Okay, I have had fat on my rib cage my whole life an it's annoying. I exercise a lot and I am at a health weight now. Can exercise or surgery get rid of it?

Answer: Rib cage fat If you have optimized your weight and tone with diet and exercise, liposuction looks like it should work well.

Answer: Rib Cage Fat BMI is a good indicator or what can be attributed to fat/weight loss. You photo only shows your mid section and you did not indicate your height and weight. However, if it persists when your BMI is less than 25-27, then the tissues may be best approached by liposuction. Additionally, It may be that your upper abdomen is appropriately flat such that you would have a nice "six pack" when the lower abdomen is defatted with either weight loss or liposuction (or abdominoplasy ). So, in conclusion, check your BMI. If it is high, lower it. If it is already low, see your local APAPS board certified plastic surgeon.
