    Thank you for this question that many women struggle with. Like other elective surgeries, there are potential complications, though rare. Bleeding, infection, scarring, nerve injury, or loss of tissue due to poor circulation can occur. Many complications are minor and can be dealt with. Others are more serious such as a blood clot in the leg or pulmonary embolism. Many of these complications can be avoided by having a proper consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon.

  • What are the risk factor associated with a plastic surgery?

    There are many potential risk factors associated with plastic surgery. However in most people complications are extremely rare. Some of the more common complications are bleeding, infection, asymmetry, implant malposition or failure or rupture, capsule contracture, or need for additional surgery. However all these complications are explained in consultation and are rare. The risk of complications for all these issues should be less than 4-5% in elective surgery. Factors which can increase the risk of plastic surgery include obesity, diabetes, heart or lung conditions, and endocrine conditions, or poor expectations regarding plastic surgery. That being said, the chances for high satisfaction and excellent outcomes are very high. A full consultation by board-certified plastic surgeon will help you make a good decision for yourself.

  • Does liposcution help one lose weight or does it only tighten the skin?

    Thank you for your question. Liposuction is almost never a way to lose more weight. In fact, fat weighs less than water, so you may in fact only lose 1-2 lbs after a typical liposuction procedure. It also does a relatively poor job of skin tightening in and of itself. However, other modalities such as Vaser can improve upon this. A consultation is the best way to see if you are a good candidate for liposuction. READ MORE
