charges, pre-op test fees, cost of post-op garments and medications. The location and the experience of your cosmetic surgeon, are factors that cause a huge margin in the fee, while the liposuction technique used, affects it too.

Its average cost can range anywhere between $2000 and $7000. And this cost, corresponds to getting a liposuction done only in one area. The costs can increase by $1200-$4000, for every addition of another body part for the surgery. These costs don’t cover all the expenses though. You still need to take into account, the anesthesia fee, fee from lab tests and post-surgery garment fee, while estimating the total cost.

How to budget your liposuction surgery?

Some cosmetic surgeons provide package offers, which work out in a more cost-effective way, if you’re looking at getting a liposuction done in multiple areas. These deals provide a flat fee option for expenses that come from anesthesia fee and operating facility charges. This way, the patient can undergo the surgery in multiple areas, without individually paying out the additional charges each time.

Liposuction, like other plastic surgeries is usually not covered by insurance. If you’re undergoing a liposuction to aesthetically improve your appearance, your insurance company will not tend to the costs. But if it is performed to deal with medical conditions, such as lipoma, some insurance agencies might cover the expenses. Anyway, talk to your insurance agent for any clarifications on the same.

Benefits of a liposuction surgery

Liposuction helps in improving the body shape by getting rid of unwanted layers of fat. Health issues that stem from excess, unnecessary body fat, can be stopped through this. It is also considered to be a safe method, as it shows very few complications. While a healthy diet plan can help in keeping fat at bay, some areas may pose problems due to the presence of stubborn fat, which can be dealt with through a liposuction plastic surgery. Some individuals who undergo the procedure also report a reduction in the formation of cellulite after surgery, although the procedure doesn’t exclusively tend to cellulite.

Liposuction – Palm Springs | Rancho Mirage | Palm Desert

Do you dread looking into the mirror, scared to face up to the bulging layers of flab protruding from your body? Coping with flab issue can be quite daunting, but there’s a way out. If exercise regimes and diet alterations have come to no avail in your case, a liposuction could probably help. This cosmetic surgery helps in removing fat in the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks, thighs, neck, arms and face.

For whom is a liposuction beneficial?

Liposuction is a type of plastic surgery that can be used to remove excess fat deposits caused due to,

Heredity– cases where fat deposits cannot be reduced by resorting to strict diet regimes or exercise routines.
Lipoma– a benign tumor that can grow in size over time. Although liposuction is not the standard way of treating Lipoma, it can be done in some cases.
Gynecomastia– excessive tissue growth forming breasts, in men.

The liposuction procedure

Liposuction can be performed using any of these techniques,which will be decided by the plastic surgeon based on what best suits the patient.

Traditional liposuction: The cosmetic surgeon first makes incisions in the area where the fat is to be removed. He then injects a fluid containing an anesthetic, salt solution and epinephrine, into the region where the incisions are made. The fluid helps in sedating the patient, along with reducing the blood loss and bruising. The plastic surgeon then inserts a hollow tube called cannula, which is constantly pumped to loosen the surrounding fat cells. He then uses a syringe or a surgical vacuum to drain out the fat cells with the help of a cannula.

Ultrasound liposuction: This liposuction method is FDA approved. The surgeon starts by making a few incisions in the problematic area. He then applies ultrasonic vibrations through an emitter, or a cannula that is ultrasonic in nature, to cause the fat to breakdown. Following this, he removes the fat cells through a vacuum/ syringe or cannula.

Laser liposuction: This FDA approved method employs laser fibers to heat the fat cells. The surgeon makes incisions in the treatment area. He injects a fluid where the incisions have been made, just as in the case of a traditional liposuction. He then inserts a laser fiber so as to loosen the excess fat cells. He removes the fat cells by means of a surgical vacuum or cannula.

