Liposuction Before & After Case 161

This 27-year-old woman already had a nice figure, but she was bothered by small fatty bulges that were obvious in certain clothing. Losing weight didn't make sense for this patient because she was comfortable at her current weight and felt that if she lost more weight through diet that her face and neck would look too lean. Instead, she began looking for a Los Angeles plastic surgeon who could help her remove those fatty bulges easily.

At Dr. Stoker's practice, she underwent power-assisted liposuction surgery to sculpt a more ideal figure. With power-assisted liposuction, the added assistance of an electric motor helps the surgeon more easily remove fatty deposits sometimes making the procedure more time-efficient. For this patient, the excess fat on her hips and legs was removed, leaving her body looking more streamlined and even. She also did not have to lose weight to achieve her results, which meant she could keep the shape of other areas of her body. After the procedure, she said she felt much more confident in her favorite bathing suit (pictured here) following the precise liposuction.
