This allows the localized fat deposits to get numb without having to use IV or General Anesthesia. Developed by Dermatologist Jeffrey Klein, MD, this technique has revolutionized the safety of liposuction, making it one the safest procedures offered for removal of stubborn and unwanted pockets of fat.
