Patients come into my office wanting their thighs, abdomen, flanks, and arms improved. Despite diet and exercise, they are unable to loose the excess fat that has accumulated in these areas.

Liposuction is the solution. This is one of the safest procedure I perform. There is a lot of advertisements for some non-invasive procedures to correct this problem. Unfortunately, these other techniques result in minimal improvement. If a patient really wants to correct the bulges, liposuction is the only effective way to obtain excellent results. Be careful of newspaper and magazine articles proposing techniques that are not well studied and tested.

Women following childbirth develop aesthetic problems in their breasts, abdomen, and thighs. With pregnancy, women’s bodies stretch causing thinning of tissue, sagginess and stretch marks. Unfortunately, despite diet and exercise, the stretched and loose skin can only be corrected with surgery. Breasts also deflate following nursing which causes a decrease in breast size.

In order to correct these problems, breast augmentation, tummy tuck and liposuction may be indicated. All of these procedures may be done at the same time minimizing recovery time and cost.

Recovery time for all these procedures is approximately 2 weeks. Exercise may be resumed at 4 weeks. Women with young children should have help for one week. After this surgery, women are back to their pre pregnancy appearance.
