If you have tried dieting and exercise but still have localized areas of fat that simply won't go away, then liposuction is probably the answer to your problem. Liposuction may be used for contouring many areas: cheeks, jowls and neck; upper arms; breast or chest areas; back; abdomen and waist; hips and buttocks; inner and outer thighs; inner knees; calves and ankles. Liposuction can be performed on several areas of your body at the same time and can also be done in conjunction with other cosmetic plastic surgical procedures.

Fat is removed by first inserting a small, hollow tube, called a cannula, through one or more tiny incisions near the area to be suctioned. Incisions are usually less than one-quarter inch in length and are placed inconspicuously, often within skin folds or contour lines. The cannula is connected by tubing to a vacuum pressure unit. Guided by the surgeon, the suction device literally vacuums away the unwanted fat -- permanently.
