Which Body Parts Are Included in A Full Abdominal Lipo Procedure?

Stomach liposuction, also known as abdominal liposuction, is one of the most common fat removal procedures in the United States.

With technological progress consistently occurring within the aesthetic field, patients are increasingly seeking help making changes to their midsection. 

Full abdominal liposuction is a process that has become more popular due to its fat extraction technique. 

Liposuction is when fat is removed via suction with the help of a device known as a cannula, which is the main instrument used within the procedure.

Who Can Undergo Full Abdominal Liposuction?

Liposuction is a good fit for a patient interested in removing small fat deposits from their body. 

You mustn't confuse liposuction with a weight-loss procedure. It's specifically designed for patients who want to contour certain body areas by removing specific amounts of fat from the body.

Additionally, you should have experimented with a healthy lifestyle before considering surgery in the first place, given that liposuction is best suited for those that have stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to exercise and diet.

Last but not least, patients should be non-smokers and within their healthy weight to safely undergo any form of surgery. 

How Does A Full Abdominal Liposuction Work?

For abdominal liposuction, you'll be under general anesthesia. In very few cases is, the procedure done with a local anesthetic.

Once you're asleep, the surgeon will place small incisions around the site of your fat deposits, where the thin cannula is inserted under the skin to lose the fat cells. 

Full abdominal lipo body parts include the abdomen, but certain surgeons sometimes extract fat from the waist to allow for a more refined contour. 

Results You Should Expect

Patients that have undergone abdominal liposuction should see a flatter, more pronounced midsection afterward.

All liposuction results are permanent, but only if you maintain your current weight. That's why it's generally recommended that patients anting liposuction be accustomed to a healthy lifestyle, or they can lose their results in a matter of months. 

Additionally, patients are wondering about the optimal manner in which to lose fat. While liposuction has been around for a significant time, technological innovations in the cosmetic field have allowed for less invasive fat extractions.
