Liposuction removes areas of unwanted fat deposits. These deposits tend to be above the muscles for which they cover. While many fats react to diet and exercise, certain individuals still find themselves with these pockets of fat that do not. That is the ideal fat that liposuction can remove and provide a more contoured body profile for the patient.

No matter the modality, (whether laser, vaser, smart liposuction, ultrasonic liposuction) they all produce the same results. Through small incisions a liposuction cannula is inserted and fat cells are gently removed. Liposuction is the ideal procedure for removing small localized areas of fat to create a smooth, contoured physique.
