Liposuction Overview
Let’s begin by giving you an overview of liposuction. This is a process that involves slimming and reshaping specific parts of the body by getting rid of excess deposits of fat and improving the proportion and contours of your body.
There are a number of different parts of the body that liposuction can be used to treat. This includes your ankles, calves, neck, chin, cheeks, chest area, inner knee, back, upper arms, waist, abdomen, buttocks, hips, and thighs.
You can combine liposuction with a number of other plastic surgery procedures should you wish, for example, a tummy tuck, breast reduction, or a facelift.
