Questions, Answers, and Information Directly from Dr. William Rahal

Sourced directly from Dr. William Rahal's social posts and replies.

How does Dr. Rahal utilize VASER liposuction?
Dr. Rahal uses VASER liposuction, an ultrasound technology that melts fat while preserving the fibrocellular network (FSM). He believes this technique is superior as it melts fat more effectively while maintaining important tissue structures.
Source →
What is the recommended downtime after a 360 Lipo procedure?
Dr. Rahal advises patients to plan for at least two weeks off work after a 360 Lipo procedure.
Source →
What non-surgical options does Dr. Rahal recommend for loose skin?
For patients with loose skin who wish to avoid a tummy tuck, Dr. Rahal recommends Renuvion (formerly J-Plasma) for internal skin tightening and Morpheus 8 for external skin tightening.
Source →
Can men undergo 360 liposuction and fat transfer to the hips?
Yes, men are candidates for 360 liposuction and fat transfer to the hips. However, Dr. Rahal notes that adding a significant amount of fat to a male's hips may result in a feminized physique.
Source →
What should patients know about 'dents' and cellulite after a BBL?
Dr. Rahal explains that dents observed during surgery typically resolve within 15 minutes. However, many 'dents' patients experience are actually pre-existing cellulite, which will remain after a BBL procedure as the surgery does not treat cellulite.
Source →
What is the recovery experience like after J-Plasma (Renuvion)?
Patients typically do not experience a lot of pain directly from J-Plasma; any pain is usually associated with the liposuction portion of the procedure. However, J-Plasma does increase inflammation, so patients may notice a bit more swelling.
Source →
How can patients maintain BBL results after surgery, especially regarding weight loss?
Dr. Rahal emphasizes that maintaining BBL results after surgery is directly related to calorie intake. Patients must consume at least their maintenance calories post-op. If calorie intake is significantly decreased, weight loss will occur, and a portion of that loss will come from the surgical results.

What is the typical recovery experience after J-Plasma?
Patients do not experience a lot of pain after J-Plasma. Any pain experienced is usually associated with the liposuction portion of the procedure. Patients may have a little bit more inflammation or swelling, as J-Plasma does increase inflammation.
Source →
What is VASER liposuction and why does Dr. Rahal use it?
VASER is an ultrasound technology that works by melting fat. Dr. Rahal uses it because it preserves the white fibrocellular network (FSM) while melting fat, which he believes makes the technique superior.
Source →
How does diet and calorie intake affect BBL results after surgery?
The retention of BBL results after weight loss is dependent on calorie intake. After surgery, patients need to consume at least their maintenance calories. If a patient significantly decreases or does not eat enough calories after surgery, they will lose weight, and some of that weight loss will come from the surgical results.
Source →
What is the recommended downtime after a 360 liposuction procedure?
Patients are advised to plan for at least two weeks off work after a 360 procedure, and can typically return to work around that time.
Source →
What are Dr. Rahal's recommended options for skin tightening without a tummy tuck, and how do they work?
Dr. Rahal considers Renuvion (formerly J-Plasma) and Morpheus 8 to be the two best options for addressing loose skin without a tummy tuck. Renuvion provides internal skin tightening, while Morpheus 8 provides external skin tightening.
Source →
Are men candidates for 360 liposuction and fat transfer to the hips, and what are the aesthetic considerations?
Yes, men are candidates for 360 liposuction and fat transfer to the hips. However, adding a significant amount of fat to a male's hips through fat transfer may result in a feminized physique.
Source →
Do dents observed during BBL surgery persist?
Dents observed during live BBL surgeries typically resolve within approximately 15 minutes.
Source →
What should patients know about cellulite and BBL results?
Many 'dents' that patients experience after a BBL are actually pre-existing cellulite. If a patient has cellulite before the procedure, they will still have cellulite after the procedure, as it will not go away.
Source →
How does J-Plasma (Renuvion) compare to a tummy tuck for skin tightening?
J-Plasma, also known as Renuvion, does not tighten the skin as effectively as a tummy tuck. It should not be considered a replacement for a tummy tuck, as it is not as powerful. However, it is an alternative for patients who want to avoid scars, more downtime, and more recovery compared to a tummy tuck, and it does help and works for skin tightening.

Industry Payments

Federal law (the Physician Payments Sunshine Act) requires drug and medical-device companies to report anything of value they give to a physician — consulting and speaking fees, research funding, travel, royalties, and even meals. Medicare publishes all of it in a public database called Open Payments. We show it here so you don't have to go looking for it.

Compared to peers

Modest

Dr. William Rahal received $628 across 19 payments in 2024. That is higher than about 56% of the physicians here who received any industry payment. Most of it was categorised as food and beverage, and the largest single payer was ABBVIE INC..

What this means for your care

  • A disclosed payment is a business relationship, not evidence of wrongdoing, and it says nothing on its own about the quality of your care.
  • Most payments are small. Across the physicians listed on NavMDs, the single most common category is food and beverage at industry-sponsored talks.
  • Larger consulting, speaking or royalty payments mean an ongoing financial relationship with a company whose products your doctor may use or recommend. That is worth knowing about, and it is reasonable to ask about.
  • A fair question to ask: “Do you have a financial relationship with the maker of the implant, filler or device you're recommending — and what alternatives did you consider?”

What areas of care does Dr. William Rahal cater to?
Dr. Rahal specializes in plastic surgery, with a focus on body contouring procedures. His areas of expertise include Brazilian Butt Lifts (BBLs), 360 Lipo, breast augmentation and revision, tummy tucks, liposuction, arm lifts, and mommy makeovers. Dr. Rahal advocates for a modern approach to tummy tucks, emphasizing that every tummy tuck liposuction procedure should involve liposuction of the abdomen. He views the philosophy of not liposuctioning the abdomen during a tummy tuck as an outdated approach from the 1990s, noting that without abdominal liposuction, the result will be a very uneven and full abdominal appearance. His approach to 360 BBL procedures almost always includes fat transfers to the hip dip areas.
