Press Release

Huntington Station, NY ( connect2business ) July 29, 2013 - For many people, diet and exercise are simply not enough to eliminate certain deposits of fat on your body. Despite being in good health, stubborn fat can appear and cause patients to feel self-conscious about their appearance. Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Charlotte Rhee sat down discuss the options patients have for eliminating this unwanted fat.

"If natural weight loss methods have proven ineffective against stubborn fat deposits, liposuction offers a solution," Dr. Rhee explains. "This procedure works to remove fat from targeted problem areas, helping to provide a more appealing contour to one's body. A minimally invasive option, liposuction can help restore confidence to those who may have been unhappy with their appearance."

When asked how the liposuction procedure is performed, Dr. Rhee went on to explain: "The fat may first be altered for easier removal using lasers, anesthetic, or ultrasound energy. Using a small tube known as a cannula, fat from the targeted area is suctioned out through small incisions. The incisions are small enough that they will heal without the assistance of stitches, and lasers may be used to tighten skin after the procedure."

"After we perform the procedure, patients usually take a few days before returning to work and other activities," Dr. Rhee continues. "Strenuous activity like exercise should be avoided for a few weeks, and results will begin to appear gradually. The results of a liposuction procedure can last permanently, as long as patients are committed to maintaining a healthy lifestyle."

To conclude, Dr. Rhee offered: "If you are interested in liposuction, be sure to consult with an experienced, board certified doctor. Liposuction is not designed for major weight loss, so patients should have realistic expectations regarding the outcome. I encourage all interested patients to contact us and find out more about the benefits and effectiveness of this procedure."
