Liposuction

Do you…

• Dread shopping for bathing suits – especially that moment when you see your derriere in the dressing room mirror?
• Walk down the beach tugging at your bathing suit bottom, self-consciously trying to cover your buttock flab?
• Envy people who can “walk away proudly” in a swimsuit, knowing they look great from all angles?

You’re not alone. Many people feel self-conscious about their body shape. Diet and exercise are often simply not enough to get rid of stubborn pockets of fat. Nowadays, most people’s bodies reach homeostasis at 10 or 15 pounds above the “fashionable” weight dictated by society. It’s not always their fault; they’re genetically programmed that way.

Liposuction is a surgical procedure that uses a suction technique to remove fat from specific areas of the body such as the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks, arms, or neck. It is one of the most popular forms of cosmetic surgery that involves a minimally invasive procedure and uses small, thin tubes called “cannulas” through tiny incisions to remove unwanted pockets of fat.

What to Expect

Most of the patients who come in to discuss liposuction are frustrated. They’ve tried every diet on the planet, exercise a few times a week. But those stubborn areas of fat still won’t disappear. They want a lasting solution, and liposuction is often regarded as the best decision they’ve made.

Improved Contours

After surgery, their contours are improved, misplaced fat cells have been removed, and they no longer face a daily struggle against the inevitable.

These patients continue to watch what they eat and exercise regularly. Liposuction isn’t a reprieve from self-discipline.

Liposuction Pushes the Restart Button

But it evens the playing field. It presses the restart button on your body, so you continue life on a doable maintenance program – not an uphill sprint against reality.

Power-Assisted Liposuction

Dr. Chappell uses Power-Assisted Liposuction (PAL) to re-contour your body so you can wear today’s fashions, including swimsuits. PAL was developed to add precision to the fat-removal process. With PAL, we can target fat cells in the upper thigh and buttock area precisely. The fat is removed with greater ease, with less stress to the body, and the result is smoother and more streamlined.
