Liposuction

Despite good health and a reasonable level of fitness, some women may still have a body with disproportionate contours due to localized fat deposits. These areas may be the result of family traits rather than poor weight maintenance or lack of a fitness regimen.

Liposuction slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits, improving body contours and proportion and ultimately enhancing your self-image. It may be used to reduce localized fat deposits of the:

• Thighs
• Hips and buttocks
• Abdomen and waist
• Upper arms
• Back
• Inner knee
• Chest area
• Cheeks, chin and neck
• Calves and ankles

Liposuction may be performed alone or in conjunction with other procedures such as a facelift, breast reduction or tummy tuck.

Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity or a substitute for proper diet and exercise. It is also not an effective treatment for cellulite -- the dimpled skin that typically appears on the thighs, hips and buttocks.
