Context: 37 year old East Asian female, have lost weight previously (body recomp from size 12 to as low as size 6 - approximately 25-30 lbs), active lifestyle, weight lifts 3-4x weekly I’m looking to improve my waist to hip ratio as I don’t have very big hips and I’m not sure if Lipo around my midsection would help to do that, or if it would just make my stomach flatter without any visible changes to my actual waist size. Also, would Lipo be recommended for this amount of fat removal or would something less invasive be more ideal? Thank you in advance.
