Advanced Body Contouring Liposuction in Richmond, VA | Richmond Surgical Arts, Inc.

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a precise body contouring procedure designed to remove stubborn fat deposits that resist diet and exercise. Unlike traditional weight loss methods, liposuction targets specific areas to sculpt and refine body shape. Once fat cells are removed, they do not regenerate, providing long-lasting results.

Key Characteristics of Liposuction

• Targets localized fat deposits
• Not a weight loss procedure
• Permanently removes targeted fat cells
• Requires skin elasticity for optimal results
