Can I lose as much fat as I want with liposuction?

While liposuction surgery does reduce the number of fat cells in the body, it is not a procedure recommended specifically to achieve weight loss goals. Liposuction is concerned with sculpting an area of the body to achieve a more pleasing appearance, rather than the loss of pounds.

What is the ideal shape for a liposuction candidate?

Liposuction has helped countless Pennsylvania patients get a more youthful contour, but you must meet certain criteria in order to be considered a good candidate for liposuction. Your Geisinger physician will help you decide if the procedure is right for you after a through health history and comprehensive evaluation.

Will my liposuction results look natural?

Your cosmetic surgeon is not only a board-certified physician, but also an artist who is part of the Geisinger team thanks to his or her ability to create beautiful liposculpting results.

What are the risks involved with liposuction surgery?

Patients getting ready for liposuction surgery should be aware of the risks associated with this procedure.
