What Is Awake Liposuction?
Awake liposuction is a minimally invasive fat-removal procedure performed under local anesthesia. You stay comfortable and alert — no general anesthesia, no breathing tubes, and a faster recovery compared to traditional liposuction.
At New Viva MD, the procedure is physician-performed by Dr. Surkunte, targeting stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Common treatment areas include the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, and chin.
