When you think of liposuction, common treatment areas like the hips, waist and upper thighs might come to mind. But did you know that you can get liposuction in lots more areas than those top three?
Take a look at some of the little-known areas where you can get lipo to see if this popular body contouring procedure could be right for you after all.
Face
Extra fat carried in our cheeks and neck can be particularly difficult to get rid of through diet and exercise alone. Liposuction can help you achieve a slimmer facial contour and jawline when these traditional weight loss methods just don’t cut it.
Chest
Men may opt for chest liposuction to reduce stubborn fat caused by gynecomastia or loss of muscle mass. Women can get chest liposuction, too, though this is less common.
Upper Arms
If so-called “batwings” are keeping you from wearing tank tops and swimsuits, upper arm liposuction may be for you. This procedure can help to reduce and smooth “underarm jiggle” for a sleeker, more toned look. Upper arm liposuction can be paired with an upper arm lift to address excess fat and loose skin at the same time.
Back
Both men and women can benefit from back liposuction to remove stubborn pockets of fat in this area, though this procedure tends to be more common with women wanting to get rid of “bra rolls.”
Buttocks
Liposuction can also be used to remove “banana roll” fat beneath your buttocks, or to create a slimmer, smoother overall shape and appearance.
Wherever your problem areas are, the first step toward getting a smoother, sleeker physique is to meet with an experienced plastic surgeon. Give our Concord office a call at 925-685-4533 or get in touch online to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mariotti today.