Post procedure recovery

Once the surgery is completed, the patient may have to stay at the surgical facility for the next few hours or overnight. The treated area will be bandaged and you may have to wear a compression garment, to minimize any bruising or swelling. The incision might have drain pipes attached to them, to remove excess blood or fluid, which the doctor will soon remove. The surgically operated area is also likely to show some bruising/ swelling, which should reduce in the following weeks. It may take anywhere between a few weeks to a few months for you to completely recover. Dr. Suzanne Quardt, who is an experienced plastic surgeon of Palm Springs, says that the healing time varies based on the technique used, amount of fat cells removed, heath, age and such.

Mommy Makeover – Palm Desert | Palm Springs | Rancho Mirage

Dr. Suzanne Quardt, affectionately known as Dr. Q among her patients, is a board certified plastic surgeon. She provides advanced cosmetic surgery procedures of the breast, body and face to her patients in and around Palm Springs and Palm Desert. She has earned several recognitions during the course of her career as a cosmetic surgeon, and has been featured in a number of national publications such as the New Beauty Magazine and the Plastic Surgery Practice.

What is a Mommy Makeover?

One of the most comprehensive procedures that Dr. Q, as a plastic surgeon, provides to her patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and surrounding communities is mommy makeover. A mommy makeover is essentially a combination of two or more cosmetic surgery procedures to help improve the overall physical appearance of a woman. As the name suggests, the procedure is performed primarily on mothers who are keen to regain their pre-pregnancy figure.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding can impact a mom’s appearance in several ways. Some moms gain excess weight or develop fat deposits in several areas of the body such as thighs, buttocks, waist, and arms. In some cases the breasts may experience loss of volume or may become excessively heavy or may sag. Some women may also develop excess fat and loose skin on the face and neck. An experienced cosmetic surgeon may recommend a mommy makeover procedure for most effective outcome in such cases.

Components of a Mommy Makeover

A fantastic and sparkling aspect about a mommy makeover procedure is that it is an entirely customized plastic surgery package, designed to match with the specific needs and aesthetic goals of a particular patient. The surgeon will decide the treatment approach and the best combination of procedures in close consultation with the patient. Some of the typical procedures that Dr. Q provides to her patients in Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, Los Angeles and nearby areas as a part of a mommy makeover include the following:

Breast lift: This procedure is performed to raise drooping breasts following breastfeeding. It may also include repositioning of nipples and areolas to a raised location. The breasts will appear firmer and more youthful with a breast lift procedure.

Breast reduction: Following childbirth, many moms develop heavier breasts that may be disproportionate to the rest of the body. It may not only compromise the aesthetic appearance, but may also cause pain, discomfort and restriction of movements. Breast reduction surgery is an effective way to reduce excess fat, tissue, and skin from the breasts and reshape them to a smaller size.

Tummy Tuck: Abdominal area usually bears the maximum brunt of a pregnancy, and excess fats and loose skin may occur around the waist. Abdominoplsty or tummy tuck surgery can effectively remove excess fat and skin to help a mom achieve a flatter and firmer tummy.

Liposuction: In some cases, the mother may develop excess pockets of fat in specific areas of the body such as hips, thighs, tummy, breasts, arms, or neck. These stubborn fat deposits may not go away with exercise or diet. In such cases, the cosmetic surgeon may recommend liposuction as a part of a mommy makeover procedure.

Labiaplasty: Following childbirth, some mothers may be dissatisfied with the shape and appearance of the labia and vaginal area. Vaginal rejuvenation and improving the shape of labia is possible through labiaplasty. This surgery may be included as a part of a mommy makeover.

Other Possible Facets of this Process

Sometimes a plastic surgeon may also include facelift and eyelid surgery procedures also along with a mommy makeover to reduce the facial signs of aging. Non-surgical treatments such as dermal fillers may also be used for facial rejuvenation.

