At The Plastic and Cosmetic Center of South Texas, led by Dr. Thomas Jeneby and Dr. Connie Hiers, we offer an innovative approach to body contouring: Awake Liposuction, also known as Twilight Lipo. This advanced technique gives patients more control, comfort, and convenience than traditional liposuction—all while achieving stunning, natural-looking results.
What is Awake or Twilight Liposuction?
Awake Liposuction is a minimally invasive fat removal procedure designed to sculpt and refine your body with less downtime and more flexibility. Unlike traditional liposuction under general anesthesia, Twilight Lipo lets you choose your level of sedation based on your comfort and lifestyle. Whether you want to stay fully awake, lightly sedated, or deeply relaxed, our team customizes the experience for you.
Sedation Options Include:
- IV Sedation – Experience deep relaxation with minimal awareness of the procedure, without the grogginess of general anesthesia.
- Spinal Sedation – Achieve targeted numbness below the waist for maximum comfort without full anesthesia.
- Local Anesthesia – Stay fully awake and alert. Many patients are surprised at how comfortable this option can be.
- Oral Sedation – A milder choice for those who just want to “take the edge off” while remaining conscious.
This customizable approach means you are in control—awake or asleep, it’s entirely your decision.
Why Patients Love Awake Liposuction
- Minimally Invasive, Little to No Downtime – Awake Lipo uses gentle techniques that reduce trauma to the body. Many patients resume normal activities within a few days, making it ideal for busy lifestyles.
