At the Peninsula Plastic Surgery Center, communication
and trust is important to us. Our California plastic surgery center caters to
the community in Southern California, particularly Torrance, Palos
Verdes Estates, Beach cities like Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach, South Bay Areas, Orange County, Long Beach, Matthattan Beach, El Segundo, San Pedro, and Beverly Hills.
"I believe that a good plastic surgeon allows continuous personal
communication between the physician and patient, from the initial
consultation to the last post-operative visit. To establish a solid
relationship of trust and open expression, as a good plastic surgeon
I provide complimentary cosmetic consultations and completely private
consultations, allotting as much time as necessary. I make every
effort to know my patients well, to listen and understand their
needs and desires, always staying in touch with each patient's feelings
and making myself easily available.
Dr Rosso, I just wanted to thank
you for the new "me" I see in the mirror.
You did a great job and I love the way I look now. You also
have a great personality that made my whole experience a pleasure.
Thank the girls in your plastic surgery center also, they were also friendly and helpful and i
really appreciated that.If I decide to have more work done in the
future I'll be back but until then keep up the good work.
Sincerely, A.H

What happens if I gain weight after liposuction?
Since liposuction surgery permanently removes fat from a specific location, weight gain will shift to another target area. The new target area of weight gain may be desirable or undesirable. Therefore, maintaining or losing weight after liposuction is imperative. It is important to know that weight loss/gain is a factor, but changes in percent body fat are also important. Liposuction is a body sculpting technique and is used for contouring not weight loss. Liposuction should compliment a proper diet and exercise.
What happens to the skin after liposuction?
Since liposuction will not tighten skin or develop muscle, the result will depend on the skin's elasticity to regain its usual shape. For patients with loss of skin elasticity due to fluctuations in weight, sun damage, and pregnancies, liposuction may not be an option. Other techniques, such as abdominoplasty and lifts may be better options.
Will I lose weight from liposuction?
Weight loss from liposuction is minimal. Most patients will notice an improved body contour and loss of inches rather than pounds. Patients can expect an improvement in body shape, and will probably fit in their current dress size more comfortably or even drop one size or two. As would be expected, liposuction does not improve the cardiovascular status of the patient. Exercise and diet is recommended.
If I am obese can I still have abdominoplasty?
The decision to perform abdominoplasty
on an obese patient is a judgment call by the surgeon.
Remember, liposuction and abdominoplasty cannot reduce
fat in and around abdominal organs. There is a procedure
used for morbidly obese patients with excessive fat
and skin. This procedure is called a Panniculectomy.
This is usually done to treat severe cases where hanging
skin causes rashes, irritation, and personal hygiene
problems.
Do breast implants cause autoimmune or collagen vascular disease?
There is no clinically proven increased incidence of auto immune or collagen vascular disease in implanted women. The development of such diseases is independent of breast implants.
Is post operative care included?
All of your post operative care is included in the surgery fee and will be personally performed by Doctor Rosso.
How do you decide which surgery to do?
At your private consultation with Dr. Rosso, you will be asked to describe the changes you hope to accomplish and why they are of concern. Then an examination of the areas that would be affected is performed. After the examination Dr. Rosso will suggest one, or a combination of procedures which will accomplish your goals. The benefits, limitations, and risks of each procedure will be explained. Dr. Rosso will give you advice based on his training and experience, but it will be up to you to decide which procedures you would like performed.
Where is the surgery performed?

procedure and may be done at one of the following locations:
Torrance Memorial Hospital
Little Company of Mary Hospital
