Best surgeon in US for leg, inner thigh, calves, and ankle liposuction?

Question

Surgeon that primarily uses laser liposuction for the procedure. Miami would be great but open to anywhere in the US. From my research I have found that the results can appear lumpy and uneven which is a concern for me. I am 34 - 5'8 - 155 pds and I carry most of my weight in my lower half. I also have fair thin skin. Thanks.

Hi! All you can do is look at photos and videos of patients who have had successful lipo to the lower extremity. We have pts fly in from all over the world which just tells you that leg lipo is a highly specilaized area. Please watch lots of videos and make sure that you are well educated before choosing a surgeon! 
All the best on your journey!

Liposuction of the calves/ankles need to be done by only the very best when it comes to liposculpting. Be sure your doc does it under tumescent local with the very small micro canulas ( not under general or laser ).  Your doc should stand you up and have you turn in all positions during the procedure to fine tune the results. It is very time consuming but so worth it. All docs do liposuction but seek out the few of us who really specialize in it. It is worth traveling for quality results.

For best results, I recommend a hi definition procedure like VASER liposuction. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contour and definition. This combination will give you the most toned result. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi definition physique expert. You'll want to see a board certified doctor with skill, expertise, and the best techniques with hi definition liposuction. Look at doctors who do live filmings, teachings, and have good before and after photos on social media sites!  Best, Dr. Emer

browsing999.  The most important factor regarding your liposuction procedure is your surgeon and his or her skill and experience, NOT the type of liposuction machine being used! There are lots of slick ads promoting different machines promising to shrink skin and remote stretch marks and cellulite. However, buyer beware, as there are no reputable scientific studies demonstrating superiority of these machines over traditional liposuction machines! Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon to give yourself the best chance for the result you desire. Good luck!

Thanks for the question, you are correct in that you should seek treatment from someone who focuses on the surgery of your interest. I believe using VASER or ultrasound energy to melt the fat and preserve blood vessels and connective tissue in connection with power assisted liposuction and plasma skin tightening gives the best lower extremity results. Its also important for your surgeon to have an experience manual lymphatic drainage specialist in the office as I do to help guide and promote your healing!
