Any suggestions for lumbosacral back fat pad area?

athenamk
Right above my butt i have a fat pouch, i believe its called a lumbosacral fat pad?I have tried working out, but nothing has changed. i've had the "pouch" since I was a kid. Do I have to be completely put under for this procedure? also, cost wise what is the general range I am looking at. After procedure I heard that the fat that was removed can "move to different placed on the body," is this true? what is recovery time for this specific procedure. and will it make a huge difference to my lower back area?
