Liposuction

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that removes stubborn fat from specific areas of the body to improve shape and contours. Also called lipoplasty or suction-assisted fat removal, it is ideal for people with localized fat that does not respond to diet or exercise. Liposuction is not a weight-loss procedure, but a body-contouring treatment designed to enhance your natural appearance.

Areas Liposuction Can Treat

Liposuction can remove stubborn fat from many parts of the body, including the abdomen, waist (love handles), thighs, hips, back, arms, neck and chin, knees, buttocks, and lower legs. These areas are commonly resistant to diet and exercise and can be reshaped for better body balance and proportion.

Benefits of Liposuction

• Enhances body shape and definition

• Targets specific problem areas

• Uses small, discreet incisions

• Permanently removes fat cells (with stable weight)

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Liposuction is best for people who are close to their ideal weight, have localized fat that doesn’t respond to exercise, good skin elasticity, and realistic expectations. It is not a treatment for obesity or major weight loss.

How Long Do Results Last?

Fat cells removed with liposuction do not come back. Long-lasting results depend on maintaining a healthy weight, good skin quality, and a balanced lifestyle. Weight gain can still affect untreated fat cells.
