What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a cosmetic surgery procedure designed to remove localized fat deposits that are resistant to diet and exercise. It is not intended for overall weight loss, but rather for enhancing the shape and proportion of specific areas like the abdomen, arms, chin, thighs, and flanks.

Areas Commonly Treated

  • Abdomen & Waist
  • Inner and Outer Thighs
  • Upper Arms
  • Chin and Neck
  • Back and Bra Line
  • Male Chest (Gynecomastia)
  • Hips & Love Handles

Procedure, Recovery & Results

Liposuction is typically performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the area and technique. The procedure lasts between 1 to 4 hours.
