Eliminate stubborn hip fat and reveal the athletic, sculpted physique you have been working toward.
When it comes to body contouring, not all plastic surgery practices deliver the same level of precision and care. At Formation, we take a fundamentally different approach to hip liposuction in Tampa, FL, one that prioritizes lasting results over quick fixes.
Dr. Gopal Grandhige brings more than 15 years of surgical experience to every procedure. As a board certified surgeon with advanced fellowship training in burn surgery, critical care, and minimally invasive techniques, he understands the body as an integrated system. Our team, including Dr. Ahmad Saad, ensures every patient receives personalized attention throughout their journey.
Our philosophy centers on restraint and precision. The goal is never to create an over sculpted or artificial appearance. Instead, we focus on revealing the natural athletic structure that already exists beneath stubborn fat deposits.
Advanced body sculpting techniques tailored to each patient’s unique anatomy and goals.
This FDA cleared method uses controlled vibration to loosen fat cells for more complete and precise removal. Formation serves as a training site for physicians learning PAL high definition methods.
Ultrasonic energy gently breaks down fat with less trauma to surrounding tissue. Ideal for patients seeking athletic definition through high definition liposuction.
Laser energy heats and liquefies fat cells before removal, stimulating collagen production and helping skin conform to your new body shape.
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Grandhige to discuss your goals and learn whether hip liposuction is right for you.
Dr. Grandhige holds an MD degree and maintains board certification through the American Board of Surgery. He completed medical school at the University of Michigan and initially matched into a highly competitive combined plastic surgery residency at Yale University School of Medicine.
His career evolved through advanced fellowship training in burn surgery, critical care, and minimally invasive metabolic and foregut surgery. This combination is unusual in aesthetic surgery, but it shapes everything about how Formation operates.
If several of these resonate with you, a consultation can help determine whether hip liposuction in Tampa, FL aligns with your goals.

Facial Harmonization Step 2
It takes more than one treatment and often more than one treatment session to accomplish facial harmony and balance.
Here’s a look at step 2 in the journey for our surgical coordinator Hanna.
She wanted to address asymmetry and fullness in the lower face. To accomplish this we’ve started with Botox in the masseter to slim the jaw, and create a more feminine, heart shaped face. Now for step 2 we’re placing PDO lifting threads to enhance definition around the jawline without adding volume.

The power of a profile transformation. 🔥
For this patient, we combined PDO Lifting Threads and advanced chin/jawline filler to completely redefine his lower face. By strategically lifting the mid-to-lower face and sculpting the jaw, we didn’t just enhance one feature—we elevated his entire facial appearance.
An incredible, natural-looking result that brings balance and confidence from every angle.
Note: Minor bunching or puckering is completely normal immediately following a PDO thread lift. The slight bunching visible in the after photo will fully subside on its own over the next 2-4 weeks as the threads settle.

Most patients return to light daily activities within one week and resume gym workouts within two to four weeks while wearing compression garments. Final results typically become visible between three and six months as swelling fully resolves.
Yes. The fat cells removed during liposuction do not regenerate. Results remain stable as long as you maintain a healthy weight. Significant weight gain can affect remaining fat cells, which is why lifestyle alignment matters.
Hip liposuction removes localized fat deposits to contour the flanks and love handle area. A tummy tuck addresses loose skin and muscle separation in the abdominal wall. Some patients benefit from combining both procedures.
Ideal candidates are at or near their goal weight, have good skin elasticity, and struggle with diet resistant fat on the hips and flanks. A consultation with Dr. Grandhige will determine whether this procedure aligns with your anatomy and goals.
Discomfort is typically described as similar to muscle soreness after an intense workout. Pain is well managed with prescribed medication during the first week. Most patients find recovery more comfortable than expected.
You have put in the work. You have stayed disciplined. Now it is time to see the results you deserve.
Many patients also explore complementary treatments such as neck and jawline contouring or injectable treatments to enhance their overall appearance.
