liposuction
Liposuction is a surgical procedure that removes unwanted, excess fat from specific areas of the body. This procedure can be performed while the patient is awake during surgery or under anesthesia. Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries we perform and helps patients achieve a slimmer and more proportional shape.
What liposuction surgery can do:
What liposuction surgery can do:
- Contour areas of the body

What liposuction can't do:
Liposuction is a body contouring procedure, not a weight loss procedure. It works best for people of normal weight who have extra fat. If you have firm, elastic skin you will get the best results. Skin that is soft, thin, or stretched from weight loss may not reshape well. We will disucss all of this at your initial consultation.

- Abdomen and waist
- Back
- Calves and ankles
- Chest area
- Neck
