Is lipo for the back of the leg (banana roll) too risky? (Photos)

The back of the leg is just one area where you need high quality finesse work done that derm surgeons have the extra training in tumescent liposuction under local anesthesia with the micro canulas and the ability to stand patients up and smooth areas that most plastic surgeons can't since they tend to use general anesthesia, larger canulas and don't stand patients up to fine tune the results. Typically, the smaller the canula, the smoother the result. Derm surgeons tend to use the smallest canulas and with ability to have the patients to move in all positions and see what needs to be done, we tend to get results that others can't get. This technique is a little more expensive but you are paying for quality and the results are so worth it. Yes, I think you could benefit from this technique. Sincerely,

Reducing your banana rolls, posterior upper thigh excess fat, if done properly and conservatively should give you improvement without making your buttocks drop.

  Due to the fact that there is little issue, the result will not be dramatic and will require both a conservative liposuction and attention to detail.  Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year.  Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
