Candidates-Liposuction in San Diego

Liposuction can remove small, localized concentrations of fat in specific areas such as the thighs and abdomen, but it is not an effective weight control treatment. In most cases, 10 pounds of fat or less will be removed. Because of this limitation, patients who are of healthy weight yet have stubborn deposits of fat that are unresponsive to diet and exercise are the best candidates for liposuction surgery. For these patients, liposuction is an ideal means of contouring the body into a pleasing shape that enhances the patient's natural curves without sacrificing a natural look.

Results

The full results of liposuction will be visible several months after the surgery as the body grows accustomed to its new contours. During this time, skin will tighten around the treated area and swelling will subside. Liposuction scars are small and usually Dr. Mark Mofid is able to place them in areas where they will not be noticeable. These scars begin to fade just a few weeks after surgery. Before long, liposuction patients are able to enjoy the new confidence they have in their bodies. When patients finally feel comfortable in their own skin, the difference is evident in everything they do.
