Admit it. Whenever you hear the word ‘liposuction’, what always comes to mind is that the procedure is usually done in the abdomen, hips and buttocks. While it’s true that liposuction tends to focus on improving these three areas, it can target other areas of your body as well.
You also don’t have to worry about being overweight as the procedures done on these areas are subtle but can have a tremendous impact on your shape. Once you see the improvements in the contours of your body, you’ll also feel a boost in confidence.
Here are the five areas in your body you could get liposuction. You may think that they might not be suitable for this procedure, but you’ll be surprised to learn that they can definitely benefit from liposuction.
- Breasts
Many women who are suffering from back, neck and shoulder pains can find relief from a breast reduction surgery. However, some of them don’t want to deal with surgery and scarring. Surprisingly, liposuction is an option that can reduce breast size. The benefit, of course, is it’s less invasive. If you’re suffering from aches and pains related to your abnormally large breasts, you might want to consider this option.
- Jawline
Removing fat in this part of the body may be unheard of, but the jawline can benefit from liposuction. The procedure can remove the double chin to improve the contour of the neck. Whether you want to have a chiseled or elegant chin, or just want to reverse the signs of aging, liposuction can help improve the contour of your upper neck and jawline.
- Male Chest
A significant number of men suffer from a medical condition known as gynecomastia, which is a growth in the breast tissue in men. Also known as ‘man boobs’ or ‘moob’, gynecomastia is commonly caused by hormonal imbalances, extreme weight gain and other diseases. A simple liposuction procedure can remove excess breast tissue and add definition to the male chest.
- Torso
Aside from the hips and stomach, other parts of your torso can also benefit from liposuction. In fact, light liposuction procedures can remove love handles, bra or bathing suit bulge and fat deposits in the upper torso.
- Arms
A mild liposuction procedure can banish fatty deposits that cause the appearance of flabby arms. Additionally, it can also help tone the arms, increasing upper arm definition.
As you can see, liposuction is not just limited to improving the abdomen, hips and buttocks. If you’re considering this body-contouring procedure, remember that it’s essential to consult a board-certified plastic surgeon. Therefore, schedule a consultation with Dr. Erika Sato today.
