Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo technique

You’re at the gym and inspired by all the hard bodies around you, you work hard putting in the extra reps and sets. You’ve been doing this for some time now, and though there are changes to your body, it seems that you’re still nowhere near the physique you desire.

The stubborn fat seemed determined to cling on despite all your hard work and effort. Most of us experience areas of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise, and it can be frustrating when nothing seems to shift these stubborn fatty deposits.

Established in 2004, our forte lies in body sculpting. We provide a comprehensive range of contouring and fat reduction treatments including Liposuction.

What is Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique?

Dr Ivan Puah's MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo technique is a multi-dimensional contouring approach customised to work on each individual's unique body shape, fat anatomy, fat distribution and skin laxity.

Localised stubborn fat that fails to respond to exercise or diet is removed, while body sculpting is carried out simultaneously.

Considering that surgical scarring is a concern for patients, Dr Ivan Puah will keep the incision scars to the bare minimum by strategically creating incisions to allow efficient access to the three layers of fat.

This approach encourages better skin retraction, which traditional liposuction fails to deliver. Results from Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo technique are natural and well-shaped.

The versatility of the MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo technique enables Dr Ivan Puah to perform a comprehensive 360-degree fat removal and sculpting for the common troubled zones such as the abdomen and waists for natural and optimal results for patients.

What is the difference between Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique and traditional liposuction?

Both liposuction and modern liposuction accomplish the same objective: to remove excess fat and contour the body.

Dr Ivan Puah's Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo technique utilises customised cannulas of varied sizes and smaller suction tubings, involving incisions less than 4mm, and the patient is under twilight sedation while the area is anaesthetised locally. He carefully manoeuvres his tools and targets the fat layers multi-dimensionally, removing unwanted fat while sculpting the area and encouraging skin tightening simultaneously.

On the other hand, traditional liposuction incorporates larger tubings and cannulas while the patient is under local or general anaesthesia. Additionally, the surgeon scrapes and sucks fat tissues by mechanical means. This may lead to irregular skin contour and other complications.

Which area can be treated with Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique?

• Face
• Double Chin
• Arms (Upper Arms) & Armpits
• Female Breasts (Only Fat Reduction, Not Full Mastectomy)
• Outer and Inner Thighs
• Knees
• Upper and Mid Back
• Muffin Top (Abdomen Or Waist)
• Love Handles (Waist)
• Enlarged Male Breasts (Gynecomastia)
• Pseudogynecomastia
• Calves
• Back

Who is an ideal candidate for modern liposuction with Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique?

This procedure is suitable for both women and men with stubborn localised fat that fails to respond despite working out and eating a well-balanced diet. It is also ideal for those with disproportionate body shape and seeking corrective measures to improve it. It is not a tool meant for weight loss.

The most suitable candidates are those who maintain an ideal weight range, do not go on yoyo dieting, practice a healthy lifestyle and do not present with any major pre-existing medical conditions.

How long is the surgery?

Depending on the body regions and the number of areas to be treated, the surgery may generally take between 1.5 and 3.5 hours.

Does Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique permanently remove fat?

Yes, results from this procedure are considered permanent due to the unique nature of the fat cells. Fat removed from the treated area will not grow back.

New fat cells can develop if you gain a considerable amount of weight, such as 10kg. If you gain a small amount of weight, the existing fat cells will merely get bigger from the new fat accumulation. The existing fat cells can shrink when one goes on a diet or exercises the consumed calories away. A healthy lifestyle and weight maintenance are recommended to help your results last.

How soon will I see results?

As the procedure involves suctioning the fat, you can expect immediate improvement. However, post-surgery tissue swelling will set in soon after. Patience is the key to appreciating the full contouring results between 3 and 6 months.

During the consultation, our doctor will discuss in detail with you on the expected results before the procedure and throughout the aftercare appointments.

How much weight can I lose with Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique?

It is not meant for weight loss but to contour and sculpt your body, removing fat that does not respond to diet and exercise.

Does fat return in the treated areas, even if I do not gain weight?