Available in Palm Springs: Non-surgical Facial Procedures: Botox, Dysport, Dermal Fillers, and Laser Skin Resurfacing

Dr. Suzanne Marie Quardt, or Dr. Q as she is known among her patients, is a board certified plastic surgeon. She provides safe, proven, and effective cosmetic surgery as well as non-surgical treatments to her patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert and nearby communities. Her office is fully equipped with state of the art technologies to provide plastic surgery as well as non-invasive procedures for cosmetic enhancement.

As an experienced cosmetic surgeon, she understands the need of some of her patients in Palm Springs and Palm Desert to avoid surgery and opt for non-surgical solutions. She makes sure that the latest and most effective non-invasive and minimally invasive procedures are provided to her patients in a safe and friendly environment.

Botox and Dysport

Many patients wish to reduce wrinkles and fine lines from the face without having to undergo a plastic surgery procedure. In such cases, Dr. Q may recommend Botox or Dysport as effective FDA approved anti-aging treatments for the face. This treatment involves injecting the wrinkle-causing muscle directly with the medication through thin needles. The targeted muscle immediately goes into a state of temporary relaxation, and the wrinkle fades away or disappears completely. The biological agent used in both Botox and Dysport is botulinum toxin, which is one of the most powerful neurotoxins known to man.

Botox was approved by the FDA for reduction of frown lines from the forehead in 2002. Ever since then, it has remained one of the most popular cosmetic anti-aging facial treatments for people who wish to avoid cosmetic surgery. Botox has recently earned FDA’s approval also for the reduction of crow’s feet around the eyes. Dysport has yet to gain this approval, but both treatments are proven and effective for the reduction or removal of crow’s feet. Dr. Q offers both options to her patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert and surrounding communities. Results with both treatments may last for around three to four months in most cases.

Dermal Fillers

A number of highly effective facial fillers, also known as cosmetic dermal fillers or soft tissue fillers are available today that have been approved by the FDA for the reduction of wrinkles, facial folds and lines. As an experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Q understands the need of some of her patients in Palm Springs and Palm Desert to avoid surgery and yet achieve similar aesthetic outcomes for the face. She may recommend some of the most effective dermal fillers to candidates who are fit to receive filler treatment.

Most facial fillers can achieve quick results in terms of adding volume to the face, augmenting certain areas of the face such as lips or cheeks, and reducing or removing deep, moderate and fine wrinkles. Dr. Q provides various filler options, including Restylane and Perlane, Juvederm, Radiesse, Hylaform, Hyalform Plus, and Sculptra Aesthetic. All of these fillers are FDA approved and highly effective for cosmetic rejuvenation of the face. Dr. Q combines her training and experience as a cosmetic surgeon to ensure best injectable filler treatments for her patients.

Laser Skin Resurfacing

It is possible to reduce conspicuous signs of aging from the face and other anomalies such as uneven skin tone, rough texture, wrinkles, and fine lines and skin laxity with the help of a conservative, non-surgical laser technique called laser skin resurfacing.

Dr. Q’s office is equipped with Palomar’s Artisan Multi-Wavelength Platform, which is a state of the art technology to deliver highly effective results for facial skin rejuvenation. Different patients have different aesthetic needs and goals, and the Artisan system is one of the most effective technologies available to achieve optimal results without causing damage to the health of the outer skin’s surface.

Breast Implants -Your Choices

Dr. Suzanne M. Quardt, or Dr. Q as she is known to her patients, is an aesthetic fellowship trained, board certified plastic surgeon. She provides state of the art cosmetic surgery procedures for the breast, body and face at her Rancho Mirage office. Patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert and surrounding areas have an opportunity to receive advanced surgical procedures from Dr. Q. She has earned a number of recognitions for her contributions as a cosmetic surgeon. She has also been featured in national publications such as New Beauty Magazine and Plastic Surgery Practice.

Breast Augmentation

Breast augmentation surgery has become one of the most sought after cosmetic surgery procedures in recent years. With improved qualities of breast implants, it is possible to achieve fuller breasts with a natural look and feel. Dr. Q provides both saline and silicone gel breast implant options to her patients and helps them make appropriate choices according to their aesthetic needs.

