Is there a diagram that identifies liposuction areas and their location?

Asked By:ThomasMM in Los Angeles, CA

Hi, I am trying to understand the difference between what one Dr. calls that lateral chest, another calls the outer chest, the axillae, etc. I am seeking to understand that, so I can have a better understanding of what areas will be worked on, and what exactly will be left alone. Is this also something I can understand from the "sharpie," markings during a pre op? A diagram would be seriously helpful either way. Thanks very much!
