Re_shape your figure with precise liposuction performed by double board-certified cosmetic surgeon, Dr. Babak Moeinolmolki. Performing services in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills with state-of-the-art fat reduction techniques and 24-hour recovery methods.
Liposuction is Los Angeles' most sought-after cosmetic surgery solution to eliminate persistent fat deposits that defy diet and exercise. It's a minimally invasive surgery that reshapes and trims your body shape, permanently removing fat cells from predefined sections such as the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, and chin.
Unlike weight reduction programs, liposuction is about precise body contouring to achieve optimal shape naturally. Dr. Moein blends state-of-the-art technology with artistic vision to create natural-looking results that complement your unique shape.
Reveal a new shape to your body like our delighted Los Angeles patients. Experience dramatic transformations accomplished with Dr. Moein's advanced liposuction methods.
Moein Surgical Arts offers specialized advanced liposuction procedures to shape and redefine the shape of several areas of the body with utmost precision. If you have pesky fat on or near the chin, arms, stomach, thighs, back, or love handles, Dr. Babak Moein will customize the surgery to fit the shape of you for natural-looking, balanced results. With the most advanced technology and minimally intrusive techniques, we aim to refine the shape of the body, increase skin definition, and rejuvenate your self-confidence. From removing the double chin to getting that snatched waist line with smooth curves, personalized results mean you get the figure you've always wanted, all conducted with safety at our Los Angeles surgery suite.
Eliminate bra bulge and back rolls distorting clothing fit. Upper, middle back, and lumbar contours create smooth lines that enhance overall shape.
Trim excess flank fat that makes your waistline wider. "Waist snatching" surgeries performed by Dr. Moein produce radical hourglass or V-shaped silhouettes that define your natural body shape.
Double chin removal improves facial outline and definition of the jawline dramatically. It is a non-invasive surgery performed under local anesthesia with immediate results.
Arm contouring reduces fat regardless of skin elasticity. Skin contraction can be performed in conjunction with fat removal if required to achieve maximum results.
Our most requested procedure continues to be abdominal liposuction. Midsection is contoured by Dr. Moein to achieve natural muscle definition and proportionate balance. Frequently paired with tummy tuck for a complete new abdominal shape.
Thigh contouring or reshaping inner and outer thighs eliminates chafing and achieves sophisticated leg lines. State-of-the-art techniques treat both shallow and deep fat layers to achieve smooth natural effects.
Consideration | Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL) | Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL / VASER) | Laser-Assisted Liposuction |
---|---|---|---|
Benefits | High precision and control; ideal for smaller or delicate areas. Fat is broken up and removed simultaneously in one step. | Great for fibrous or scarred tissue; helps tighten skin slightly. Preserves surrounding nerves and blood vessels. | Melts fat using heat; may aid in skin tightening. Effective in areas previously treated or with dense tissue. |
Side Effects | Minimal trauma to surrounding tissue; less bruising and swelling due to gentle vibration. | Possible swelling and mild discomfort; low thermal risk with modern systems like VASER. | Risk of skin burns due to thermal energy; may cause scarring and prolonged inflammation. |
Recovery | Faster recovery due to less tissue damage; many resume activities within days. | Moderate recovery; swelling and bruising may take a couple of weeks to resolve. | Longer recovery; heat-related side effects can extend downtime beyond a week. |
Limitations | May be less effective in areas with scar tissue from previous surgeries. | Requires slightly larger incisions due to equipment size. May not be ideal for very small or delicate areas. | Typically less effective for removing large fat volumes. Usually requires a second step to suction out melted fat. |
Here at Moein Surgical Arts, we think people should be comfortable in their own skin. A skinner, tighter appearance is a goal for some people, and in some cases, it's a procedure that might need a pro's guidance.
Whether addressing recalcitrant fat on smaller locations such as around the chin or neck or addressing wider locations such as around the midline area, arm area, thigh area, love handles area, or back area, we provide tailored body contouring treatments in accordance with your shape and objectives. Every procedure is carefully designed to create naturally appearing proportionate results that improve your shape without compromising your distinctiveness.
Dr. Babak Moeinolmolki is double board-eligible in cosmetic and general surgery and is one of Los Angeles' premier liposuction experts. With a specialization in cutting-edge body contouring, his practice ensures maximum results with minimum downtime.
Proven Track Record
Ideal liposuction patients in Los Angeles possess these characteristics:
✓ Good Overall Health - Lack of major illness that will disrupt healing
✓ Near Ideal Weight - within 20-30 pounds of desired weight
✓ Stuborn fat spots - Exercise and diet didn't decrease some deposits of fat
✓ Good Skin Elasticity - Skin can contract once fat has been removed
✓ Realistic Expectations - Recognize liposuction improves but does not substitute good lifestyle
✓ Non-Smoker - or willing to refrain 4+ weeks prior to surgery
Dr. Moein will give you instructions on how to prepare for your liposuction surgery. You will receive a full medical workup and care plan. This may include blood tests, medication adjustments, and a list of medications to avoid.
