In her Portland-area plastic surgery practice, Dr. Elisa Burgess offers liposuction for fat removal from specific areas. Liposuction, or lipoplasty, is a procedure that removes excess fat from areas such as the abdomen, back, thighs, or neck using a specialized suction device. The procedure is designed to subtly improve trouble areas that don’t respond to diet and exercise. Oftentimes, liposuction may be done in conjunction with other cosmetic surgeries.
AM I A CANDIDATE?
If you are bothered by persistent, localized fat deposits on your body, you may want to consider liposuction with Dr. Burgess. The best results occur if you are at your target weight before surgery. If you have skin dimpling before surgery, you will still have it after surgery. You should not be pregnant, nursing, and preferably not smoking.
360 LIPOSUCTION
Diet and exercise are the most talked about habits to maintain your physique. However, stubborn pockets of fat can still accumulate where you don't want them. 360 Liposuction addresses the front and back to achieve comprehensive results. The most common areas for this procedure are the abdomen and the back.
WHERE CAN LIPOSUCTION BE PERFORMED?
When people think about liposuction, they usually associate it with having excess fat removed from their stomach or thighs. While these are two very common areas the procedure tackles, liposuction can also be performed on someone's chin or neck.
Liposuction can also be performed on your arms, back, breasts, and sides. When you book your initial appointment at Burgess Plastic Surgery, we will go over all your options with you so that you can have complete confidence knowing you're making the most informed decision possible.