Breast augmentation is not only useful from a cosmetic perspective to enhance the size of breasts, but it may also help restore breasts following a mastectomy or breast tissue injury. Moderate conditions of asymmetrical breasts may also be corrected with breast implants. Patients in and around Palm Springs and Palm Desert can receive breast implant surgery from Dr. Q using the latest qualities of implants.

Breast Lift

For some women, the breast size may be appropriate, but the breasts may droop heavily due to aging, heredity, gravity, weight loss or other factors. In such cases, breast lift surgery may be an effective way to raise the breasts to make them appear firmer and more youthful. If the nipples are pointing downwards, the plastic surgeon may reposition the nipples and areolas to a more appropriate location.

In some cases, Dr. Q may recommend a combination of breast augmentation and breast lift surgery for her patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, and nearby areas. Breast lift surgery may also be used to reduce the size of areolas if they have become excessively enlarged.

Silicone vs Saline Implants

Saline implants are filled with a saline solution, while silicone implants are filled with silicone gel. Both types of implants are FDA approved and used widely by patients looking to enhance their breast appearance with plastic surgery. Saline implants have an advantage that in case of implant rupture, the saline solution is naturally absorbed in the body because it is a biocompatible filler. However, the look, touch, and feel of saline implants may not appeal to some patients who are looking for more aesthetic results.

As an experienced cosmetic surgeon for breast implants, Dr. Q recommends advanced qualities of silicone implants in such cases. The advantage with silicone implants is that they mimic the natural breast tissue more closely in look, touch, and feel. Dr. Q has introduced highly cohesive gel based Sientra silicone implants to her patients in Palm Springs and Palm Desert.

These advanced quality implants are very safe because the silicone gel contained in the implant is so highly viscous that it does not seep through the implant shell even in the case of an implant rupture. Highly cohesive gel makes the implant aesthetically superior and safer at the same time. Only trained or board certified plastic surgeons can get access to Sientra implants. Dr. Q makes sure that her patients receive only FDA approved implant qualities for long term effectiveness and safety.

Other Implant Types

Sientra implants are based on Gummy Bear implant technology, which makes use of highly cohesive silicone gel for best results. Dr. Q makes an endeavor to provide the latest, proven, and cutting-edge technologies to her patients so that they can achieve desired outcomes in the most effective ways. Sientra is one of the latest introductions at Dr. Q’s office.

The other quality of implants available with Dr. Q is Allergan Natrelle. Natrelle breast implants are produced by Allergan, Inc., which is a renowned, California-based company producing innovative medical products and devices, including Botox and Juvederm dermal filler. Allergan Natrelle is an advanced cohesive gel implant that Dr. Q provides at her practice.

LIFT AND TIGHTEN THE FACE AND NECK WITHOUT SURGERY

OR DOWN TIME WITH ULTHERAPY

Ultherapy is a revolutionary, non-invasive treatment designed to fight the signs of aging in our skin by stimulating the body’s natural production of collagen. The collagen in our skin helps it to stay firm, toned and elastic. Sadly, as we age, our collagen levels decrease, causing the skin to lose elasticity and succumb to the effects of gravity, allowing our skin to sag as it is pulled downward. Ultherapy uses the safe power of ultrasound to trigger our skin to create new, fresh collagen that can stand up to gravity and give the face and neck a firm, uplifted look. Dr. Suzanne Quardt is a Board-Certified plastic surgeon with years of experience with both surgical and non-surgical approaches to body contouring and anti-aging treatments. “Dr. Q”, as she is affectionately called by her patients, will listen carefully to your aesthetic concerns, and will design a customized Ultherapy treatment plan to ensure that your aesthetic goals are fulfilled.

What is Forever Young BBL?

BBL or BroadBand Light is an innovative non-invasive technology to reduce the signs of aging and achieve skin rejuvenation without the need for plastic surgery.

