What Body Areas Can Be Treated with Liposuction?

    NEW YORK, NY, August 30, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Liposuction is the most popular body sculpting procedure performed in the United States. Frequently included in various plastic surgery procedures, liposuction is an effective and permanent way to remove stubborn fat from nearly every area of your body.

Liposuction can be used to remove fat from:
- Legs - including ankles, calves, knees, inner and outer thigh
- Midsection - including hips, waist, buttocks, flanks/lower back, abdomen, bra-roles/mid back, breasts/chest, arms
- Neck, chin, and face

Clearly, liposuction can be used to target any area of your body with stubborn, excess fat. Your liposuction surgeon will be able to assess your body and help you determine the areas that could most benefit from this particular procedure.

Candidates for Liposuction
Good candidates for liposuction should have excess fat in one or more parts of their body that will not respond to diet or exercise. To be an ideal candidate for liposuction you need to be committed to a healthy lifestyle and within reach of your goal weight. Liposuction can be used to safely remove up to ten pounds of fat from various areas of your body, but is not a weight loss tool.

Candidates for liposuction should be:
- Nonsmokers
- In generally good health
- Prepared for a surgical procedure
- Prepared for a recovery period
- Aware of any risks associated with liposuction

Good candidates should also have realistic expectations. Liposuction can remove fat from your body, but may not produce the exact results you want. It is best to discuss what you can expect with an experienced liposuction surgeon before you commit to this procedure.

Once fat is removed it cannot come back. This does not mean that new fat cannot accumulate. To maintain your liposuction results you will need to adopt a healthy lifestyle. More information about what will be required to help keep you looking and feeling your best after liposuction will be provided by your liposuction surgeon.
