No, most of the subcutaneous fat can be removed, but it is actually best to leave a small layer to provide smooth and even results.
Nearly all of the subcutaneous fat can be removed in a particular area, but this is generally not recommended due to issues of contour deformities. Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent. Find a plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of liposuction procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