Forever Young BBL Anti Aging Before and After Photos:

Anti Aging Treatment - Palm Springs | Palm Desert | Rancho Mirage Forever Young BBL

Unlike many other non-invasive treatments, the broad range of wavelengths of Forever Young BBL enable precise treatment of a number of skin conditions without the requirement of additional equipment. The system includes flexible Finesse Adapters that allow for treatment in hard to reach areas. This ensures even looking results throughout the treated area.

BBL technology has received clearance from the FDA for the treatment of several skin conditions such as benign pigmented lesions, cutaneous lesions, cutaneous vascular lesions, hair reduction, and pustular inflammatory acne vulgaris. The treatment has not yet been FDA cleared for changing gene expression or anti-aging. However, there is already scientific evidence available to suggest that regular maintenance treatment with Forever Young BBL can delay the aging process of the skin and functionally rejuvenate skin.

Stanford Study on BBL Effectiveness

A study titled “Rejuvenation of Gene Expression Pattern of Aged Human Skin by Broadband Light Treatment” led by dermatologist Dr. Anne Lynn S. Chang of the Stanford University School of Medicine became the first scientific study to demonstrate that BBL therapy can restore gene expression pattern of aging skin to resemble younger looking skin. More than a thousand gene expressions became rejuvenated, as observed in the study. They resembled youthful skin due to reduced elastosis and a more evenly distributed collagen deposition. Improvements in pigmentation and fine wrinkles were visible.

The study, which was published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, supported the hypothesis that aging regulators can be altered in the skin with the help of BBL technology to induce a functional change, and not just a cosmetic appearance of youthful skin. The study indicated that the appearance of youthful skin could be due to the differences observed in gene expression patterns of aging skin resembling more like younger skin. Treatments from the study were performed on the FDA cleared Sciton Joule employing the BBL module.

The results of the study revealed that the molecular changes that are promoted by BBL treatment can help improve the appearance of sun spots, acne, freckles and several vascular conditions. Patients in Palm Desert, Palm Springs, and other places who are looking for alternatives to a cosmetic surgeon’s treatments may consider Forever Young BBL technology. Many patients are already asking for BBL treatment to promote a rejuvenated and youthful looking appearance. Dr. Chang’s is the first study to show the effects of BBL on human skin, though previously its effectiveness has already been demonstrated on animal skin.

Advantages of Forever Young BBL

Forever Young BBL is the only technology that has been demonstrated to have caused the change of expression in genes associated with longevity, aging and increased lifespan. This non-invasive treatment adopts a radically different approach from other treatments, including various plastic surgery procedures. With regular treatment sessions with Forever Young BBL, the patient’s skin can continue to look smoother, clearer and more youthful.

The treatment does not involve any downtime, and the patient is ready to resume his or her regular routine immediately. This makes it a treatment of choice for working people and busy moms who are reluctant to choose traditional cosmetic surgery treatments because of the potential risks and recovery period involves. Results with BBL treatment are long lasting, and studies have included patients who received treatment 10 years ago or even earlier.

Unlike a typical surgery procedure from a plastic surgeon, the BBL treatment time is much shorter. The procedure does not involve anesthesia or IV sedation, and the patient can remain comfortable throughout the treatment session. The average treatment time for the full face is about 15 minutes. The treatment is effective on all areas of the body.

Patient Reviews for Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Suzanne Quardt – Palm Springs | Palm Desert | Rancho Mirage

by Heidi C., Twentynine Palms, CA

After a number of consultations, I decided to have my breast augmentation done by Dr. Q. There were a ton of contributing factors to my selection of surgeon, but what was most important to me was how comfortable she made me feel. I have a fear of doctors and hospitals, but this was a procedure I had wanted for years. Through education and much patience she helped me decide what type, profile and size was good for me. The COMPLIMENTARY consultation took almost an hour and a half. I never felt rushed through an appointment. Since the surgery she has done numerous follow ups which made me feel much more at ease. I got the exact look I wanted. Included with the BA was Botox provided by the breast implant company. I was sure there would be some catch. Like a surgeon fee or something. NO catch free Botox for me and a friend. The Botox turned out absolutely perfect. It looks very natural and now I have no wrinkles.

