Liposuction San Antonio by Earl E. Ferguson MD
Body Contouring Liposuction San Antonio, TX
Understanding Liposuction: A Precision Body Sculpting Procedure
Liposuction is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure designed to remove localized areas of body fat using a thin, hollow tube called a cannula. By inserting the cannula through extremely small incisions, excess fat is gently loosened and suctioned out, resulting in slimmer, more proportionate body contours.
Key Liposuction Characteristics
- Targets specific fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise
- Performed on areas including thighs, abdomen, arms, back, and more
- Not a weight loss method, but a body contouring technique
