Liposuction is such a safe and great procedure. It can be done all across the back and helps flatten buffalo humps nicely.
The back can be liposuctioned from top to bottom. The issue is frequently whether a significant amount of fat can be removed from a particular area.
Hi, Thank you for your question. Fat can be safely removed in the upper back. What is commonly known as a buffalo hump can be markedly improved using liposuction. I hope this helps. Best wishes,
This will depend on your in-person evaluation and desired results. This area needs a hi definition procedure. I use VASER HI DEF with ThermiRF and fat grafting to get the most fat removal, skin tightening, contouring and definition. You will want to see someone meticulous. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a hi-definition physique expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi; thanks for your question. In general, urinary catheters are only used in plastic surgery procedures when they are over 4 hours in length (this is a rough guideline for the amount of time it might take for the bladder to get too full during surgery). Since it is unlikely for a...
Thank you for the question. First it's important to figure out if you started something new that you are actually allergic to. A medication, food, clothing detergent? Be sure to eliminate something you started shortly before the itching. In most cases itching is not uncommon and is related to...
Thank you very much for your question, as it is a good one. Fat cells that have been eliminated through liposuction will not return. However, surrounding fat cells can still continue to expand with future weight gain. The weight gains and stretched tissues that accompany pregnancy and childbirth...
