Procedure Details

This 35 year old patient underwent prior abdominoplasty and breast reduction 4 months prior to this procedure. She was unhappy with excess adiposity of the back, hips, flanks and upper abdomen and elected to proceed with liposuction to these areas with a much improved result. The total aspirate was 3,150 cc.

Liposuction to Improve Results

Liposuction can add to the results of other procedures or be performed alone. Liposuction removes excess fat but does not remove loose skin. It is this factor that determines if liposuction by itself will give a patient the results they desire.
