Localized Fat Deposits
Plastic surgeons differentiate LOCALIZED fat deposits from GENERALIZED fat deposits which are seen in obesity. While localized pockets of fat usually respond favorably to liposuction the generalized distribution of fat seen in obesity is not amenable for liposuction correction.

Localized fat
Typical localized fat depots are in the neck under the chin, the lower belly and the outer thighs in women, and the love handles in men. They tend to be stubborn to exercise and diet regimens. They may respond biochemically different than other fat areas in the body to insulin's effect and may be meant for a reservoir in humans in case of starvation episodes. these areas respond nicely to liposuction normally.
