About Liposuction

Liposuction is a body contouring procedure that removes stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Dr. Lavey uses advanced techniques including tumescent liposuction, ultrasonic-assisted liposuction, and power-assisted liposuction to sculpt and refine your body contours with precision.

This procedure is ideal for individuals at or near their target weight who want to eliminate localized fat deposits and achieve better body proportions. Dr. Lavey's artistic approach ensures natural-looking results that enhance your existing body shape.
