Liposuction
Microcannula power-assisted liposuction under tumescent local anesthesia, with or without light IV sedation. The procedure is finished with you standing at a mirror, and no stitches or compression garments are needed afterward.
Liposuction in Brooklyn with Dr. Leonard Grossman follows The Smarter Liposuction, his own protocol: tumescent local anesthesia instead of general anesthesia, tiny incisions that need no stitches, a finish with you standing at a mirror, and no compression garments afterward. He treats the abdomen, love handles, thighs, arms, back, neck and chin, and calves and ankles on Emmons Avenue, and most patients are back at work the next day.
Every area follows the same Smarter Liposuction principles, from the abdomen and flanks to the chin and ankles, with each plan tailored to the area and to your anatomy.
Microcannula power-assisted liposuction under tumescent local anesthesia, with or without light IV sedation. The procedure is finished with you standing at a mirror, and no stitches or compression garments are needed afterward.
Chin and neck lipo for a double chin or heavy neck, done under local or twilight anesthesia in about 30 minutes, with Renuvion tightening added when the skin needs it.
Slimming of heavy calves and “cankles” through tiny cannulas under local anesthesia, with no garments or narcotics and most patients back at work within two days.
Dr. Leonard Grossman performed his first liposuction under all local anesthesia in 1993. Today his Brooklyn lipo relies on microcannula power-assisted liposuction in a warm operating room, through openings so small that no suturing is required and scarring stays minimal. The plan is never identical from patient to patient: the areas, the amount of fat, your skin tone and your natural asymmetries all decide how he works. Because you are awake, you stand at the mirror at the end and the contour is refined until you are satisfied. In his words, “we are NOT finished until you tell us that you have achieved your goal.”
Women and men treated at the Brooklyn center, from flank and abdomen liposuction to neck and ankle contouring, with results followed for a year and longer.
Brooklyn lipo built on Dr. Grossman’s own protocol, from tumescent local anesthesia to a garment-free recovery.
His eight-point lipo method: no general anesthesia, a warm operating room, no stitches and no compression garments.
Your lipo is finished with you standing at a mirror, so you help decide when the contour is right.
Consultation, surgery and follow-up all happen at his fully accredited center on Emmons Avenue.
Most patients return to work the next day, exercise in three days and swim in open water in about a week.

Reconstructive and Plastic Surgeon
Dr. Leonard Grossman is a Brooklyn, New York City plastic and reconstructive surgeon with more than 30 years of experience and a pioneer of Organic Plastic Surgery, using patients' own fat in place of synthetic materials. He earned his medical degree from New York Medical College in 1985, completed his internship and General Surgery residency at Beth Israel Medical Center, and completed fellowships in Microsurgery at Montefiore Hospital and Burns and Reconstruction at Jacobi Hospital. In 1995 he completed a fully accredited plastic surgery residency at Scott & White Memorial Hospital in Texas; his practice reports he became the first American plastic surgeon to use Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction that year. He pioneered calf augmentation with fat grafting in 1995 and, by his practice's count, has performed more than 4,500 calf augmentations. He operates at his fully accredited (AAAHC) surgery center at 3039 Emmons Ave in Brooklyn. Recognized by the Castle Connolly Guide, Vitals.com and RateMDs.com, he is dedicated to privacy, professionalism, and helping patients make informed decisions about their care.
What liposuction costs varies significantly from one location to another and from one body to the next, so a citywide figure would mislead you. Dr. Grossman quotes liposuction individually after he examines you, because the price depends on how many areas are treated, the volume of fat and how delicate each area is. That single quote bundles the surgeon’s fee, anesthesia and the operating facility with the staff and all needed follow-up care. As an outpatient procedure it carries no hospital-stay charge, and Cherry and Prosper Healthcare Lending offer financing.
