Liposuction is a method to remove unwanted fat from specific areas of your body that have been resistant to diet and exercise. Dr. Joshua Greenwald is a talented Westchester County liposuction surgeon, and frequently performs this procedure at his state-of-the-art surgical facility. Liposuction, also known as suction lipectomy or lipoplasty, is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to eliminate localized fat deposits. Traditionally, liposuction was used for recontouring the abdomen and hips; however, liposuction is now used in Dr. Greenwald’s practice to recontour and remove unwanted fat from just about anywhere on the body. Using advanced techniques such as Smart Lipo, Dr. Greenwald makes this procedure safe and comfortable for all patients.
Refinements in liposuction techniques including the use of smaller cannulas allows Dr. Greenwald to give you a precise result. Liposuction can be dome as an isolated procedure but may be combined with excisional surgery such as abdominoplasty if indicated. Except for large volume cases (more than 4 liters of fat removal), liposuction is an outpatient procedure.
More than 400,000 liposuction procedures were performed by board-certified plastic surgeons in 2006. Liposuction is routinely performed in Dr. Greenwald’s outpatient center.
