The video documents an in‑office, awake liposculpting session performed by Dr. Sarah Yovino on a patient named Nancy. The team first numbs the waist, then uses laser‑assisted fat liquefaction followed by small‑cannula suction to sculpt the waist, especially addressing residual fullness after a prior tummy‑tuck. After completing the waist, they move to the inner thighs and knees, applying the same numbing, laser melting, and cannula removal technique to create a slimmer waistline, increased thigh gap, and refined knee contour. Throughout, the staff emphasize patient comfort, precise access points, and the safety of performing the procedure while the patient is awake. The narration is instructional, describing each step, the rationale for approach angles, and the visual results as the fat is removed.

Good morning, happy Monday. Got a great day in the office today. See what Nancy's up to.
Good morning, Nancy.
Good morning, Dr. Yovino.
All right, so what do we have after that?
After that, we have an awake liposculpting case of the waist and the inner thigh and knee.
Oh yeah.
Oh yeah.
All right, we're back.
This is our next patient. We're gonna be sculpting her waist. We're gonna really snatch this in. She's already had a tummy tuck. It wasn't done by me, but we gotta take care of all this extra fullness here. We're gonna do this awake. We're gonna do it here in the office, and she's gonna love it. All right, so we have some other views here. Again, you can see this waist. We're gonna bring this in. We're gonna grab the lower part of this bra roll. We're gonna come around. We're gonna grab all this to get nice and curvy through here. Snatch her in. After we finish sculpting her waist, we're gonna move down into the inner thigh and the knee area so that way we can bring this in, give her more thigh gap.
We are— we're just numbing her. We're getting all numb across the waist. She's awake. She's relaxed. It's a really nice and safe way of doing it. We're gonna snatch this waist in. Already numbed her. She's awake, she's comfortable. We've moved on to the lasering portion, so this is melting the fat. It's essentially laser sculpting, getting it ready for smooth removal. All right, so we are sculpting her waist. All this love handle stuff is coming in really nice, getting a better curve through here. Super comfortable. Alright, so we moved on to the other side. We're just numbing her waist right now, getting her all really comfortable. You doing alright?
Yeah.
Awesome. Alright, we moved on to our sculpting, our laser sculpting part. So we're just getting you nice and liquefied and getting it ready for removal. So we're sculpting here, this is the flank, this is all the front part, the front part of the waist. So she'll look nice and snatched in from the front because we're doing this. We're still working on the waist here, but if you notice, I come from multiple different angles. We have an access site here, here, and down here. Very small, but it allows for really even results. We're finishing off the waist. We do it from the back area, grab some of the tailbone. Now remember, she's already had some of these areas done, so we're working through some tough zones here to get—
I feel that.
Yeah, so, so did you get some help with that?
Yeah.
Onto the inner thigh. I love approaching it from this back area first. It gets all this back portion of the thigh. It's really important to complete it. Onto the knee and the inner thigh here. We're just laying down some numbing medications. Very tolerable. Do it really gently. Small cannulas, big results. Sculpting the left inner knee and the thigh area. Taking this down, gonna get her nice and thin.
Look at all that inner thigh fat. Hello, thigh gap.
That's the left side. We're now working on the right side, this whole inner thigh here. This is that whole thigh gap getting thinner and thinner. All right, here she comes. We just finished her inner thighs and knees and waist, and you're looking great.
