I am three weeks post abdominal liposuction. My doctor now informs me that I will need two therapeutic ultrasound treatments per week for the next eight weeks to achieve optimal results. At an additional price of $400 dollars. Did I just get ripped off or is this a necessary treatment?

Thank you for asking about your cheek liposuction.Usually if there is excess cheek fat, it is removed surgically (buccal fat removal).Facial liposuction can be done but it sounds as though you need liposuction of the lower face, not the cheeks.
Always see a Board

Liposuction of the flanks and waist is not included in full abdominal liposuction. Upper and lower front of your belly is considered full abdominal liposuction.
