Liposuction: Localized Slimming and Reshaping

Liposuction may be right for you if, despite being healthy and reasonably fit, you have uneven contours because of localized fat deposits.

Liposuction can reduce fat deposits of the:

• Thighs, hips or buttocks

• Abdomen and waist

• Upper arms

• Back

• Inner knee

• Chest

• Cheeks, chin and neck

• Calves and ankles

Liposuction can be performed alone or with other procedures such as a facelift, breast reduction or tummy tuck. Liposuction is not a treatment for obesity, a substitute for diet and exercise or a treatment for cellulite.

You are a candidate for liposuction if you are:

• An adult within 30% of your ideal weight with elastic skin and good muscle tone

• Healthy, with no life-threatening illnesses or medical conditions

• A non-smoker

• An individual with a positive outlook and specific goals in mind for your body contouring