Dr. Moein will also create a pain management plan before surgery. This plan considers your experience with pain medication, risk of opioid addiction, expected discomfort, and your pain tolerance. Most patients use a combination of prescription and over-the-counter medications, though many find over-the-counter options are enough. Avoid non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like Aspirin, Motrin, and Ibuprofen, as well as other blood thinners.
All patients must stop smoking at least four weeks before surgery. Smoking can affect healing and impact your final results. Dr. Moein offers smoking cessation support at his clinic. You may also be asked not to eat or drink after midnight the night before surgery. Make sure all your medical questions are reviewed—this is an important part of your relationship with your surgeon.

Recovery Support:
At Moein Surgical Arts, our longstanding dedication to the art and science of body sculpting is epitomized by our expertise in tumescent liposuction. Recognized as a cornerstone in the world of aesthetic enhancements, tumescent liposuction requires a blend of technical proficiency and artistic vision. Our seasoned team, underpinned by years of hands-on experience, has mastered this traditional method, ensuring a safe and effective approach.
By infusing the targeted area with a specialized saline solution, we meticulously prepare the fat for removal, ensuring minimal discomfort and reduced post-operative swelling for our patients. Our deep-rooted experience with this technique has allowed us to refine our procedures over the years, producing consistently harmonious results that speak to the body's natural contours.
Laser liposuction represents a fusion of technological advancement with traditional body sculpting techniques. This method goes beyond merely extracting fat by harnessing the power of targeted laser energy. The laser works at a cellular level, breaking up the fat cells and rendering them nonviable for future use, especially in transplantation procedures. This is a distinctive feature that sets laser liposuction apart. Beyond this, the laser also promotes collagen production in the treated area, potentially leading to improved skin tightening and a smoother post-procedure appearance.
However, the precision required in laser liposuction, from ensuring even fat breakdown to preventing excessive heat damage, necessitates a surgeon with specialized training and a profound understanding of the technology and the human anatomy. In the hands of a skilled practitioner, laser liposuction can offer transformative results that combine efficient fat reduction with enhanced skin quality.
VASER liposuction is a testament to the advancements in aesthetic medicine, offering precise fat removal with less trauma to the surrounding tissues. VASER technology uses ultrasonic waves to liquefy targeted fat cells while preserving vital structures like blood vessels, nerves, and connective tissue. This meticulous approach requires a specialized set of skills and in-depth knowledge of the technology. The training for VASER lipo goes beyond traditional techniques. VASER also makes HD Lipo possible and affordable.
Additionally, the expertise to sculpt the body using VASER requires an artistic touch, balancing technological prowess with a vision for the body's natural aesthetics. The results possible with VASER can be remarkably refined and smooth, but achieving such outcomes hinges on the surgeon's comprehensive training and dedicated experience. Opting for a practitioner well-versed in VASER technology ensures a harmonious blend of cutting-edge technique and timeless artistry in body contouring.
Awake liposuction is transforming body contouring by providing a safer, more accessible alternative for individuals wary of general anesthesia. By eliminating the need for full sedation, patients reduce their risk of anesthesia-related complications, making the procedure suitable for a wider range of candidates. This approach appeals especially to those seeking a more conservative yet effective method for fat removal and body sculpting.
Another key advantage of awake liposuction is the opportunity for real-time communication between the patient and surgeon. This allows for immediate feedback and refinements during the procedure, resulting in more personalized outcomes. Patients also tend to experience a faster, more comfortable recovery with less grogginess and fewer side effects. Additionally, the overall cost of the procedure can be lower due to the absence of anesthesia fees, making it a practical option for many.
This is for the discerning people seeking Liposuction in Los Angeles and Southern California. Offered for those who demand the best.
Our promise:
While liposuction has seen a significant rise in popularity in recent years, excellent results are not always guaranteed. Achieving the best possible outcome requires selecting a highly skilled and experienced surgeon. Dr. Babak Moein of Moein Surgical Arts brings extensive expertise in liposuction and is committed to transparency throughout the process. He takes pride in setting realistic expectations and consistently delivering superior results tailored to each patient's goals.
With years of experience helping both men and women transform their bodies, Dr. Moein combines his dual fellowship training in general surgery and cosmetic surgery to offer a truly comprehensive approach. His depth of knowledge in weight loss, body contouring, and aesthetic enhancement makes him uniquely qualified to guide patients through their surgical journey. Alongside his dedicated and highly trained team, Dr. Moein has helped thousands of patients in Los Angeles and beyond achieve their desired physique. As a board-certified surgeon in both general and cosmetic surgery, he offers the highest level of expertise to address a wide range of aesthetic and health-related concerns.
