• You may have unwanted fatty deposits which you have been unable to diminish through diet and exercise.
  • These fatty deposits are commonly found in the area of the thighs, hips, tummy, buttocks, knees and ankles. The method through which these fatty deposits can be removed is called liposuction.
  • This procedure can also be performed to remove excess fat in cheeks, jowls, neck and chin areas. Facial liposuction can be carried out alone, or in combination with other facial lifting, eyelid correction, chin augmentation, nose correction, etc.
  • The fatty deposits are suctioned out by making a tiny incision through which a small tube or "cannula" is inserted. The tube is connected to a source of high suction and passed within the fatty tissue so that unwanted fat cells are loosened and suctioned away.
