Abdominal obesity occurs when an excessive amount of fat tissue in the body is accumulated in the upper or lower abdomen. It is a common problem for both men and women and can be corrected through liposuction.

While satisfactory results can be obtained through liposuction – removing excessive amounts of subcutaneous fat – it is recommended that one undergo abdominoplasty if one’s abdominal muscles weaken, especially if accompanied by excessive skin drooping.

The thigh – a common area where fat accumulates easily. It causes the area to look unappealing and is typically resistant to effects of exercise and diet. Liposuction is effective for problematic areas that are resistant to weight-loss measures.

Fat accumulates in the outer creases between the buttocks and thighs will become noticeable when the buttocks droop. Thus, the procedure corrects the outer sections of each. During the procedure, it is essential to note that the centre of the buttocks will not be made too flat for it to augment drooping buttocks into a curvy contour.

In some instances, fat can also accumulate in a small part of the upper buttocks (between the lower waist and buttocks). Additionally, the buttocks’ shape can be corrected, and curved along the waist and buttocks’ (side view) can be changed into more appealing via the procedure.

Fat accumulation occurs in both men and women. For men, fat accumulation at the waist often occurs at the sides, commonly known as, love handles. For women, it usually occurs at the upper buttocks, the area right above the pelvic bones. These problems can be corrected through liposuction, often combined abdominal liposuction. The procedure will dramatically reduce waist circumference.

Excessive fat accumulated on the back creates an unappealing crease on the mid-back or below the armpit. The creases are often visible even when a person wears body-fitting clothes, and back liposuction can correct it.

Fat accumulated in the arms often occurs in the areas between the elbow and armpit. This problem typically cannot be corrected by diet or exercise. Those affected by this condition, especially women, may face low self-esteem when wearing sleeveless clothes. Hence, the procedure is recommended as it corrects the arm contours allowing it to look visually appealing.

As one grows older, fat is often accumulated in the lower face and neck connecting with the chin line. This often results in a pouch-shaped fat accumulation around the lower face, chin, and neckline, commonly known as double chin. During facial liposuction, face lines can be improved by removing surplus fat around the affected areas and reattaches skin in the spaces where fat has been removed.

Patients who are susceptible to lower-body obesity, where excessive amounts of fat accumulate in the calves can opt for calf liposuction. The procedure will remove excess fat in the calves and ankles through liposuction, resulting in an attractive ankle line.

Gynaecomastia is the term used when men have chests with excessive amounts of fat, similar to those of women. If a man suffers from gynaecomastia, a suitable correction effect can be obtained through the surgery. Similarly, suppose a woman has overly large breasts. In that case, it can be reduced to a more feminine shape through breast liposuction and mammoplasty reduction.
