Get the Fat Out

Many people find that as they age, they tend to hold fat in certain areas. These areas are commonly referred to as "stubborn fatty deposits" and can be difficult to lose with diet and exercise alone. Many people find that despite losing a ton of weight after embarking on a strict diet and heavy exercise regime, that they still cannot lose areas such as the upper and lower abdomen, saddlebags, inner and outer thighs, etc.

Many people chose to undergo a common surgical procedure known as Los Angeles liposuction. This body contouring procedure can eliminate fat cells and get rid of these areas once and for all. This procedure is done on an outpatient basis and can be done with different levels of anesthesia. Many people look into "liposculpture" procedures, which is in a sense, liposuction under local anesthesia as opposed to a light general. This procedure only takes a few hours and you go home that day.

We recommend to take a few days to a week or so off of work after undergoing this procedure, and most of our patients feel back to normal and are back to their normal, everyday activity within a few days or so. This surgery also helps put you into proportion and will help you stay in proportion for the majority of life. If you do go on to gain weight, you will no longer hold the bulk of it in these stubborn areas, but instead the fat will evenly distribute across the entirety of the rest of your body.
