Are there any centers in the US that remove visceral (intra abdominal) fat for abdominal pain and metabolic issues?

I'm unaware of any clinics that specifically remove visceral fat. Diet and exercise, or bariatric procedures, need to weight loss and will decrease the size of visceral fat. I would consider speak with your primary care doctor regarding your best options. You may consider a consultation with a bariatric surgeon.

Hi, Thank you for your post. I am not aware of any places doing this kind of procedure. It sounds like a bariatric specialist would be the best option for you. With the appropriate diet and exercise visceral fat usually improves.

Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, rather it is for sculpting and defining and removing problem areas that cannot be removed with weight loss and diet / exercise alone. For best results, it is recommended to be at your ideal or stable weight before getting a sculpting liposuction procedure.  With skin laxity, a tummy tuck or lifting procedure could be performed at the same time. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a bariatric doctor or dietitian. Best, Dr. Emer
