Liposuction is the surgical removal of unwanted fatty tissue using suction to enhance the body shape and proportions. This procedure can slim and reshape specific parts of the body that do not respond to exercise or diets.
It can be used to remove fat deposits of the:
Hips and buttocks
Thighs
Legs
Abdomen and waist
Back
Chest or breast area
Upper arms
Neck, chin or cheeks
Dr. Silberg’s technique is relatively pain free and produces very little bruising compared with older methods. With tumescent liposuction, there is virtually no blood loss, allowing the patient to return to work usually within a few days. A local anesthetic is used for most cases.
Liposelection is a marketing term you may encounter elsewhere to identify a brand product. It is an advertising ploy that does not have any special benefits.


External Ultrasound Assist:
This is a new method and technique for preparing tissue for surgery. A powerful ultrasound unit — the Silberg Tissue Preparation System — is used after infusing tumescent solution into the tissues to loosen the fat and make it easier to remove. There is less swelling and bruising, the recovery time is reduced, and less sedation is required during the procedure. Used all over the world, Dr. Silberg is the inventor of this technique.
