Contour, Precisely Considered.
Liposuction at Zohar is focused body contouring performed under local anesthesia by Dr. Elan B. Singer, a board-certified plastic surgeon. Treatment is limited to one or two areas — such as the neck and arms, or the abdomen and flanks — so the procedure stays comfortable, precise, and recovery stays light.

About
Liposuction removes stubborn fat that does not respond to diet or exercise — the pocket at the neckline, the fullness at the flanks, the softness that hides the contour you work for. At Zohar, Dr. Singer performs liposuction under local anesthesia, deliberately limited to one or two body areas per session. That focus keeps the procedure comfortable, the sculpting meticulous, and the recovery measured in days rather than weeks.
What Liposuction Treats
Liposuction is not weight loss — it is contouring. It addresses the discrete areas where fat settles and stays: under the chin and along the neck, the upper arms, the abdomen, the flanks.
By removing fat cells from a targeted area, the silhouette changes in a way that diet and exercise alone often cannot achieve. The result is proportion — the body reading the way you intend it to.
Why One or Two Areas
Performing liposuction under local anesthesia means working within a comfortable, safe scope — and that scope is one or two body areas per session. Pairings like neck and arms, or abdomen and flanks, are ideal.
This is not a limitation so much as a philosophy: smaller, focused procedures mean no general anesthesia, a gentler recovery, and a surgeon whose full attention is on a single, carefully sculpted result.
The Zohar Approach to Surgery
Your consultation is with Dr. Singer directly. He will assess the areas that concern you, tell you honestly what liposuction can and cannot do, and design a plan around your anatomy.
Dr. Singer is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery with fellowship training in aesthetic surgery and specific expertise in body contouring — including abdominoplasty, body lift, and liposuction.
