PHOENIX, AZ, August 01, 2012 (Press-News.org) Liposuction is a body contouring technique that has been proven effective at helping men and women tighten and tone various areas of their body. The most common areas to have liposuction performed include:
- Thighs
- Hips
- Abdomen
- Back
- Chest
- Arms
- Neck and face
This technique is ideal for removing up to 10 pounds of fat from these areas of the body and is particularly useful for people who are within 25 pounds of their goal weight but suffer from stubborn fatty tissue that will not respond to diet and exercise.
Abdominal Liposuction
Liposuction is a body contouring procedure and is not intended as a method of weight loss. If you have large amounts of belly fat, you may benefit from liposuction, but it may also be incapable of providing you with the results you desire.
For people with large amounts of belly fat, weight loss is often preferable prior to liposuction. It is medically unsafe to remove substantial amounts of fat with liposuction. In addition, removing too much fat can actually cause contour irregularities, rendering your procedure aesthetically displeasing.
An experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon will be able to assess the size and shape of your frame. Working with your proportions, he will be able to advise you if liposuction or another body contouring procedure will best meet your needs. If weight loss is necessary prior to a procedure, your plastic surgeon will be able to direct you towards resources to help you reach your goal weight before undergoing liposuction.
Liposuction is fantastic for body contouring after weight loss. Your plastic surgeon will be able to discuss this with you in full during your initial consultation.
Everybody is unique and the only way to determine what body contouring procedures are right for you is through a one-on-one consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon. During this consultation your desires will be listened to, your medical history evaluated, your entire frame assessed, and all of your options discussed.
If you are considering liposuction in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Gilbert, Chandler, Glendale, or surrounding areas in Arizona, please visit the website of board-certified plastic surgeon Bryan W. Gawley, MD, Plastic Surgery for additional information at www.gawleyplasticsurgery.com.
