About Liposuction

Liposuction is one of the most popular fat loss treatments offered. It is a surgical procedure that uses Body Jet technology, a water-assisted suction technique, to target stubborn fat cells and extract them in order to produce a more contoured, slim silhouette in the desired areas. Board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Michael Suzman commonly performs this procedure to eliminate fat in the belly, back, legs, arms, and butt areas. It should be noted that this procedure is not performed as a way to address excessive weight loss, but rather is used to target areas that are resistant to diet and exercise. Dr. Suzman can sit down with each patient at WESTMED Group's Westchester County office in a one-on-one consultation in order to customize a treatment plan to suit the patient's needs and goals.  

Best Candidates

Liposuction is most commonly performed on the abdomen, hips, thighs, buttocks and even the neck. The best candidates for liposuction are those who are in good health and experience:

  • Excess fat deposits that cannot be altered with diet and exercise.
  • Disproportionate areas of the body.
  • Good skin elasticity.

Young 50's Woman for TT, Lipo and Facial Fat Transfer - Harrison, NY - Dr Suzman is a true professional and talented surgeon, from the beginning was honest what I should expect, I even got some hand holding when needed with all my questions and concerns. I highly recommend and am thrilled with my results. Also, the outpatient facility staff was incredible, caring and on top of their game, I felt very cared for by the Dr, Heather, the anesthiologist and the staff at surgery center.Unfortunately, the one turn off was the payment staff miscommunicated with me regarding Care Credit options and failed to assist when i realized what she signed me up for. I did not care for the poor follow up and this has tainted my view of my experience. Otherwise 5 STARS .

Dr. Michael Suzman performed a fat transfer to the face, chin augmentation, chin liposuction and scar revision. I was amazed at what I was seeing by the end of the first week post-op. I am now going on the fourth week and extremely pleased. Dr. Michael Suzman did an “awesome” job which actually exceeded my expectations something I believe he has a reputation in doing with his patients. His presence speaks volumes, you know you are in the presence of a plastic surgeon that has character, highly experienced, intelligent, professional, safe, caring and understanding. He walks in the spirit of excellence and has a passion in wanting to do and give his very best. Dr. Michael Suzman truly is an outstanding and exceptional physician that has a very warm and pleasant disposition. I highly and wholeheartedly recommend him and the wonderful staff at Westmed. I had a very rewarding and memorable experience. Thank you, Dr. Suzman, for helping make a dream come true!

Body Jet Technology

Water-assisted liposuction by Body Jet is an innovative technique that differs from traditional liposuction in that instead of destroying the fat cells it uses water vibrations to dislodge the fat cells for a less invasive approach. Since water-assisted liposuction is less invasive, a general anesthetic is not necessary, and a local anesthetic combined with a saline-based tumescent fluid will be injected prior to the Body Jet device being administered. The entire process is a more gentle fat reduction treatment than traditional liposuction, allowing the water to aid in the fat removal process for less recovery time and more precise results. 

What to Expect

Liposuction is usually performed as an outpatient procedure with the patient under local or general anesthesia. During the procedure, one or more small incisions will be made near the treatment site. A thin tube (cannula) is then inserted through the incision to loosen the excess fat, then suctioned out. The length of this procedure varies among patients, but it typically takes between 1-3 hours to complete. Following their procedure, patients should wear a compression garments for the first few weeks to reduce swelling and ensure optimal healing. Patients can expect minimal scarring at the incision site, but with proper scar management, it will be difficult to notice. In order for the results of liposuction to last, the patient should maintain a stable weight through a healthy diet and exercise.
