Female Liposuction Gallery Plastic Surgery in Austin | Patient 05

Patient Details

This is a 37 year old female who is 4’11” and 137 pounds who presented to me for body rejuvenation options. She was overweight, has great skin and has some lipodystrophy on her trunk and extremities.

She is seen here after a big liposuction of 4400cc of fat. She lost eight pounds since her procedure.

Lessons to learn:

1. Liposuction is a safe, reliable and very powerful procedure when in the right hands.
2. Liposuction is not for weight loss. It can help motivated patients to help lose weight the old fashioned way—diet and exercise.
3. Choosing who is a good candidate requires skill and judgment.
4. Don’t consider liposuction if you are overweight and you are not able to control your weight.
5. It doesn’t hurt to have great skin when considering liposuction.
6. Liposuction is art and your doctor determines your result—NOT A MACHINE.
