Liposuction
Two locations to serve New York City & Greater New York (Tri-State area)
Get rid of unwanted fat while creating natural-looking layers and contours
Liposuction is a great procedure for healthy patients who have more superficial fat in one area of the body than the others. If the skin has good elasticity, it will re-drape the area following the procedure and create a pleasing shape that is more harmonious.
Benefits of Liposuction
Through liposuction, patients rebalance their bodies in a natural way. The beauty of this is that with mild changes in weight, the new even fat distribution assures that you maintain your new shape. This results in a lifetime result that thrills most of our patients.

Introducing Fat Transfer
While liposuction focuses on removing excess fat, fat transfer takes this a step further by repurposing your natural fat to enhance other areas of your body, such as the buttocks and breasts. This dual approach not only reduces unwanted fat but also adds volume and shape where desired, offering a comprehensive body transformation.
Benefits of Fat Transfer:
- Natural Look and Feel: Uses your body’s own fat to achieve a more natural enhancement.
- Dual Benefit: Slims down areas with excess fat while enhancing other areas.
- Minimally Invasive: Less invasive than traditional implants, with a shorter recovery time.
Incorporating fat transfer with liposuction allows for a harmonious body contouring that aligns with your aesthetic goals. Our surgeons' expertise in these procedures ensures results that are both dramatic and delicately balanced.
