Los Angeles Liposuction Surgeon, Dr. Osman, Maximizes Skin Tightening by Combining SmartLipo and Thermage

    LOS ANGELES, CA, November 16, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures in Los Angeles. A fear that many patients have is that their skin will appear loose after the fat is removed.

While not every patient having liposuction will end up with loose skin, some may. Los Angeles liposuction surgeon, Dr. Lawrence Osman, notes, "Patients who already have loose skin, stretch marks, and poor skin quality to begin with are at increased risk for having loose skin after liposuction."

To minimize the risk of developing loose skin, Dr. Osman employs a liposuction technique that combines SmartLipo and Thermage. SmartLipo, a type of laser liposuction device, may tighten skin to a greater degree than traditional liposuction. Thermage is a laser-like device that uses radiofrequency energy to heat the skin triggering it to tighten. It can be used to tighten skin on the face and body.

Not everyone needs this combination approach because not every patient is at risk for developing loose skin after liposuction. However, for those patients at risk who are seeking liposuction in Los Angeles, the combination of SmartLipo and Thermage may be the solution for which they are searching.

Dr. Lawrence Osman is a board-certified dermatologist and liposuction surgeon in Los Angeles specializing in lipo using local anesthesia only, SmartLipo laser liposuction, and modern dermatology.
