Plastic Surgery News Liposuction Goes Micro with New Procedure Offering Smoother Results, Faster Recovery, Less Pain and Bruising

Dallas, TX (March 30, 2006) – Liposuction, the most requested cosmetic surgery procedure, is now more effective than ever. Dr. Robert Schwartz, a board certified plastic surgeon and host of the Plastic Surgery Today radio show, is one of a few doctors in the Dallas metroplex offering LipoSelection, a revolutionary new liposculpture technique.

LipoSelection uses ultrasonic technology to gently remove unwanted fat. “We use slender ultrasound probes to liquefy the fat before we remove it. This makes the fat removal more precise.” says Dr. Schwartz. The sound energy acts primarily on the fat cells and has little, if any, effect on the surrounding tissues.

According to Dr. Schwartz, LipoSelection also means less downtime. “The biggest advantage of the LipoSelection system is that it produces smoother, better results. But because it’s gentler on the body, the recovery is easier with less pain, bruising, and swelling.” says Dr. Schwartz. “The smaller size of the LipoSelection equipment also allows us to use smaller incisions. That means tinier, less noticeable scars.”

LipoSelection isn’t just for the abdomen, thighs and buttocks. Dr. Schwartz uses the new procedure for the hips, knees, calves, ankles, chin, cheeks, and neckline.

According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, liposuction is the number one cosmetic procedure performed in the United States. In 2005, 324,000 patients had the procedure done. Dr. Schwartz says he believes advancements such as LipoSelection will keep the procedure forefront in the anti-aging movement.

Dr. Robert Schwartz is a board certified, highly credentialed plastic surgeon and host of Plastic Surgery Today on the top-rated FreeFM. He graduated summa cum laude from Yale University, was awarded a Regents Scholarship for academic excellence at UCLA School of Medicine, and completed his surgery residency at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center.
