Your liposuction procedure at our Phoenix, Arizona office can help tone and sculpt your body to its most ideal proportions. Liposuction is very effective at removing targeted pockets of stubborn fatty tissue that will not respond to diet and exercise. However, it is not considered a weight loss procedure and is best for people who are within reach of their goal weight.

Belly Fat

Liposuction can safely be used to remove several pounds of fat from your abdomen. However, if you have a large amount of belly fat, weight loss is recommended prior to this procedure. Many men and women find that lifestyle changes can bring them within reach of their goal weight, but belly fat is particularly tenacious and may not fully respond to diet and exercise. This is where liposuction can be used to provide you with the final sculpting you have worked so hard to achieve.

If your belly fat is significant, you may want to consider bariatric surgery. Liposuction and a tummy tuck can provide body contouring after weight loss, but you must be close to your goal weight for these procedures to offer their full advantages. Our board-certified plastic surgeons can discuss all of this with you during your initial consultation.

If you live in Phoenix, Scottsdale,Gilbert, Chandler, Glendale, or surrounding areas in Arizona and would like to learn if liposuction can help you reach your goals, please contact Gawley Plastic Surgery to schedule an initial consultation today.
