I am 32/f, very fit and healthy. I train 5x/week and have a very clean diet - no junk what-so-ever. Yet, I have this small "belly".. My Dr. said I would need to lose "an undesirable amount of weight" to lose the belly.. I have heard that liposuction on fit women require more liposculpting need to go to a surgeon with more experience than your average run of the mill lipo on an obese patient.. So does it require more experience for a thin fit patient requiring lipo vs a fat obese patient?
Answer: Lipo in thin/fit patient vs fat/obese patient? This is an easy question to answer. A thinner patient is much more difficult to liposuction. The surgeon must liposuction to produce a noticeable difference without creating contour irregularities. Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent. Find a board certified plastic surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction and liposuction revision procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Lipo in thin people This is true.There is NO substitute for experince.It is something you can't read about.The less fatty tissue there is the smaller the cannulas should be to lipo to minimize the risks of grooves and uneveness.

Answer: Liposuction in a Thin, Fit Female I have seen a number of physically fit women and men who have a small area of fat that just won't go away, despite regular exercise and a healthy diet. As long as the overlying skin is firm, which it certainly seems to be in your photos, then a careful liposuction can reduce this bulge nicely and create a smoother abdomen. The surgeon must remove the fat conservatively in order to avoid a depression. An area of this size could be done using local anesthesia (numbing medicine) with or without sedation. Whether the patient is thin or heavier, liposuction always requires great care to avoid problems and to achieve the best result for the patient. Seek out a board certified plastic surgeon who has experience with liposuction.
