Liposuction, also known as lipoplasty, is the surgical removal of
excess fat from areas that are often resistant to diet and exercise,
including the hips, thighs, abdomen and neck. Other common sites include
the arms, knees, calves and ankles.
Developed in the early 1980s, Lipoplasty offers significant advantages
over other methods of body contouring. Extensive scars are avoided
by working through small incisions - less than one-half inch in length
- made in the most inconspicuous areas, such as natural skin folds.
Most lipoplasty procedures can be performed on an outpatient basis
and usually involve only a brief recovery period.
Because of its safety and effectiveness, lipoplasty has become the
most common cosmetic procedure performed by plastic surgeons. It has
helped thousands of men and women eliminate unwanted fat and achieve
body proportions in harmony with their overall build.
