Ideal candidate for Liposuction
Contrary to a common misconception, liposuction is not designed for weight loss. The ideal candidate for this procedure is a patient who is generally healthy and not extremely overweight, but tired of fighting a losing battle against localized stubborn fat deposits that do not respond to exercise and diet.

Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction
Ultrasound assisted liposuction is a relatively new technique for safely removing unwanted fat. It uses tiny cannulas (stainless steel surgical instruments) and ultrasound waves to gently dislodge fat cells for removal. This technique makes it possible to operate on smaller areas of the body and exercise greater control for expert body sculpting and shaping.

Liposuction FAQ
Can liposuction be combined with other procedures?
Yes, liposuction can be combined with other cosmetic procedures such as a tummy tuck, breast augmentation or reduction, or Brazilian Butt Lift to achieve comprehensive body contouring results. Combining procedures may reduce overall recovery time and cost compared to having them done separately.
How long do liposuction results last?
The results of liposuction can be long-lasting, especially if the patient maintains a stable weight through healthy lifestyle choices. However, factors such as aging, weight fluctuations, and genetic predispositions can impact the longevity of results.
Is liposuction a weight loss procedure?
No, liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. It is intended for body contouring and removing localized fat deposits. It is not a solution for obesity, and patients should be at a stable weight before undergoing the procedure.
