LOS ANGELES, Nov. 2, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading Beverly Hills liposuction expert, Dr. David Amron, was featured October 18, 2011, on NBC News.  The segment provided an in depth look at liposuction surgery and why it has become the most commonly revised cosmetic surgery today.   Dr. Amron gave valuable advice on the causes behind these high revision rates, how to avoid needing liposuction revision, and the secrets behind his unparalleled 1 in 1,000 revision rate.

In an up-close and personal interview, Dr. Amron explained the number one cause of botched liposuction results is poor technique by the surgeon.  He discussed the aggressive and often price driven marketing tactics used by many surgeons and how this should act as an immediate red flag for prospective patients, not as incentive for cheap fat removal.  Another risk many patients take is opting for new medical fads that claim miracle results.

"More often than not, these 'fad' fat removal procedures that are done with lasers or injections lead to botched bodies," says Dr. Amron.  "When working with these mediums, the surgeon has little control and so results are unpredictable.  Plus, many of these 'miracle' procedures are not time tested."

Dr. Amron also discussed the common difference between general cosmetic surgeons and dermatologic surgeons when approaching liposuction.  As a dermatologic surgeon himself, specializing in liposuction, Dr. Amron explained his preference for local anesthesia over general anesthesia, commonly used by general plastic surgeons. 

"By using local anesthesia, I am able to ask the patient to move in different positions during surgery for precise positioning, which allows me access at various angles that could not be reached under general," says Dr. Amron.  "This makes for better results, less risk, and faster recovery time."

The NBC segment also revealed Dr. Amron's simple solution to revision-free liposuction: finding the right surgeon.  Stressing the importance of becoming educated on a prospective procedure beforehand, Dr. Amron's website offers a comprehensive arsenal of self-written articles to keep patients informed of their options.  

Hopefully, after Dr. Amron's NBC interview, there may be less need for revision and many more liposuction success stories, the first time around.
