Boynton Plastic Surgery Acquires Liposonix Technology

HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwire - Aug 1, 2012) - Boynton Plastic Surgery is proving their commitment to state-of-the-art body enhancement with their acquisition of the Liposonix System. Liposonix is a non-surgical alternative for achieving one's ideal body shape. Dr. James F. Boynton says that Liposonix is the "hottest new non-operative liposuction device," and as of this month, he is the first Houston plastic surgeon to offer the cutting-edge technology.

The Liposonix System will be an asset to Dr. Boynton, who emphasizes the aesthetic aspect of plastic surgery and places his attention on compassionate, personalized patient care. The innovative device provides doctors with a highly focused tool that offers Custom Contouring capabilities, helping patients achieve their individual goals. In addition, the liposuction alternative is a non-invasive procedure that utilizes high-intensity focused ultrasound (or HIFU) energy to target and destroy fat without harming the skin. The body's natural healing process will then remove the treated fat cells. While other ultrasound methods of body fat removal utilize low-frequency, low-intensity, or unfocused energy that lead to varying results and the necessity of multiple treatments, the Liposonix System takes approximately one hour and most patients see results after a single treatment.

On average, patients achieve a loss of one inch, dress size, or pant size within 8-12 weeks from having the treatment done. With this new technology in hand, Dr. Boynton is proving his dedication to innovation and his commitment to remaining a leader in the field of plastic surgery: "Patients want to improve the fullness around their waist and mid section that they cannot achieve through diet and exercise. However, they are not ready for surgery. There are many options for them, but I believe Liposonix offers the best science that destroys a portion of the fat cells in a non-invasive, safe and relatively pain-free way in an office setting. This is not intended to be a replacement for surgery, but is a good option for those who are either not ready for surgery or who cannot take the downtime. This is also something that can be done in a single one-hour session as opposed to some of the other non-invasive options that may take several multi-hour sessions."

Dr. Boynton's commitment to the needs of the individual at his Houston plastic surgery practice is evident not only in his acquisition of the Liposonix System -- a system created with the same goals in mind -- but also evident in the testimonies of his patients. One patient states: "I had the Liposonix treatment and totally love it. It took a little over an hour with little to no discomfort. I am amazed how fantastic it is. No downtime, no anesthesia, non-invasive. I literally got back into my car and drove home. I had a little bruising but no pain. The staff at Boynton Plastic Surgery had communicated so well to me what to expect from my procedure. There were NO surprises. Immediately, I could feel tightness where it was flabby before. I am recommending this to everyone."