Incredible experience.

Incredible experience. She talked with me to find out not only what I wanted but to suggest some options. I thought I knew what I wanted but took her recommendations and was overjoyed at the results. I am currently 3 months out from the date of surgery. Highly recommend Dr. Q!

Great Experience & Results!

Dr. Quardt is very professional, gentle and compassionate. I researched other doctors in the area and was happy with how thorough she was even taking measurements and checking for symetry. After nursing my 3 kids and losing 57 pounds over the course of the years, my breasts looked like an old woman in a young body. I was not looking to have huge breasts, but just to be full again and not sag. She took the time to hear my concerns and answer them prior to having a mastoplexy and breast augmentation. After my procedure, she called me while I was recovering to check on me and make sure I was doing okay. I always had questions for her and she was kind enough to put my mind at ease. Each time I go into her office for my post-op check-ups, she takes the time to answer any questions I have. Dr. Q. helped make me feel like a beautiful woman again!

Great Experience
by A. Holford

Dr. Quardt is extremely capable, smart, professional, funny and warm. i would and have recommended her to friends. i am so pleased with the entire experience and even more pleased with the results.

Patient Reviews for Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Suzanne Quardt – Palm Springs | Palm Desert | Rancho Mirage

By Christine D., Encinitas, CA

My mother lives in Palm Springs and visits Dr. Q for her “lift-ups & touch-ups” as she calls them. As far as my mom goes, she looks beautiful and never “over-done.” She loves Dr. Q because she says she feels very comfortable and confident that the Doctor won’t make her look unnatural.

Last time I came out and visited, my mom talked me into coming with her to her appointment. The office is beautiful and not “doctor’s office-y” at all. There are beautiful chandeliers and furniture, but it didn’t feel snobby. The woman at the front desk was beautiful and very friendly and welcoming. I wasn’t planning on having anything done, but the Doctor and her staff told me about the light chemical peels. I saw before and after photos, and decided to go for it. The staff made me feel extremely comfortable. In the next few days, I noticed my skin to be much smoother and the freckles I’ve acquired from my years in sunny California have dramatically lightened.

I was very hesitant about ever having something cosmetic done, but Doctor Q changed my view on it. If I was to ever do anything again, I would definitely want to go back to her. I think being a woman, she just somehow understood my concerns and nervousness more.

Thank you!

By Charissa F., Palm Desert, CA

I have seen Dr. Quardt now for over five years. I consider it “repairs and maintenance”. I think she is nothing short of amazing. I started with surgery and then maintained with fillers, botox and laser. I think it has greatly decreased the signs of aging, has given me great confidence, and increased my motivation to take care of myself. I feel good about myself inside and out. Dr. Quardt is trained in the latest and greatest techniques and is a highly regarded surgeon (she was Chief of Plastics at Eisenhower.) She is compassionate and caring and can relate to her patients. I talked to several doctors and evaluated them and my comfort level closely before I chose one. Please feel free to contact me if you wish to speak to me directly for a reference.

by monique r., Los Angeles, CA

It has now been almost 3 months since my surgery and my recovery is going way better than anyone has ever seen. I have a large group of friends, a few of which have had breast reductions and they still have major scarring. Mine is almost completely gone. This is hard to imagine because I have dark skin and usually we scar worse than others. At this rate, by summer I will not be able to see any scars at all. I also have full feeling and sensitivity. Sooo glad I chose Dr. Quardt.

by Stephen P., Palm Springs, CA

LOVE LOVE LOVE Dr Quardt. I do only visit for Botox but I find her friendly, kind, professional and skillful at her work. I would see her for something more if I ever feel the need.
