Liposuction

From our doctor:

“On the abdomen, hips, arms and legs where there are more fat cells, excess weight is more visible. Methods that require patience and continuity such as exercise and diet are usually not very effective in getting rid of fat tissue in these resistant areas.  Liposuction is a procedure based on the removal of fat tissue with the help of a thin cannula. This procedure is one of the most frequently performed procedures carried out by plastic surgeons all over the world because of its quick, effective and successful results.”
