What is Liposuction?

 Liposuction, involves removing unwanted pockets of subcutaneous fat. If diet and exercise aren’t leaving you with the shape you would like, liposuction might be for you. It is not a substitute for weight loss but provides a way to contour your curves. The fat removed won’t come back, and what remains leaves you with your new sculpted shape.  Bothersome fatty deposits are found in areas that are resistant to diet and exercise, such as the face, neck, breast, abdomen, upper arm, hips, thighs, knees, and ankles. The procedure can be performed in multiple areas at a time and your surgeon will follow accepted guidelines regarding safe volumes. Multiple procedures may be necessary for full body contouring. 

For masculine contouring, High-definition liposculpting can help define and sculpt the chest or abdomen into a more athletic appearance. This procedure targets the fatty layer between the muscle and skin layers and can even help tighten the skin for a more toned look.
