Will Smart Lipo Help Reveal 6-pack Abs?

Will Smart Lipo help revealing 6-pack abs and give the "ripped look" to a male given the facts that his BMI is 22 and his body fat is around 15% and a small portion of his upper abs muscle is already visible?

Also, I'm 22 years old, have been maintaining healthy eating habits and exercising for awhile and I'm already at my normal weight, but I still have love handles and a layer of fat above my abs muscle. My goal is to reach a body fat around 10%. Is this possible with Smart Lipo under a skilled a doctor, if not, are there any possible solutions? Thank you. : )
