The Liposuction Advantage One treatment may be all you need to reshape problem areas Treat more areas—and larger areas—in one procedure May be performed with either local or general anesthesia More consistent and predictable result than noninvasive treatments Liposuction, sometimes referred to as "lipo" by patients, slims and reshapes specific areas of the body by removing excess fat deposits and improving your body contours and proportion. What liposuction can treat Thighs Hips and buttocks Abdomen and waist Upper arms Back Inner knee Chest area Cheeks, chin and neck Calves and ankles Liposuction can be performed alone or along with other plastic surgery procedures, such as a facelift, breast reduction or a tummy tuck. What liposuction can't do 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 dimpled skin that typically appears on the thighs, hips and buttocks—or loose saggy skin.Ever thought of wanting to get rid of that small area of extra fat?  You are in great shape, but no matter how hard you exercise or however many 'cleansing' diet regimes you suffer through, that lower abdomen/lateral thigh/inner thigh/upper back area just will not budge!  Liposuction may be an option for you.   This procedure offers the ability to directly contour the neck, abdomen, flanks, back, arms, and thighs by removing excess fat in a minimally invasive manner.
