This patient was interested in getting a jump start on weight loss and contour improvement of her abdomen and hips with liposuction. She carried her excess weight primarily about her abdomen and hip rolls (which some people prefer to call "love handles"). Her expectations were realistic, and the patients goal was to lose inches, not pounds. Her surgery was done using Power Assisted Liposuction, which allows less bruising and more control than traditional liposuction techniques. These post-operative photographs are taken just three and a half months after her surgery. Liposuction gave her the kick-start she needed, and she has increased her exercise since the procedure. She was proud to tell us that she lost fifteen pounds and dropped two dress sizes. We certainly did not remove fifteen pounds of fat, in fact we probably only removed about four pounds of fat. It is great to see how liposuction combined with exercise can give such a great result.
