Liposuction
The liposuction is a safe surgical technique used to remove unsightly fat deposits from certain areas of the body, including the face and neck, arms, trunk, abdomen, buttocks, hips and thighs, knees, calves and ankles.
Liposuction is not a substitute for weight reduction, but rather a method of removing localized deposits of fatty tissue that do not respond to diet or exercise.
The best candidate for liposuction is the relatively normal weight individual who has excess fat in certain areas of the body.
