Can liposuction be done in an area with a small amount of fat? Such as a small buffalo hump? What if there is bone plus a little bit of fat too? Can lipo still be done to help smooth the appearance? Or do you need to have a lot of excess fat?? I really would like to get the procedure done as I feel it's the only thing that could possibly help it look better
Answer: Liposuction for Buffalo Hump Liposuction can be done for a buffalo hump. It is very well tolerated, and can give great results. Of course you will need to do an in-person MD consultation with an expert in liposuction (whether a plastic or dermatologic surgeon, always ask about credentials and experience). It is possible for you, that a non-invasive procedure such as CoolSculpting might work. Again, you need to visit with an MD who is experience in all forms of body sculpting.

Answer: Lipo Candidate - VASER HD, J Plasma/Renuvion/Inmode BodyTite tightening, fat grafting for buttock lift/BBL, Buffalo Hump yes liposuction can improve the buffalo hump easily. Best when combined with internal heating. You need a formal evaluation by an expert in body shaping and contouring to determine what is best. Traditional liposuction awake and smart liposuction are old methods and do very poorly for tightening skin or significant skin tightening or contouring. Small problem areas can be improved slightly by these methods. The best in body contouring not only removes fat with energy devices like VASER ultrasound but also internally heat the skin with radio-frequency devices such as J PLASMA/RENUVION, InMode BodyTite, ThermiRF to heat the under surface of the skin and tighten it at the same time as fat removal. These combinations are called 4D HIDEF VASER contouring and can only be done by a well . trained body contouring specialist. At the same time fat should be harvested, PRP and stem cells added and injected into muscles or indentations/cellulite to get body shaping and contouring. This is known as a Brazilian butt lift when you inject the fat to the buttock for contouring and lifting, but fat can also be used in areas such as the chest/breast, arms/shoulders, calves and face. Cellulite should also be treated with cellfina, sculptra, subcision and/or fillers such as bellafill, renuva synthetic fat, or sculptra. If skin is very loose before surgery then it will need to be removed such as lower abdominal skin (tummy tuck/abdominoplasty), breast skin (breast lift), arm skin (brachioplasty). Overall you need a full assessment, but simple liposuction alone will not tighten skin and needs a combination of various methods -- fat removal, skin tightening, defining, fat grafting, skin removal -- to get the best in body contouring and body sculpting.
