Body Contouring
Body contouring has become increasingly popular with a procedure such as Liposuction. With Liposuction Los Angeles residents and out of town patients have been able to treat areas of the body such as the arms, midsection, flanks, and thighs that may make the body seem disproportionate. Liposuction entails the use of a cannula to suction excess fat from the targeted area. Before a Liposuction, there are many determinants of patient candidacy aside from medical history. The area is examined for skin laxity and the amount of fat to be removed. For specific areas like the abdomen, a plastic surgeon may recommend a Tummy Tuck procedure for optimal results. A Tummy Tuck, or Abdominoplasty, uses Liposuction for the removal of excess fat, but a technique is also implemented, tightening the underlying muscles for better results. Some patients may not need an Abdominoplasty as their underlying muscles may be strong enough to receive desired results with Liposuction alone.
