What is liposuction?
Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty, slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits, improving your body contours and proportion, and ultimately, enhancing your self-image.
Despite good health and a reasonable level of fitness, some people may still have a body with disproportionate contours due to localized fat deposits. These areas may be due to family traits rather than a lack of weight control or fitness.
Liposuction surgery can be used to treat stubborn fat pockets in many parts of the body including:
- Abdomen and waist.
- Thighs, hips and buttocks.
- Arms, neck and back.
- Inner knee.
- Chest.
- Cheeks and chin.
- Calves and ankles.
In some cases, liposuction is performed alone, in other cases it is used with plastic surgery procedures such as a Facelift, Breast Reduction, or a Tummy Tuck.
Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity and is not a replacement for regular exercise and good eating habits. It is also not an effective treatment for cellulite, the dimpled skin that typically appears on the thighs, hips and buttocks.
People with stubborn areas of fat and who exercise regularly are the best candidates for this procedure.
Assisted Liposuction
Laser and ultrasound assisted liposuction, like traditional liposuction aren't a weight control method or a fix for obesity. They are used to help contour your body in those areas that are not responsive to diet and exercise such as saddlebags or a paunchy stomach. Also like traditional liposuction, laser-assisted liposuction is most often used to reduce fullness in your:
- Abdomen
- Ankles
- Arms
- Buttocks
- Cheeks
- Chin
- Hips
- Knees
- Neck
- Thighs
- Upper arms
- Waist
