Dr. Ramon Robles offers liposuction to help patients achieve a slimmer appearance and feel more confident in their skin.

A 24-year-old woman came to our Phoenix plastic surgery office to slim her figure and balance out her proportions. Dr. Robles used liposuction to remove 3,150cc of fat from her abdomen, waist, and upper back. The fat was then injected into her buttocks for all-around improved contours.

Tumescent Technique
During this technique, Dr. Robles will first inject a mixture of salt, lidocaine, and epinephrine before suctioning out the fat cells. This special solution shrinks blood vessels and simultaneously isolates fat cells, making the excess fat easier to remove.
Power-Assisted Liposuction
Dr. Robles will insert a small vibrating tube, also known as a cannula, into the fat layer to break up fat cells for easy removal. This tool is ideal for larger areas since it allows our plastic surgeon to remove more tissue at once.
VASER Liposuction An Advanced Technique
Dr. Robles often prefers VASER® power-assisted liposuction due to the variety of benefits it offers his Phoenix and Scottsdale, AZ, patients:
- This body contouring technique typically takes one to two hours, much less than other methods.
- This method melts the fat before suctioning it away for easier removal.
- VASER liposuction is better for fat transfers because it's gentler on the removed fat cells.
- VASER is gentler on tissues surrounding the treatment site and leaves veins and arteries intact.
- The procedure results in less downtime for the patient; often just a few days.
- Recovery involves less pain, bruising, and inflammation.
Dr. Robles has used the VASER liposuction technique in thousands of cases. He's seen firsthand how transformative it can be.
The Cost of VASER Liposuction

Putting Patients at Ease "Dr. Robles truly worked wonders."
Maria Biorn

2023
Dr. Robles and his staff were absolutely amazing. I had concerns about the pain post op with this being my first cosmetic procedure. I was put at ease immediately and felt zero pain after my surgery. There was a very mild discomfort the day following my procedure but no pain at all. I would recommend Dr. Robles to anyone looking into improving themselves. It will be the best decision you can make when choosing a doctor. Five stars does not do Dr. Robles and his staff justice they are a 10/10.

They made sure I was comfortable and well-informed throughout the entire process. The level of care and attention to detail they exhibited was truly remarkable. Post-surgery, I couldn't be happier with the results! Dr. Robles truly worked wonders, achieving the exact look I had envisioned while ensuring a natural and harmonious outcome. The healing process was smooth and quick. I had little to no pain only two days post-surgery! I can wholeheartedly recommend Robles Plastic Surgery.
