Liposuction is usually performed on the abdomen, arms, neck, thighs, back, and buttocks.

Liposuction may be performed with the assistance of suction, ultrasound, or a laser to remove fat.

Dr. Henderson will examine you and help determine which technique is most suitable for you. She will then provide you expert treatment and care during the process.

Am I a good candidate for a liposuction?

Good candidates for liposuction have stubborn fat deposits that persist despite exercise and a healthy diet.

Ideal candidates have a healthy body weight with elastic skin.

It is important to understand that liposuction is for body contouring and is not a weight loss procedure.
