Can visceral fat be removed during a partial hysterectomy?

mskillerdiller4
I have a laparoscopy and partial hysterectomy booked for Dec 2022, because of uterine fibroids + potential endometriosis. Outside of this procedure, one of my doctors (who is a dietitian) has put me on metformin and has classified me as pre-diabetic due to my weight and height. I know visceral fat is not traditionally a cosmetic procedure, my doctor overseeing the surgery doesn’t do it. Have any other surgeons/plastic surgeons seen the fat removed during a hysterectomy?
