We all want to look our best and in some
cases, even with diet and regular exercise,
we are unable to lose the excess fat in
a particular body area. Liposuction is a
surgical procedure that can sometimes help
with this problem. Several tiny incisions
are made in the areas that need treatment
and the excess fat is removed. It is important
to remember that this is not a weight loss
procedure and that it works best on people
with isolated areas of fat. Skin quality
is also a factor because patients with more
skin elasticity will obtain better results.
Common areas of treatment are the thighs,
hips, back, abdomen, and chin, although
other areas can be treated. The length of
time needed for this procedure varies from
1 to 2 hours, depending on how many areas
are being treated.
