Recently, our very own Dr. Kevin Calhoun was asked to visit San Diego's local channel 6, the CW to offer his expertise to the viewers of San Diego Living. Dr. Calhoun spoke about what prospective liposuction patients could expect from a body sculpting experience at Finishbody.
When it comes to an individual's overall health, most doctors focused primarily on visceral fat, that is fat surrounding the organs of the body. These fat cells can only be reduced in size but can not be permanently removed because of the location in the body. What is really exciting now is that there is new evidence emerging that show that subcutaneous fat may have a similar role or more of role in this same process.
Because liposuction is the most popular cosmetic surgical procedure performed today it doesn’t always mean patients are happy with their results. Oftentimes, today’s med spas will set up under the name of a medical director and patients unknowingly will come in and meet with a “consultant” which isn’t even an actual physician then go onto having their procedure with a Physician’s Assistant (PA) or Nurse Assist (NA).
