Description
Liposuction stands out amongst plastic surgery procedures in that it can be used to address unwanted fat in virtually any area of the body, from the chin to the calves. Our board-certified plastic surgeon in San Antonio recommends this procedure for patients who struggle to eliminate stubborn pockets of fat with diet and exercise alone. We use safe techniques and use a conservative surgical approach to create the most flattering yet natural-looking results.
