Liposuction · Westchase, Tampa
Arviv Medical Aesthetics offers high-definition liposuction at the Westchase flagship, where the surgical option is compared with the practice's widest non-surgical lineup and planned under physician oversight.
The Flagship Difference
High-definition liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that removes diet-resistant fat directly. At Westchase it shares a menu with Emsculpt Neo, CoolSculpting, and skin tightening, so your consult compares the surgical route with every gentler one in a single conversation.
Tampa is where Dr. Tali Arviv founded this practice in 2014, and it remains our largest team and broadest device bench. That depth is your protection here: surgery is treated as surgery, candidacy is reviewed before anything is scheduled, and hearing that a non-surgical plan fits you better is a normal way for a consult to end.
Before You Book
Every surgical plan at this practice is reviewed under Dr. Tali Arviv, MD's team, and the review happens before your procedure is scheduled, never after.
A surgical plan asks far more of you than a facial booking, and it is reviewed that way. Your goals and health history go through the same physician-led standard the practice has run since 2014, before any date goes on the calendar.
Westchase runs the widest body-contouring lineup in the practice, so liposuction is compared with the non-surgical routes rather than assumed. If a gentler plan reaches your goal, that is the plan you leave with.
The non-surgical treatments on this menu send you back to your day. Liposuction does not, and we treat that difference seriously: recovery time is mapped with you at consult, before you commit.
Worth knowing before you arrive: liposuction takes fat out, but it does not tighten the skin above it. If laxity is part of what you see, your plan may add Ultherapy alongside it. And if you split your year between coasts, the same procedure is offered at our Miami location, so either office can handle your follow-up visits.
The Path
Surgery earns a slower sequence than a lunchtime treatment. Each stage below is settled before the next begins, in line with the patient safety guidance dermatologic surgery associations publish.
You describe the area and the change you want. Because the flagship carries so many options, the conversation starts with your goal, never with a machine or an operating plan.
Your health history and treatment area go through a physician-led review. That review decides whether liposuction fits you or a non-surgical plan serves you better.
If surgery is the right call, the day itself gets walked through with you in advance, so nothing about it arrives as a surprise.
Recovery gets real dates before you book, covering what the first days ask of you, when follow-up happens, and when normal routines resume.
The Surgical End
This is the surgical end of the Westchase bench, weighed against every non-surgical option at the same visit. Not everyone who asks about it is a candidate.
Every plan is set under physician-led oversight, and being talked out of surgery is a normal outcome of this visit rather than a failed one. Book a consult for a direct read on which end of the bench your goal sits at.
Real Results


Individual results vary. These are real patients photographed at our offices; no photo is a promise of your own outcome, and only a consult can tell you what is realistic.
In Their Words
One Tampa guest names liposuction in a published review, and what she says is short: she is pleased with the result. Beyond that, what guests write about is the consult and the care around it, including consults that widened once the practice brought its plastic surgeon into the room. Read more reviews from guests across all three Florida locations.
“I’m very pleased with the liposuction Dr. Arviv did”
“The entire team was incredibly welcoming, professional, and genuinely attentive to my goals. You can tell they truly care about their clients and take the time to explain everything in a way that makes you feel comfortable and confident.”
“I’ve been seeing Danielle for about 6 months now and have been so happy with my experience and results! She’s incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely so sweet. She always makes me feel comfortable. I highly recommend her!”
Individual results vary. Reviews describe one guest’s experience and are not a promise of outcome.

Address & Phone
Hours
Sometimes, and the pairing is decided at your consult. Liposuction removes fat, Emsculpt Neo builds muscle while reducing fat, and Ultherapy tightens skin, so a Tampa plan may sequence two of them toward one goal. Your provider maps the order and the spacing between sessions.
Arviv Medical Aesthetics is a physician-founded practice, and every surgical plan here is reviewed under Dr. Tali Arviv, MD's team before it is scheduled. You meet the provider managing your plan at your consult, where candidacy and technique are settled together.
Real downtime, unlike the non-surgical treatments on our Tampa menu. How much depends on the area treated and your health picture, which is why your provider puts dates on it at consult rather than publishing a number here. The FDA's liposuction page is a plain-language read on risks and recovery worth your time first.
