What Is Liposuction?
Liposuction is a minimally invasive procedure designed to remove stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise. It targets areas like the abdomen, thighs, arms, back, and chin, providing a more contoured and proportional look.
Detailed Procedure Overview
Dr. Kamel performs liposuction using state-of-the-art techniques to ensure optimal results. The procedure begins with a small incision near the targeted area. A thin tube, or cannula, is inserted to break up and suction out fat deposits. Advanced technologies like tumescent liposuction or laser-assisted liposuction may be used for enhanced precision and minimal discomfort. Patients can expect the procedure to last 1-3 hours, depending on the treatment area, with recovery tailored to their specific needs.
“For years I’ve always wanted a breast lift but I’ve always been hesitant. Not really sure why. I guess finding the right doctor played a major part. Dr. George Kamel came highly recommended by one of my coworkers and After meeting him I understood why… Very genuine & professional ! Let’s just say you won’t be disappointed with the results. I absolutely love my new tatas. He is the Best of the Best. Ladies, he’s really easy on the eyes too… And the office staff were super helpful and very nice!“Erin P.
