About Liposuction

Lipoplasty, commonly known as liposuction, is a common surgical procedure that removes deposits of excess fat from specific areas of the body, face or neck. It has become one of the most common procedures in cosmetic surgery, as it has helped many individuals achieve a more pleasing body contour. Exercise and diet can help make you healthy, as well as help you look lean and muscular. For some individuals, however, it does not always remove those stubborn LFD's (localized fat deposits). Now even though liposuction does offer a solution to removing unwanted fat deposits, it is not a substitute for a good diet and exercise. Liposuction can be used to slim the hips, thighs, flatten the tummy, shape the calves and ankles or eliminate a double chin.

The Tummy Tuck Procedure

A tummy tuck can help reduce a protruding abdomen, making it flatter and firmer. This can benefit women who have experienced multiple pregnancies and find that it has left their stomachs with loose, hanging skin.

The procedure can also help those who have lost a significant amount of weight, but still find loose, excess skin hanging from their abdomen. No amount of dieting or exercise can restore the abdomen to its normal shape, but a tummy tuck provides a solution. A tummy tuck can improve abdominal appearance, but it can leave a considerable amount of scarring. A mini tummy tuck provides an alternative for those who simply wish to improve their abdominal appearance below the navel. Consulting with a plastic surgeon will help determine which procedure works best for your needs.
