A lot of patients—both men and women—come to me asking about liposuction. They want to know, how does it work? Are the results permanent? What exactly happens during the procedure? So I thought I'd address these questions here.

From my many years as a plastic surgeon, I've found that the more informed a patient is about a procedure, especially the benefits, risks and what results to expect, the more satisfied they are with the outcome. For more specific details, watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.

If you've tried dieting and exercising but still have stubborn, localized areas of fat that simply won’t go away, liposuction could be the answer you’re looking for. Liposuction can reduce even the most resistant fat deposits, giving you a trim, toned, curvy body you can feel good about. It slims and reshapes specific areas by eliminating excess fat and improving your body contours and proportion. To learn how liposuction works, watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.

As I often tell my patients, when you find out how many areas of the body CoolSculpting can treat, it might be hard to pick just one! In whichever area (or areas) you choose to be treated, CoolSculpting freezes and destroys your fat, which over time is flushed from your system, leaving you with a slimmer body. Even though the process is the same for every person, keep in mind that the best areas for CoolSculpting are going to be different for each particular body. To learn more about CoolSculpting, watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.

Many of my patients are looking for a way to remove unwanted fat, especially around their waist and tummy, without having surgery. CoolSculpting is a great way to do that. It's a non-invasive, non-surgical body sculpting  procedure that dramatically trims and tones your tummy and waist by freezing and then eliminating unwanted fat cells. To learn more about CoolSculpting, watch my short 2-minute video by clicking on the button below.

As they get older, many people’s butts droop and sag due to pregnancy, weight gain, weight loss, aging and genetics. A Brazilian butt lift (also called butt augmentation) is an excellent way to achieve a fuller, firmer, higher and more shapely derrière. It also can help women attain a more pleasing balance between the shape, size and contour of their butt in proportion to the rest of their body.

Possibly due to the popular influences of Latin American culture where more emphasis is placed on the hips and buttocks, more American women are now choosing to have a Brazilian butt lift (also called butt augmentation). This body sculpting  procedure is an excellent way to achieve a fuller, firmer, higher and more shapely derrière. It also can help women attain a more pleasing balance between the shape, size and contour of their butt in proportion to the rest of their body.
