Understanding Liposuction: Precision Body Contouring

Excess fat can cause individuals to feel self-conscious and struggle with body image. Despite dedicated diet and exercise efforts, some fat deposits remain stubbornly resistant to traditional weight loss methods. Liposuction offers a surgical solution for permanently removing these persistent fat pockets and sculpting a more defined physique.

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction, or lipoplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to remove localized fat deposits unresponsive to traditional weight loss strategies. This technique can smooth and contour almost any body area, from the chin to the ankles, providing a permanent method of fat reduction and enhanced body definition.

Key Benefits of Liposuction

  • Achieve a flatter, more toned abdomen
  • Create more attractive body contours
  • Eliminate stubborn fat deposits
  • Enhance overall body proportion

Treatment Areas

Dr. Pollack offers comprehensive liposuction treatments for multiple body regions, including:

  • Abdomen
  • Hips
  • Thighs
  • Arms
  • Neck
  • Back
  • Chest

Candidate Qualifications

Ideal liposuction candidates are individuals who:

  • Maintain a BMI under 25
  • Are within 30 pounds of ideal body weight
  • Possess good skin elasticity
  • Have realistic aesthetic expectations

Procedure Overview

Liposuction is performed using local or general anesthesia. Small incisions are made in targeted areas, and a thin cannula is used to loosen and extract excess fat. The procedure is meticulously designed to create smooth, natural-looking results.

Recovery and Results

Most patients can return to work within one to two weeks. Compression garments are typically worn to support healing and optimize results. Final body contours become increasingly apparent over three to six months as swelling subsides.

I had a wonderful earlobe repair experience with Dr Larry Pollack. His office staff and nurse Kendall were extremely professional and kind. The process was quick and straightforward. The healing process is going perfectly and better than I expected. If you are thinking about repairing your earlobes after stretched ears, do it!!! I did my research for this and I am so happy with my results and choice! Thank you Dr Pollack & team!!!

I was referred to Dr. Pollack for breast reconstruction after being diagnosed with stage one invasive ductal carcinoma in Dec 22. Anyone who’s ever been through this understands how terrifying of an ordeal it can be. I am in my 40s and have two young kids. I have a HMO insurance but luckily Dr. Pollack was in my network. I was initially concerned about going through Sharp and wanted to go to UCSD’s cancer center but I’m so glad that I stuck with Dr. Pollack and his team. I had a double mastectomy with expanders and then an additional exchange surgery six months later for implants. I am about nine weeks post surgery from the implant exchange and very happy with the results. Breast reconstruction after mastectomy is challenging but I feel that Dr. Pollack did a wonderful job. There is a big debate between going under the muscle or over the muscle, Dr. Pollack mostly does over the muscle and I am so glad that I went with this option. Most importantly, he has been my calm in the storm throughout this process! Anytime I got worked up about something or researched a topic too much, he was always able to put my mind at ease. His many years of experience shows through his confidence and ability to put things into perspective. All the advice that he gave to me paid off in the end, and I really learned to trust his opinion. Even when it came to additional oncological care after surgery, he was able to steer me in the right direction and push for me to get additional opinions. He has a great way of simplifying difficult topics and talked me off the ledge (rather than walk me on to it like some doctors who lead with fear..) If you are unfortunate enough to be diagnosed with breast cancer, I would highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Dr. Pollack!

I went here for an earlobe repair surgery and it was a great experience. The surgery itself went seamlessly, but the experience in the office and with the staff was really outstanding. Would definitely recommend choosing Dr. Pollack and his team.

My wife had breast reconstruction performed by Pollack, due to a lumpectomy she had done earlier. After consultation, Pollack determined that he would not go in near her nipple, due to his concern about potential nerve damage since the nipple had been entered surgically twice previously. We agreed and yet, after her reconstruction, we saw that he went in through the nipple anyway! She now has no feeling in her nipple area. He also assured us he would balance her breast to the other breast and yet, he ended up with what appears to be one size smaller with implants? Upon his discovery of his mistake, he recommended liposuction of fat from her stomach area and put it in the breast, “hoping 70-80%” of the fat would remain? It’s been four months since the liposuction surgery and all the fat has left the area and appears to have migrated to her shoulder muscle, where it is causing discomfort. Pollack did a terrible job and would never go back to him, nor would we recommend him. The guy should retire.

Dr. Pollack and his staff are wonderful! They are very hospitable and made me feel so comfortable with having the tummy tuck procedure. Dr. Pollock answered all of my questions and helped me become well informed of what to expect. It’s been 5 months and I’m absolutely elated with the results. My confidence has risen and I’m loving the way my body looks and feels again. I couldn’t have picked a better candidate for this! Thank you Dr. Pollack and staff!
