Reporter:
It looks like liposuction, the name even sounds like it,
but this new procedure called LipoSelection is supposed to be better
at removing fat.
Brenda Post-Brook has undergone both procedures and says LipoSelection
was gentler.

Patient / Brenda Post-Brook :
There wasn't pain, I didn't feel pain, in fact I wondered,
had he done anything because I didn't feel a thing.
The only way I knew that something was done was because there was
a tiny little dot where the incision was which was just one stitch
and that's how I knew he had gone in.

Reporter:
Dr. Daniel Man of Boca Raton has been offering LipoSelection
for the past two years. The technology used for LipoSelection is
not only gentle, it's so precise, it was originally used to treat
brain tumors.
|

|
Dr. Daniel Man:
The advantages of the LipoSelection is that it removes only the
fat, and other surrounding tissue like fibers and nerves and tissue
around it where the regular method sometimes damages it, and leaves
irregularities either by removing too much fat or causing some damage
to the surrounding tissue.

Reporter:
Recovery time is faster than lipo-suction. Patients are
able to return to their normal activities within days.

|
Patient / Brenda Post-Brook :
Two weeks after the surgery I took my twelve year old on
his school field trip to EPCOT, and that was from five in the morning
to eleven at night. So, I was okay to go with 200 six graders to
Epcot two weeks later.

LipoSelection can be performed under local anesthesia or
IV sedation. General anesthesia is not required. If you'd like more
