Can Fat Deposits in the Back of Head Be Removed or Reduced Safely by Liposuction? (photo)

Asked By:fathead1

Hello, I am a 25 year old male 5' 9", 220lbs. I have fat deposits in the back of my head which became noticeable after I started losing my hair. Can these deposits be removed or dramatically reduced by liposuction? If so which kind of liposuction would you recommend? Will losing weight make a significant difference in these fat deposits? I have seen a plastic surgeon before who didn't think I would be a good candidate because of hematoma risk. Is this a legitimate concern?
