DR. HOLZMAN: Liposuction is probably the most commonly asked for procedure and most commonly performed procedure at our practice. And it’s probably one of the most commonly performed procedures across the United States. Patients are now using this technique to treat stubborn areas of fat deposition that they can not eliminate through other means. I see a number of patients who are in really good shape, height and weight appropriate, exercise at the gym three times a week, but if you’re a guy they say you can’t get rid of the fat around their belly and on the sides. And the women can’t get rid of some of the fat on their upper thighs, on their belly, and on the flanks. And liposuction can help permanently eliminate those areas of fat deposits. The surgery is fairly safe, not that painful, and the recovery is fairly quick. And patients really get great results and they really are glad they did it.
