Liposuction - Dr. Lisa Sowder, Seattle Plastic Surgeon

Liposuction by Seattle Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Lisa Lynn Sowder

Case Description

1 of 12

This 22 year old crack Seattle softball pitcher had failed repeated attempts to reshape her midsection through diet and exercise. Her health was excellent and her expectations were reasonable. She knew I would not be delivering a 22 inch waistline or a six pack. She underwent two sessions of liposuction, 3 months apart which removed about 21 pounds of pure fat from her midsection. She can expect a lifelong improvement if she is able to maintain her new post liposuction “set point weight” of 164 lbs. So far, so good. She is highly motivated to protect this investment in herself.

This 32 year old gym teacher had stubborn fat deposits on her hips and lateral thighs. I removed about 5 pounds of fat which doesn’t seem like much but it was 4 pounds of fat exactly where it wasn’t appreciated. She doesn’t miss it one bit.

This 52 year old accountant disliked her heavy arms. She had excellent skin tone and elasticity for her age. Circumferential liposuction of her upper arms was very successful in improving her contour with minimal scarring. I also slimmed down her underarm area. She now feels comfortable wearing short sleeves.
