The best liposuction technique is to find the best surgeon!!

The technology of liposuction, contrary to what the advertising would tell you, is to find the best surgeon who has the best training, talent and artistic eye. Also, you need a surgeon who knows to be conservative in some areas and more aggressive in others depending on how the skin elasticity is in different parts of the body. And one who will honestly sometimes have to tell you that you are not a good liposuction candidate. The problem for the patient is that there are... more

Liposuction of the abdomen and fat injections to the buttocks

Liposuctionis an excellent tool to remove unwanted fat from some areas, and now, even transfer that fat to other areas. When performing fat transfer and injections, I recommend using traditional liposuction so that the fat is not damages by heat. The areas that are liposuctioned will not "gain" weight as much as before. If the abdominal skin is loose, then abdominoplasty or a tummy tuck is a better option. Find a board certified plastic surgeon for a full consultation and recommendations. more

Any Doc can be great at liposuction if he/she has a lot of experience with their own technique.

Find a doc with a lot of yrs of experience and one who focuses the majority of his practice in liposuction. They should have a great repoire with you and be able to answer all your questions and show dramatic before and after photos. Sincerely, David Hansen,MD

The smartest thing about SmartLipo is the name. And in the hands of an inexperienced family doctor it can lead to a disaster... more

Liposuction technique more important than technology

If you are planning to use the fat for transfer to other areas then you definitely don't want a laser technique. Fat usually does not return to areas where it was removed but it is not a substitute for weight loss. Most important is to choose the right surgeon, not the technique.

Weight gain after liposuction

This is a commonly asked question but not so commonly understood. Our bodies exist in homeostasis. If we are gaining weight that means we eat more calories than we expend. If we lose weight we are using more calories. If our weight is somewhat overweight and yet stable, it means that we eat more calories than we need. if the amount of exercise and diet doesn't change after liposuction, then the same calories going in to our bodies after the procedure will put more... more

Best method of Liposuction

This is a recurrent question. Consistently, the answer has been the same. It is not the technique, it is the surgeon and their experience. Choose a surgeon with whom you are comfortable and who has significant experience with lipossuction. The non-treated areas remIn unchained from before surgery.

Best Liposuction Technique

I agree, it is the surgeon, not the technique- be sure to look at a lot of photo's and the surgeons credentials, not the type of technique they use!

I have been doing liposuction since 1982. It is not which type of lipo but the experience of the boarded PS, and if this experienced doctor has available all the types of liposuction (like I do). Be careful out there. From MIAMI
