- Do you dread shopping for bathing suits - especially that moment when you see your derriere in the dressing room mirror?
- Do you walk down the beach tugging at your bathing suit bottom, self-consciously trying to cover your buttock?
- Do you envy women who can "walk away proudly" in a swimsuit, knowing they look great from all angles?
If any of these describe you, we've got a solution. But before you can take advantage of it, please erase this myth from your mind: "Lack of will power is what keeps most people from losing that last 10 pounds."
FACT: Many people's bodies reach homeostasis at 10 or 15 pounds above the "fashionable" weight dictated by society. They're genetically programmed that way. |
Hard-Wired to be Different
Many women's' metabolisms, hormones and dozens of other balancing mechanisms in the body are hard-wired for a different look than the one in the fashion magazines.
They might be pear-shaped, hourglass-shaped or just generally zaftik. It's the way their ancestors looked. It evolved in cultures that had different climates, foods and attitudes than ours.
Fish Out of Water
These unfortunate people spend their lives as "fish out of water."
They jump through hoops trying to "will" the fashionable body circa 2008 A.D. It's a losing battle - one that carries a terrible payload of discouragement.
| Liposuction Can Help Your Self-Esteem |

Exasperated
Most of the patients who come to a consult to discuss liposuction are at exactly this stage of exasperation. They've tried every diet on the planet. They exercise a few times a week.
But those stubborn areas of fat won't disappear.
They want an answer. Liposuction is often the answer they've been waiting for.
Improved Contours
After their surgery, their contours are improved, misplaced fat cells have been permanently removed, and they no longer face a daily struggle against the inevitable.
These patients continue to watch what they eat and exercise regularly. Liposuction isn't a reprieve from self-discipline.
Lipo Pushes the Re-Start Button
But it evens the playing field. It presses the "re-start" button on your body so you continue life on a doable maintenance program - not an uphill sprint against reality.
Ultrasonic Liposculpture
We use Ultrasonic Liposculpture (UAL) to re-contour your body so you can wear today's fashions, including swimsuits.
UAL was developed to add precision to the fat-removal process. With UAL we can target fat cells in the upper thigh and buttock area precisely. The results are better than with traditional liposuction. The fat is removed more easily, with less stress to the body, and the result is smoother and more streamlined.
Is the fat removal permanent?
Yes. The fat cells in the treated areas are gone. The localized fatty deposits that existed prior to liposuction can no longer balloon up out of proportion to the surrounding areas.
Should you gain weight after liposuction, the fat will be deposited in different areas of your body, but proportionately.
How will my skin look after surgery?
The changes following liposuction are similar to what you'd see if you could lose an equal amount of localized fat through diet and exercise.
As with diet and exercise, dimples, ripples and stretch marks can't be removed.
Will UAL get rid of cellulite?
UAL is not a treatment for cellulite. We have Endermologie for that!
What will my recovery be like?
You will wear a snug elastic dressing, girdle, or body stocking over the treated area for the next several weeks.
- You'll go home after the procedure and rest for at least 24 hours.
- After 2 or 3 days you may resume non-strenuous activities.
- You may gradually increase your activity as tolerated.
- Serious exercise will have to be postponed for 14-30 days or more.
It's Worth A Little Discomfort
Have you finally had it with diets, weight-resistance machines and always hiding your thighs and buttocks from public view?
Then come in for a consultation. We'll show you what we can do, based on results we've given to hundreds of other patients. We'll let you decide. Will this be the year you sashay down the beach proudly, your mind free to savor your surroundings?
We hope so.
