LIPOSUCTION
PHOENIX, AZ
Since liposuction can remove excess fat from any targeted part of the body, it’s a procedure of choice among many cosmetic surgeons and patients. Dr. Jude LaBarbera uses liposuction to help achieve contour improvements in the upper arms, face, neck, abdomen, and other areas of the body.
Although liposuction is very popular with patients who are looking to achieve a slimmer contour, it’s not an appropriate method for achieving weight loss. Dr. LaBarbera and many Scottsdale, AZ liposuction surgeons recommend that individuals receiving this procedure should be at or near a stabilized weight.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Is liposuction a safe procedure?
Does liposuction lead to permanent results?
Does liposuction tighten skin?
The goal of liposuction is to remove excessive fat in trouble areas (thus improving the shape and contouring). It does not address the drooping or sagging skin that may be left behind. If skin laxity is a problem, patients are advised to talk to their cosmetic surgeon during their consultation visit. Options for improving skin texture such as tummy tuck, thigh lift, neck lift, arm, and butt lifts are available.
