I am considering Liposuction. It would be great to get an initial opinion on what kind of (belly) fat I have, visceral fat and/or subcutaneous fat?. I have included 6 pictures with respective captions. Edited to add: Also, the stomach size increases substantially immediately almost disproportionately after I eat a big meal. It is not bloating but rather more like sagging from the large meal. If I don't eat a large meal, stomach size is smaller.