If no weight is gained after the liposuction surgery, there will not be any fat build-up in the treated area. Do note that liposuction cannot retard the ageing process. It is natural for the fat pockets to change as one gets older. Nonetheless, the liposuction result will still be evident despite the ageing process.

How much fat can be removed?

In Singapore, liposuction is strictly regulated by the Ministry of Health Singapore. Any amount greater than 2 litres removed in a single procedure can result in a higher risk of complications. It is best to stagger the procedure schedule for those who require more fat removal.

Will Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique improve my postpartum tummy?

Losing postpartum fat on the tummy and waist is always a concern for new mums. If you have any such concerns, schedule an appointment with Dr Ivan Puah. During the consultation, he will assess the degree of your skin laxity, body shape, and presence of scar tissues such as C-sec scars and stretch marks. He will then discuss how he can help you achieve your desired results.

To successfully and effectively treat the abdomen and waist, Dr Ivan Puah may propose to perform a comprehensive 360-degree fat removal and sculpting on these troubled zones. Doing so not only creates a natural curvature with visible results but also assists mummies in tightening loose skin and improving scarring (if any).

I have liposuction done elsewhere and I have dents and bulges. What can I do?

Botched liposuction is surprisingly very common and often results from incomplete liposuction (under-correction), with bulges of fat behind, leaving the patient looking more disproportionate than before. Other reasons could be excessive liposuction (overcorrection) that creates unevenness, irregular contouring, and unsightly depressions, causing disfigurement in the treated areas. Large, dark, and dented scars and folds can also result from poorly done liposuction jobs.

Dr Ivan Puah has been performing corrective (revision) surgeries over the years, incorporating his proprietary approach to treat these issues. If you are one of the victims of poorly done liposuction surgery, you have a choice not to live with these disfigurements for life.

Is it necessary to wear a compression garment post-surgery?

Donning on a compression garment for a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks will help to compress tissue swelling and hasten the recovery.

How much does Modern Liposuction with MDC-Sculpt®️ Lipo Technique cost in Singapore?

In general, Dr Ivan Puah's fees are based on his experience, body regions involved, degree of skin laxity, and the complexity of the surgery.

‍Liposuction is not just about removing unwanted fat. The doctor's skill sets and eyes for aesthetics are vital to creating that desired natural-looking face or body contour. Each face and body part is different and requires experienced hands to sculpt positive cosmetic results.

Other charges include the type of anaesthesia used, hospital or surgical facility costs, medical tests such as blood tests, post-surgery garments, pre and post-medication, etc.

Any tips on maintaining my liposuction results?

Maintaining an ideal weight and staying active is the best way to keep your liposuction results. Adopt these healthy lifestyle tips by Dr Ivan Puah:

• Eat the rainbows. Include fruits and vegetables from each colour group to get your body's essential nutrients and vitamins.

• Don't eat more than you should. Keep the snacks away when you are working or watching TV. Most often, you eat because you are bored.

• Eat less but eat more protein and healthy carbs.

• Move. Your body burns calories even when you sleep, so move more to burn more!

Dr Ivan Puah is an accredited liposuction doctor in Singapore with over 17 years of body sculpting experience. He has completed fundamental and advanced body sculpting surgical training conducted by Dr John Millard and Dr Alfredo Hoyos.

He is the Chairman of Lipo Peer Review Committee in Singapore and has developed two proprietary surgical approaches- 360° Glandular Tissue Dissection (360°GTD®) technique for gynecomastia surgery and MDC-Sculpt® lipo technique for liposuction. He has received dedicated surgical training in gynecomastia surgery in the United States of America.

Having trained to perform liposuction is only the beginning. Dr Ivan Puah believes it is crucial to understand and master the technicalities of the procedure, including the potential complications that may arise. To be meticulous in approach, with a detailed overview and foresight capabilities are essential must-haves for a doctor.

Finding the right doctor with an aesthetic sense is essential in achieving the desired outcome in terms of silhouette and true results.

The artist's skill, experience, appreciation and understanding of the body aesthetic separate a masterpiece from an average piece of work.
