What Is Liposuction?
If you've worked hard to lose weight only to be frustrated by stubborn pockets of fat that just won't disappear, you're not alone. Many individuals struggle with those extra pounds that don't seem to respond to diet and exercise. Maglic Plastic Surgery is proud to offer the latest methods to effectively eliminate fat from the body. VASER® ultrasound-assisted liposuction is an advanced body contouring treatment that reduces pockets of fat from the sides, tummy, buttocks, and thighs to create a slimmer appearance with minimal side effects compared to traditional liposuction. Our Draper, UT practice can even enhance your results with Renuvion® nonsurgical skin tightening to eliminate sagging or wrinkled skin around the treatment area for a tighter overall look. Schedule your private consultation with Dr. Dino Maglic to discuss your areas of concern so we can help you attain your personal goals. We want to help you look and feel your absolute best.
What Can I Expect During VASER® Liposuction?
VASER® ultrasound-assisted liposuction is performed at our Draper, UT facility using anesthesia to keep you comfortable. Once you're prepared, Dr. Maglic will inject a saline solution into the treatment area before inserting the VASER® probes. The probes emit ultrasound energy to break up deposits of fat, which is then gently suctioned out through a cannula (a hollow surgical tube). Once the liposuction procedure is complete, the Renuvion® handpiece will be inserted under the skin. This innovative skin tightening solution combines radiofrequency (RF) energy and helium to create plasma under the surface, tightening loose or saggy skin. As your skin heals over time, the increased production of collagen and elastin will create a more toned appearance and smoother texture.

Maglić Plastic Surgery Reviews
I had liposuction with shaping and contouring done 6 weeks ago and I could not be more happy. He did exactly what I asked for. And was also honest about what was reasonable. He had a great bedside manner and shares my sense of humor. The office staff is all so nice and welcoming. Dr Maglic explained everything in detail so I knew exactly what to expect. Day of surgery went so well. I couldn’t have asked for a better OR staff and experience. Day after surgery was a Saturday and Dr Maglic came in at 8am for my day after follow up. I was expecting to only see the nurse. I would recommend him to anyone looking for any type of cosmetic surgery.
Dino gave me my body back! He did my mommy makeover in December of 2022 during his residency and I could not have had better results! He is truly gifted in his craft. I also had the privilege of working with him in the operating room and every time he would do a procedure the attention to detail was second to none, I knew he was the surgeon for me when I saw the results of his other patients. I wanted this procedure for the last 3 years and had consults with other surgeons, but never felt like they were seeing ME as an individual and my wants, but when I went to see Dino for my consultation, he addressed every question and concern I had, before I even asked. I was so impressed with his bedside. We did an implant removal, mastopexy, abdominoplasty, axillary roll removal, liposuction of the flanks and midline. I have worked with many surgeons during my career in the OR and Dino has the best energy in his OR, if he has to go to plan B or something unexpected comes up, he is calm and decisive and can pivot and adjust the plan to your individual needs. He is truly an artist and anybody that picks him as their surgeon will not only get a true artist, but also a surgeon that is genuine and truly cares about you!
I had the incredible fortune of working alongside Dr. Maglic for five years. During that time, I witnessed firsthand his incomparable passion and drive as a plastic surgeon. His impressive accomplishments and the outstanding outcomes he delivered to his patients are truly remarkable. It was an easy decision for me to choose him as my surgeon. He provided an unparalleled level of care, ensuring that I felt safe and that my needs were heard. My chin and armpit liposuction procedures were a resounding success, with a speedy recovery and non-invasive techniques that made a significant improvement in my appearance and boosted my confidence. I cannot recommend Dr. Maglic enough. His exceptional care and excellent results have not only transformed my appearance but also boosted my self-esteem. Thank you, Dr. Maglic, for your dedication and for making a positive difference in my life.

Is Liposuction Right for Me?
Liposuction is a terrific procedure for individuals who are at a healthy weight but have stubborn pockets of fat that are difficult to rid of with even the most healthy lifestyle. Men and women interested in liposuction should have skin that is taut because liposuction does not address stretched-out skin. It is also important to understand that liposuction is not a solution for losing weight. Women having liposuction should have childbearing behind them as this could compromise the lasting outcome. At the time of your consultation for surgery, Dr. Maglic will discuss realistic expectations.

Liposuction FAQ
How much does liposuction cost?
The cost of liposuction will vary based on the technique selected and the amount of areas being addressed. In your consultation, Dr. Maglic will develop your unique liposuction surgical plan to meet your needs and goals. He will also take into consideration your budget. Once your plan is ready, estimated costs can be discussed. To make your cosmetic surgery affordable, Maglic Plastic Surgery takes many payment methods, and we can help you find low-interest medical financing.
What about cellulite and loose skin?
Surgical liposuction only addresses excess fat in the body. If you have loose skin, Dr. Maglic may suggest combining liposuction with a lift surgery. Liposuction is often done with skin tightening surgery, like a tummy tuck, arm lift, or thighplasty, to produce the best results. In your consultation, talk to Dr. Maglic about all your concerns like loose skin and cellulite so your best treatment plan can be developed.
Will I have scars?
Since a facelift is a surgical procedure, incisions will need to be made and sutured. This will create scars, but Dr. Maglic does his best to minimize their appearance. This starts with making small incisions in the natural folds of your body or in less visible areas. After your surgery, Dr. Maglic or a member of our team will go over how to care for your stitches so they leave minimal scarring.
Will my results last?
Before liposuction, it's important to be prepared to maintain your results. Although liposuction reduces the number of fat cells in an area, you can still lose and gain weight. Dr. Maglic suggests that you be at or close to a healthy weight before having liposuction. Afterward, it is best to remain within 5 – 10 pounds of your post-surgical weight. Pregnancy after liposuction will also alter your results; however, another surgery like a mommy makeover can be done to refresh your appearance.
Look Tighter and Toned
When diet and exercise aren't doing anything to get rid of those last few pounds, VASER® liposuction and Renuvion® skin tightening at Maglic Plastic Surgery can deliver immediate results. Without the help of liposuction, it can be difficult to create the slimming results you want. We can recommend various options for liposuction treatment, depending on your personal aesthetic desires. We invite you to call our practice in Draper, UT to set up your private consultation with Dr. Maglic.