Liposuction can be a highly effective tool for sculpting the body and enhancing overall proportions, but it is not intended as a weight loss solution. Instead, liposuction is best suited for removing localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. Many patients choose liposuction to improve body contours, achieve a more balanced silhouette, and feel more confident in their clothing.
However, it is important to maintain realistic expectations. Liposuction does not treat loose or sagging skin and is not a substitute for a healthy lifestyle. If excess skin—particularly around the abdomen—is a concern, Dr. Moein may recommend combining liposuction with a tummy tuck or mini tummy tuck to achieve optimal results.
The cost of liposuction can vary significantly depending on the treatment areas, the complexity of the procedure, and the type of anesthesia used. On average, patients can expect to invest between $4,000 and $15,000. For the most accurate pricing, it is best to schedule a personalized consultation with Dr. Babak Moein, where all aspects of the procedure—including associated fees—will be thoroughly discussed.
At Healthy Life Bariatrics, we understand that cost is an important consideration. That’s why we offer a variety of financing options to help make liposuction more affordable. Our experienced team can guide you through available payment plans and ensure you understand all potential expenses, including any follow-up appointments or additional services that may be recommended.
To explore your options with liposuction, we invite you to request a consultation online or contact our office directly to schedule an appointment with Dr. Moein.
As with most cosmetic procedures, recovery and visible results from liposuction can vary from patient to patient. While you may notice an immediate improvement in your body’s contour following the procedure, residual swelling can obscure the final outcome. It typically takes several weeks to a few months for the majority of the swelling to subside, with final results becoming fully apparent within six months to one year.
Once the swelling diminishes, your newly contoured shape will be more clearly defined. It is important to note that while the fat cells removed during liposuction do not grow back, remaining fat cells can still expand with weight gain. For this reason, maintaining a healthy lifestyle—including a balanced diet and regular exercise—is essential to preserving your results over the long term.
Liposuction is typically associated with minimal scarring, particularly when performed by an experienced surgeon using advanced techniques. Dr. Moein’s expertise in minimally invasive surgery and the use of small, precision cannulas help ensure that any incisions are discreet and result in minimal visible scarring. These incisions are carefully placed in hidden or natural creases of the body to further reduce their appearance.
Additionally, Dr. Moein employs modern liposuction technologies that help preserve skin integrity and promote smooth, even results. While minor skin irregularities may occur in some cases, they are rare and often temporary. During your consultation, Dr. Moein will assess your skin elasticity and overall anatomy to develop a customized plan that minimizes risk and enhances your outcome.
As with any surgical procedure, liposuction carries some degree of risk. However, serious complications are rare—particularly when the procedure is performed by a highly qualified and experienced surgeon. Potential risks may include infection, bleeding, fluid accumulation, nerve injury, or irregular contours, but these occurrences are uncommon and often preventable with proper surgical technique and post-operative care.
The majority of complications tend to arise when liposuction is performed by inexperienced or unqualified providers. Choosing a board-certified cosmetic surgeon like Dr. Babak Moein, who specializes in advanced body contouring procedures, greatly reduces your risk. Dr. Moein follows strict safety protocols and provides detailed pre- and post-operative instructions to ensure the safest possible outcome.
By selecting a skilled specialist and adhering closely to all medical guidance, patients can undergo liposuction with confidence and peace of mind.
Discomfort following liposuction is expected but generally manageable and varies depending on the technique used and the type of anesthesia administered. Most patients experience the greatest soreness within the first 2 to 4 days after the procedure. Tenderness and mild discomfort may persist for 3 to 4 weeks but typically improve steadily as the body heals.
Dr. Moein takes every precaution to ensure patient comfort throughout the process. A personalized pain management plan will be provided prior to your surgery to help minimize discomfort during recovery. By closely following this plan and adhering to post-operative instructions, patients can significantly reduce their recovery time and improve their overall experience.
Yes, wearing a compression garment is an essential part of the recovery process following liposuction. These specially designed garments help reduce post-operative swelling and bruising, support the healing tissues, and improve overall contouring results. By applying gentle, consistent pressure, the garment aids in skin retraction and promotes more uniform healing.
Dr. Moein recommends that patients wear their compression garments for a minimum of four weeks after surgery. This period allows for optimal reduction in swelling and contributes to a smoother, more refined final outcome. Adhering to this recommendation is a key factor in achieving the best possible liposuction results.
Before undergoing liposuction in Los Angeles, you will have a personalized, one-on-one consultation with Dr. Babak Moein to determine the most effective approach for your cosmetic goals. During this consultation, Dr. Moein will review your medical history, address your concerns, and evaluate several key factors to create a customized surgical plan, including:
