Micro-Liposuction is a less invasive surgery procedure to permanently remove unwanted fat on of the face and body. Micro Liposuction is the ideal treatment for smaller, specific problem areas including under the chin and neck, bra line, and stomach pooch. The result is a slimmer, more contoured face or smoother silhouette. Micro-Liposuction is a in-office procedure performed in 30-45 minutes using local anesthesia. The downtime is minimal and the results are immediate.

Came to Dr. Cap for a micro liposuction procedure and it hasn’t been a full week yet but I love the results! From the very beginning, he and his staff were incredibly helpful and walked me through every step. Would highly recommend!
