If you’re like many of my patients, you probably spend a lot of time doing things for the people in your life: your kids, your spouse or partner, your co-workers, your parents, your friends. But do you ever take a step back and decide to do something just for you? Liposuction could be that turning point.
If you’ve tried dieting and exercise but still have localized areas of fat that simply won’t go away, liposuction could be the perfect solution. It slims and reshapes specific areas of your body by eliminating excess fat and improving your body contours, giving you a toned, curvy shape you can feel confident about. And the best part about liposuction: since fat cells do not reproduce, once they’re gone, they’re gone for good!
In addition to liposuction, I also offer a wide range of other body sculpting procedures to help you achieve a more shapely body, which you can learn about here.

Liposuction is often performed at the same time as other procedures for even better results
Liposuction can successfully be combined with other cosmetic surgery procedures such as a facelift, breast augmentation, tummy tuck or lower body lift. If you're interested in decreasing fat throughout your entire body, this will likely take multiple procedures.
What liposuction won’t do
Because every person’s body is unique and the amount and location of fat to be removed through liposuction vary from person to person, the exact cost of surgery is usually determined by a plastic surgeon after he or she has met with the patient and together, they have decided which and how many areas of the body are good candidates for liposuction in order to achieve the best possible results.
I perform liposuction at the Surgical Specialty Center of Westchester
For almost every plastic surgery procedure I perform, including liposuction, I use the Surgical Specialty Center of Westchester. Located in Harrison, NY, the Surgical Specialty Center has four operating rooms and an 11-bed recovery room. Each operating room is fully equipped with state-of-the-art anesthesia (provided by a board-certified anesthesiologist), emergency equipment and everything else I and my surgical team need to provide the highest standard of care to each one of our patients.

Insurance coverage
Insurance companies consider liposuction to be elective cosmetic surgery and therefore is usually not covered by insurance, meaning that patients pay the entire cost themselves.
