Liposuction Surgery in Wilmington, NC
Amelia Wilmington Specializes in Liposuction.
Liposuction is a popular cosmetic surgery that effectively removes stubborn fat from various areas of the body, helping to contour and reshape your figure. This procedure is ideal for individuals who struggle with localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise.
By targeting specific areas such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, arms, and back, liposuction can enhance your body’s proportions and improve your overall appearance.
At Amelia Aesthetics in Wilmington, NC, plastic surgeon Dr. Anthony Azzolini utilizes advanced techniques to ensure a safe and efficient treatment. Liposuction works by permanently removing fat cells through small incisions, which are strategically placed to minimize visible scarring.
Recovery typically involves a short downtime, allowing most patients to return to normal activities within a week or two.
This procedure is not intended for weight loss but rather for sculpting the body. For those looking to achieve a more defined silhouette, liposuction can be combined with other surgeries, such as tummy tucks, to maximize results.
If you're considering liposuction in Wilmington, NC, Dr. Azzolini and the team at Amelia Aesthetics are here to guide you through your journey. Amelia Wilmington offers financing options and personalized care to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.

Much, but not all of the swelling has resolved for most, and often when your “after photos” are taken. - 12 Months
