This case depicts a fit 24 year old woman who exercised and ate healthfully, but wished for her upper arms to appear more defined.

Ultrasonic liposuction was utilized to remove the relatively small amount of fatty tissue that was obscuring her musculature.

Even in fit and muscular individuals, fat can obscure muscle tone. The incisions necessary for this type of procedure are only several millimeters long and the results can be remarkable.

The post-operative photographs depict this woman's appearance approximately six weeks after surgery.

This case depicts a 47 year old woman whose concerns included that her lower body was out of proportion with her upper body. This body shape affected the way that her clothing fit. She underwent liposuction of the lateral thighs, medial thighs and medial knees, restoring balance to her body.

Liposuction, in this type of an individual, can increase fashion options, improve the fit of clothing and certainly increase self-confidence.

The recovery time varies with the amount of fat removed and the areas addressed. The post-operative photographs depict this woman's appearance approximately three months after surgery.

This case depicts a 34 year old man who was concerned with the appearance of excess fat above his buttocks.

In both men and women, this area is sometimes referred to as "the love handles," and it is especially responsive to liposuction.  I tend to use ultrasound assisted liposuction in this area because it allows me to remove fat more evenly and more thoroughly.  The incisions are easy to hide in most swimwear and the results can have a profound effect upon the male physique.

This case depicts a 45 year old woman who had concerns with excess fat above the buttocks.

This area was deeply out of proportion with the rest of her trunk and negatively affected the way that her clothing fit.  In both men and women, this area is often referred to as the "love handles."

Ultrasound-assisted liposuction was utilized to harmonize the appearance of the lower back with that of the remainder of her torso. The post-operative photographs depict this woman's appearance approximately three months after surgery.
        

This case depicts a 33 year old woman who had concerns with excess fat above the buttocks, around the waist in the back and around the bra area. Liposuction in the back has been greatly facilitated in my practice with the advent of ultrasound assisted liposuction.

This specialized method of liposuction uses ultrasonic energy to break up fat cells so that they may be removed more thoroughly and more evenlly.

I use this method of liposuction in the back and in other areas of the body where removal of fat with traditional liposuction is more difficult. The post-operative photographs depict this woman's appearance approximately three months after surgery.
