Abdominal Liposuction (Liposculpture)
Years Performed: 24 Approx Cost with this Doctor:
Contact Office Physician's Approach:
The single most important principle is that liposuction is a shaping procedure. We are all born with a genetically determined fat distribution that many of us would like to change. Most of us have realized that even successful weight loss can't change the distribution of some fat. Liposuction allows us to permanently change the fat distribution by actually reducing the number of fat cells in a given area. Not only does this result in an improved profile, but fat density is permanently reduced. Ideal Candidate:

Cosmoderm and Cosmoplast (the human form of Collagen) are the first FDA-approved human collagen fillers for facial wrinkles. Unlike collagen, an allergy test is unneeded with Cosmoderm and Cosmoplast. Results can last up to six months. At this time the skin will have absorbed just about all of the natural collagen and the effects will have subsided. For this reason, repeat treatments are necessary.
