Advanced Liposuction Techniques

Dr. Keith Hurvitz utilizes multiple sophisticated liposuction methods, including Tumescent, Smartlipo, CoolLipo, LipoLite, and ProLipo Plus. Each technique is carefully selected based on the patient's unique body composition and aesthetic goals.

Ideal Candidate Characteristics

Adults within 30% of ideal body weight
Firm, elastic skin with good muscle tone
Healthy individuals without life-threatening conditions
Non-smokers with realistic body contouring expectations

Comprehensive Surgical Approach

The liposuction procedure involves using a small stainless steel cannula connected to a powerful suction pump. This precision instrument is inserted through minimal skin incisions to remove subcutaneous fat, effectively reshaping body contours and improving overall appearance.

Patient Expectations

It is crucial to understand that liposuction is a body contouring procedure, not a weight-loss solution. The technique targets specific fat deposits to enhance body proportions and boost self-confidence.

Recovery and Healing

Following liposuction, patients will wear a post-surgical elastic garment to control swelling, reduce bruising, and support optimal healing. Adhering to Dr. Hurvitz's personalized recovery instructions ensures the best possible results.
