Louisiana Liposuction

Louisiana liposuction expert Penelope C. Treece, M.D., says that liposuction leads the list of all cosmetic surgeries. But don't blame an overactive fork and spending too much time on the couch - fatty areas are often due to your genetics. Even people who work out and stay in shape have pockets of unwanted fat that no diet nor exercise will remove. The areas where liposuction has the greatest effects: the abdomen and waist area, the arms, back chin, neck, hips, buttocks, thigh ankles, calves and inner knees.

All Women Staff

That's where Dr. Treece, who leads a staff of all women can help. Because liposuction has been the most requested and performed cosmetic surgery procedure for a few years, the field is very patient-friendly. Moreover, most areas of your body can be liposuctioned, thanks to varying-sized suction wands, or cannulas, as doctors know them.

Flatten the Tummy

Dr. Treece uses the "tumescent" technique in which salt water, local anesthetic and a small amount of adrenaline to reduce bleeding is first injected. Small incisions are then made in the most inconspicuous spots. Fat is taken out with an instrument known as the Microaire, a small cannula that gently "vibrates" the fat cells apart, making the procedure less traumatic and painful.

Liposuction may be right for you if you are:

• A man or woman of normal weight who wants to improve your body shape and contours
• A person with good skin elasticity; when the fat is removed, a smooth appearance results
