Liposuction

Sculpt and refine your body contours by removing stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise

Overview

Precision Body Sculpting

Liposuction is one of the most popular body contouring procedures, designed to remove localized fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Dr. Michael C. Glafkides uses advanced tumescent liposuction techniques to sculpt and refine body contours with precision and artistry.

With 35 years of surgical expertise, Dr. Michael C. Glafkides understands that successful liposuction is about more than just fat removal—it's about creating smooth, natural-looking contours that enhance your body's proportions. His meticulous approach ensures even results with minimal downtime.

Liposuction can be performed on multiple areas including the abdomen, flanks, thighs, arms, back, and chin. It's often combined with other procedures such as tummy tuck or breast surgery for comprehensive body transformation.
