About Liposuction
Despite diet and exercise, many patients have trouble getting rid of excess fat deposits. If you are one of the many people who desires a firmer figure, you may be an ideal candidate for liposuction, also known as “lipoplasty” or “suction-assisted lipectomy.”
With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Thompson has plenty of practice sculpting an uncooperative body into a new flattering shape. Our Santa Monica plastic surgery specialist can use liposuction to slim down areas, such as the:
- Neck and jowls
- Abdomen
- Flanks and inner thighs
- Knees and ankles
During surgery, Dr. Thompson uses a cannula, a tiny tube, that suctions fat from certain “problem areas.” The procedure typically takes between one to three hours, depending on the number of areas being treated. If you have an especially large amount of fat around your stomach, you may want to ask our Los Angeles surgeon if you also qualify for tummy tuck surgery.
