Smart Lipo for Male Flanks?

Liposuction Candidate?

Thank you for the question and picture. It is hard to know without direct examination, but you may be a good candidate for liposuction surgery or cool sculpting. In person consultation with a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon may be helpful. Best wishes.

You're a perfect candidate for flank Liposuction

You are a perfect candidate. SmartLipo will not only remove your problem area, it’ll also tighten the area. Liposuction is a great way to remove localized fat deposits that won’t go away from diet and/or exercise.

Smart Lipo of the flanks in a man

Flank lipodystrophy in a man can be treated very nicely by liposuction. This can be done with Smart Lipo, traditional Lipo, Vaser, PAL or any other form.

Smart Lipo and Liposuction can improve male flanks

Smart Lipo and Liposuction can totally improve your hips. Go get opinions. I believe only invasive techniques can achieve the best results not these external treatments like Zerona or Zeltiq.
