Low body fat percentage and fit and unsure if I’m an eligible candidate? (Photo)

Just based off your photos, you are in great shape. Ab etching can help define some of the more feminine lateral rectus lines (ask your surgeon about skin tightening energy sources to help tighten the skin as you get the lipo etch). Keep up the Pilates, daily walks, and weight lifting (esp in the core) to help continue the muscle definition.

HI Bunniecat. Thank you for your question regarding low body fat percentage and fit and unsure if you are an eligible candidate for VASER liposuction. Thank you for your history and your pictures. First, we should analyze your pictures to determine the best procedures. Your pictures show a very slender body with not much adipose or fat. Even though you do not have much body fat, most plastic surgeons would agree that you are still a candidate for VASER ab etching liposuction. Before you decide to undergo ab etching, you need to decide how defined you want your abdomen. Do you want one, two, or three of the vertical lines, namely the linea alba and the semi-lunaris lines? Do you want the horizontal transcriptions? These are the horizontal lines that define the rectus abdminis muscles. Once you decide what lines you want to show or have defined, notify your plastic surgeon.
The VASER procedure is usually completed in about two to three hours. Usually, the VASER HI DEF ab etching is performed under general anesthesia, but it can be performed under IV sedation. General anesthesia is better than IV sedation with local anesthesia because more fat can be removed safely. Also, VASER HI DEF liposuction under general anesthesia is less painful than IV sedation. Plan for a seven to ten-day recovery.
I hope that I have answered your question regarding ab etching. Since VASER HI DEF liposuction is a specialized procedure, please seek an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon with significant experience in VASER HI DEF liposuction. Do your research. Look at their website. Look at their reviews on RealSelf. If you cannot find an experienced, VASER HI DEF liposuction plastic surgeon in your neighborhood, consider traveling out of state. Sincerely, Dr. Katzen, MD.

Congratulations on maintaining a healthy body. You have a strong flat abdomen. Diet addresses all deep fat. I would expect that you have no fat in your deep layer which is where traditional liposuction is performed. We all have a some fat in our superficial layer. In experienced hands (those that do true high definition liposuction), you can absolutely bring out your oblique lines. The key is to do it naturally. Given the minimal amount of fat you have over your upper and lower abdomen, a very natural result can be achieved. The reason I say this, is that there will be a minimal "step-off" from your abdomen to your sides which is natural. I perform both whole body high definition liposuction usually under general anesthesia and then small area liposuction done awake. Given the amount of fat you have, I would be able to perform your procedure "awake", meaning comfortable with only oral sedation without having to go to sleep.
