What Makes Liposuction Effective
When dieting and exercise fail to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat, many people turn to liposuction. This procedure helps to remove fat cells from areas that are not responsive to healthy lifestyle choices. It is important to note that while liposuction is highly effective for smoothing out troublesome areas, it is not a treatment for significant weight loss. If you are near your ideal weight but are having trouble toning specifics parts of your body, liposuction can be used to eliminate bulges created by excess fat.
What Liposuction Can Do for You
Several different types of liposuction procedures are available, and recent advancements in technology have made it possible to undergo the treatment under local anesthesia and experience shorter recovery time. Liposuction is commonly used to remove fat from the following areas:
- Chin and neckline
- Back
- Upper arms
- Stomach and waistline
- Hips and buttocks
- Thighs and knees
- Calves and ankles
Liposuction surgery has grown with modern technology and provides real results with minimal downtime. Laser-assisted liposuction is particularly effective in safely breaking up fat deposits in the neck and the backs of the arms. Ultrasonic liposuction works well for treating more fibrous places in the body, such as rolls of fat along the bra line, in the front and the back of the body. The results you experience with liposuction surgery will last longer if you follow a healthy diet and exercise program.
By utilizing a combination of modern technology and traditional techniques tailored to suit each situation, The La Jolla Institute of Plastic Surgery helps you obtain the most effective results from your liposuction treatment.
