Her years of experience leading Desert Hills Plastic Surgery Center allow her to guide each patient with care. She will design a treatment plan that respects your goals and supports predictable, long-lasting improvement.

Before Liposuction: Getting Ready for a Smooth Experience

Your first visit focuses on your goals and concerns. Dr. Brown wants you to feel informed about your choices, so she talks through what liposuction can accomplish and what results look like over time. You can review before-and-after photos to help visualize outcomes that fit your body and preferences. This stage is also the time to talk through your health history, review your treatment plan, and ask anything that comes to mind.

Once you decide to move forward, you receive clear instructions for how to prepare.

During Liposuction: What Happens on Procedure Day

Liposuction is performed in fully accredited outpatient surgery centers in Henderson and Las Vegas, where safety standards guide every detail. Before your procedure, you meet with Dr. Steve Brown, a board-certified anesthesiologist and husband of Dr. Hayley Brown. He explains how he manages your anesthesia and your safety throughout the entire surgery.

In the operating room, Dr. Hayley Brown shapes the treatment area with care. She is an expert at creating balanced results that feel right for your natural frame. Throughout the procedure, the team stays attentive to your comfort and monitors you closely.

After Liposuction: Recovery and Follow-Up

Recovery looks different for everyone, but you can expect swelling and tightness early on. Our team gives you clear guidance that helps each stage feel manageable.
