What is Liposuction anyway?
Liposuction is an operation similar to sculpting in which fat is removed through small incisions. It works well for fine tuning body shape when the skin lying over the area is pretty "tight." There area number of techniques involving ultrasound and heat used to break up more fat. Some of these can lead to "over-suctioning" or removing too much fat which can make you look poorly. Pictures of several Hollywood celebrities on the blogs recently have affirmed this.
Liposuction is not weight loss. Patients within a stable weight range are the best candidates. Patients that gain or lose weight afterward can change the result. Unless this weight change is dramatic, the result tends to change only slightly fortunately.
With all this being said, our philosophy is to remove fat conservatively such that our patients do not look "surgical."
