Liposuction currently ranks as the number one procedure performed by a cosmetic surgeon, as per the ASAPS data for 2016. The procedure has a high success rate, but it is vitally important to choose a fully trained and experienced surgeon to achieve safe and desirable outcomes with liposuction.

Customized Liposuction Surgery
The tenacious and judicious Dr. McCluskey believes that to achieve deeply satisfying results with a procedure such as liposuction, it is important for a surgeon to customize the procedure according to the unique anatomical and personal cosmetic needs of a patient.

He combines the best principles of both science and art to produce outcomes that are not only healthy and sustainable, but also aesthetically appealing and natural looking.
Trust and Open Communication
Liposuction, like any other aesthetic surgery, is a personal journey for a patient. To achieve deeply satisfying results, patients should ideally choose a surgeon with whom they are able to establish a relationship of open communication and trust. The patient should feel free to share their inherent cosmetic needs and desires, and the surgeon should have the ability to carefully account for the patient’s specific needs and tailor the procedure around those needs.
Best results in procedures such as liposuction are typically achieved when the patient and surgeon share a robust personal rapport. Once a patient has chosen the right surgeon for their needs, they will feel reassured throughout the process from consultation to the actual surgery and recovery. The patient’s positive state of mind will make a difference to the final outcome.
Amazing and committed to his craft cosmetic surgeon Dr. McCluskey closely engages with his patients at every stage, and forms a healthy and vibrant relationship with them.
