Is liposuction a reasonable treatment for obesity?

Posted on September 30, 2010 by Dr. Kenkel

No, liposuction is not a treatment for obesity. Patients should be within 20% of their ideal body weight to be ideal candidates. An appropriate diet and exercise program is essential to achieve desired results with liposuction or any body contouring procedure.
