Liposuction New York

Liposuction in New York with expert George Beraka, M.D. informs his patients that surgical fat removal is the number one surgical rejuvenation procedure performed in the United States today. Dr. Beraka is also an assistant professor of surgery at Cornell University Medical Center.

One of the many reasons for liposuction's popularity: New York liposuction patients report very few scars left on their bodies. In each treated area, there are one or two tiny (1/8 inch to 1/4 inch) scars which fade over time. Additionally, the procedure is available under a local anesthetic. That means less bruising, bleeding and a quicker return - usually about two days - to one's normal schedule and routines.
