 San Diegoplastic surgery -
La Jolla Cosmetic Surgery Centre patientIf you're considering liposuction, you've probably already tried dieting and exercise yet you're still bothered by some aspect of your shape. Our sugeons have significant experience performing liposuction and we can help you evaluate what's possible and what's not. Liposuction is often called liposcultpture to reflect your surgeon's ability to resculpt your body into a more pleasing shape. Sometimes no matter how much you diet or exercise Mother Nature needs a little nudge in the right direction. Our board certified plastic surgeons sit down with you in consultation and discuss your goals for your body. - Are you a woman dealing with genetic fat deposits that affect your ability to feel comfortable in your clothing?
- Are you a man who's worried about love handles that distract from an otherwise normal shape?
- Or, maybe you're like a 70-year old lady who didn't care about potential loose skin after liposuction, she just wanted her jeans to fit!
The most common reasons you may be a candidate for liposuction are if you have excess subcutaneous fat, which is resistant to diet and exercise. Liposuction may also be desirable if you wish to change the contours of your body. Commonly involved areas are your trunk, abdomen, waist, hips and thighs, inner knees, calves, and ankles. You may also be concerned about your neck (under the chin), upper arms and armpits. Men are sometimes concerned about fatty deposits on their chest/breasts. There is a non-surgical alternative to liposuction called Zeltiq™. Click to learn more about Zeltiq fat reduction. Most San Diego liposuction patients are near normal weight and desire permanent contour changes. Improvedliposuction techniques now allow larger amounts of fat to be removed safely.

Liposuction is intended to produce a permanent improvement in the contour and proportion of the treated areas. A more flattering figure or physique, in or out of clothing, is another goal of liposculpture. Liposuction can range from $3,600 - $8,800 depending on the area and amount of fat you wish to remove.
