Liposuction Body Contouring (Lipoplasty)
Despite good health and a reasonable level of fitness, some individuals may still have disproportionate body contours due to localized fat deposits. Often, these areas of fat are due to heredity or family traits rather than because of a lack of weight control or fitness.
Liposuction may be right for you if you have excess fat deposits that do not respond to diet or exercise.
In general, this procedure slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing localized or regional excess fat deposits, improving your body contours and proportion - and ultimately enhancing your self-image and confidence.
The areas most often needing liposuction:
- Abdomen and Waist
- Thighs
- Hips and Buttocks
- Cheeks, Chin and Neck
Ideal candidates for liposuction are adults of any age who are within 30% of their ideal weight and with firm, elastic skin and good muscle tone. They are also healthy individuals who do not have a life-threatening illness or medical condition, do not smoke, and have a positive outlook with specific goals in mind for their body.
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 dimple skin that typically appears on thighs, hips and buttocks.
