Shedding Light on the Art of Liposuction: A Comprehensive Guide
Shedding Light on the Art of Liposuction: A Comprehensive Guide
As discussions about body confidence and self-care continue to take center stage in our society, one cannot overlook the role of plastic surgery in helping individuals achieve their desired body aesthetics. One highly popular procedure at the forefront of these transformations is Liposuction. At the practice of Dr. Hetal Fichadia, MD, located in the heart of Portland, Oregon, we are dedicated to shedding light on this medical art, showcasing its benefits, safety measures, and the extraordinary results it creates.
What is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a type of plastic surgery that targets and breaks up fat in certain parts of the body such as the thighs, abdomen and buttocks, prior to its removal through suction. By reshaping particular areas, it propels individuals towards achieving a more refined and toned contour. Our prime candidate for liposuction is typically someone in good health, within their ideal weight range but struggling with isolated, stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to diet and exercise.
Why Choose Liposuction?
This revolutionary body-contouring procedure offers a multitude of benefits. In the recent years there have been several different modalities available to target excess fat. However, liposuction remains the gold standard as the results are predictable, consistent and oftentimes, dramatic. Moreover, the psychological uplift from enhanced body image contributes significantly towards self-esteem and general life satisfaction. It is important to know that liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but rather it targets localized excess fat deposits for body contouring.
Safety Measures at Dr. Fichadia’s Clinic
Here at Dr. Fichadia’s office, safety sits at the heart of our practice. We follow stringent precautions and adopt the latest technology to ensure a safe and comfortable experience for all our patients. Liposuction, as with any surgical procedure, involves some inherent risks.
