A book by Dr. Jeffry, Schafer

A PATIENT’S GUIDE TO LIPOSUCTION,

How to Make an Informed Decision, published by Outskirts Press.

Called “The Father of Modern Laser Liposuction,” Dr. Schafer draws from his three decades of experience in liposuction and body sculpture to educate readers about liposuction techniques, so they can confidently select both the procedure and the surgeon right for them.

Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic procedures; it alters a patient’s appearance: tummy, arms, thighs, buttocks, face, jowls or even the neck. Techniques have improved, procedures are safer than ever, and Lipo technology has flourished.

Men and women dissatisfied with body appearance, whether genetic or altered, often find that diet and exercise alone don’t give them the shape and definition they desire. Choosing a liposuction procedure should be taken seriously, and with adequate research. This book will assist you in making that decision.

Dr. Schafer has put his years of experience and insights into an easy to understand format. He answers any questions a reader could have about liposuction.

He discusses all current surgical techniques and gives an objective opinion on the benefits and risks of each procedure. He provides a format for selecting a surgeon based on a thorough interview and suggests questions to ask each potential physician.

“Liposuction is my personal passion,” Dr. Schafer says. “You could say I express my creativity by sculpting bodies.”

This guide provides a series of actual before and after photos intended to help readers form realistic expectations of what liposuction can and cannot do.

A Patient’s Guide to Liposuction provides all the information — and dispels the myths — to make an informed decision about this life-altering cosmetic procedure.
