How Do I Know if Liposuction is Right for Me?

The best candidates for body sculpting with liposuction:

Are within the normal weight range for their height and build
Have tried diet, exercise and weight loss
Have distinct areas of localized fat that are disproportionate to the rest of their bodies

Tell me More About the Procedure!

Doctors use a liposuction method known as the tumescent technique, which involves injecting a saline solution, anesthesia and adrenaline into the fatty area being removed.

Physicians then make a tiny incision and place a small suction tube known as a cannula under the skin to reach the treatment area. The device removes fat to help reduce bulging areas of the body.

Afterwards, most patients require two to five days before resuming normal activities. All wear compression garments over the treated area to aid in healing.

The most frequent areas treated by liposuction are:

The abdomen
Hips
Flanks ("love handles")

Remember: liposuction is intended for body contouring, not weight control!
