It clings to areas you’ve tried to slim with exercise, clean eating, and trend-worthy workouts. But what if you could reshape those areas in-office, while awake, and still get gorgeous results?

At Stutman Plastic Surgery in Scottsdale, Dr. Ross Stutman offers S.L.A.E. Silhouette™ — an exclusive, minimally invasive liposuction and fat grafting procedure. A graduate of the University of Arizona and Loyola University Chicago, Dr. Stutman is board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is the only surgeon in Arizona with formal oculoplastic surgery training, offering you the highest level of expertise with each cosmetic procedure

What the S.L.A.E. Silhouette Process Looks Like

Curious about what happens with awake liposuction? Here’s a clear step-by-step look at the S.L.A.E. Silhouette experience from start to finish:

  • Step 1: Personalized consultation: You’ll meet with Dr. Stutman in Scottsdale to review your body goals and evaluate candidacy. This includes a detailed discussion of the areas you’d like sculpted and whether fat grafting is the right option for you.
  • Step 2: Pre-procedure preparation. You’ll receive detailed instructions to prepare. Most patients are asked to avoid certain medications and arrange a ride home.
  • Step 3: Day of the procedure. Once you arrive, the treatment area is numbed using local anesthesia. You’ll be fully awake but relaxed and comfortable.
  • Step 4: Precise fat removal. Using small cannulas, Dr. Stutman removes unwanted fat through tiny incisions, minimizing trauma and reducing recovery time.
  • Step 5: Optional fat grafting. The removed fat is purified and reinjected into target areas, such as the face, breasts, or buttocks, to restore natural volume.
  • Step 6: Recovery and results. You’ll return home the same day with a compression garment and aftercare instructions. Most patients resume regular activities in just a few days.

Each phase is performed with discretion, care, and attention to detail, ensuring you remain confident and informed throughout.

Why S.L.A.E. Silhouette Is Different

Unlike traditional liposuction, S.L.A.E. Silhouette is designed for patients who want results without the need for hospital stays or extensive recovery. Here’s why it stands apart:

  • In-office precision: The procedure is performed entirely in the office, allowing more control and patient-centered care.
  • No general anesthesia: Eliminates risks tied to sedation, including grogginess, nausea, and extended downtime.
  • Custom sculpting: The technique focuses on maintaining natural curves while refining shape and symmetry.
  • Quick return to life: Many patients return to work within days, not weeks.

This advanced approach reflects Dr. Stutman’s commitment to creating elegant results through sophisticated techniques.
