Liposuction continues to be one of the most sought-after cosmetic procedures because it offers precise body contouring where diet and exercise often fall short. Dr. Daniel Medalie, a board-certified plastic surgeon in Cleveland with decades of experience, uses advanced liposuction techniques to help patients refine their shape and enhance body proportions. His approach focuses on natural-looking results and patient safety through every stage of treatment.
Some key areas that liposuction targets, include:
1. Abdomen and Waist
The abdomen and waist are among the most popular areas for liposuction. Even patients who maintain a healthy lifestyle can develop stubborn belly fat that’s resistant to exercise. Liposuction in these areas can sculpt the midsection, define the waistline, and create a smoother transition from the ribs to the hips. Dr. Medalie often performs power-assisted liposuction to efficiently and evenly remove excess fat for a flatter, more toned appearance.
2. Hips and Flanks
The hips and flanks — better known as “love handles” — are another highly effective area for liposuction. Removing fat in this region enhances the body’s contours from both the front and back view. For many patients, this improves the fit of clothing and creates a more balanced silhouette. Dr. Medalie carefully targets fat deposits to maintain harmony with the rest of the body.
3. Thighs and Knees
Excess fat in the outer and inner thighs can create a bulky or uneven look. Liposuction in this area helps smooth the contours of the legs and can reduce friction where the thighs meet. When performed near the knees, it refines the overall leg shape and enhances definition. Dr. Medalie’s precision ensures natural transitions between treated and untreated areas for a consistent, symmetrical appearance.
4. Neck and Chin
Liposuction for submental fat (located beneath the chin) is a small but powerful procedure that can make the entire face appear slimmer and more youthful. By removing localized fat under the chin and along the jawline, Dr. Medalie achieves a refined neck contour that enhances facial definition.

While these are the most commonly treated areas, many other regions can benefit from liposuction, including the upper arms, back, chest, and even around the ankles. Dr. Medalie tailors each treatment plan to a patient’s unique anatomy and desired results.
