Liposuction Before & After Case 179

This 33-year-old woman had liposuction done by another surgeon and was left with uneven thighs afterward. The surgeon had taken out too much fat from her lateral thighs, giving her an unnatural and asymmetrical appearance. Disappointed with the results of her previous surgery, this patient decided to look for a Los Angeles plastic surgeon who could help correct the look of her thighs. She made an appointment at Dr. Stoker's practice to find the help she wanted.

Her surgeon examined her thighs and concluded that power-assisted liposuction could dramatically improve her figure. Power-assisted liposuction is one method of liposuction where an electric motor assists the surgeon in moving the suction device, the cannula, to better remove fatty deposits. The added assistance makes the process easier for the surgeon and doesn't tire him or her as much as traditional liposuction.

By using this method, her surgeon was able to reinvent her figure, sculpting a streamlined and even body that looks younger and healthier. The "after" photos show this dramatic improvement two months after surgery. After having poor results from her previous liposuction surgery, this patient was thrilled with the results of her second surgery and glad that she had come to Dr. Stoker's practice for liposuction surgery.
