I weight train 5 x week and get in 30 mins of steady state cardio every day. I've tried many different methods of losing fat: 1. Progressively altering calorie & carb intake 2. HIIT/LISS 3. Coolsculpting. I've had 2 sessions & they both failed. Both times my body fat % only changed by 2-4%. Basically, I seem to lose fat in every part of my body except in my abdominal region. I'm currently standing at 21% body fat. My lowest has been 17%. Even then the abdominal fat remains (belly pooch).

My recommendation is that you see an experienced board certified Plastic Surgeon. A plastic surgery resident will have 2 years of experience at most. I still have new insights even doing 600 liposuction cases per year. Also, there are great financing options for all types of credit.
Hello Patricia3782 Liposuction can also be done to improve your body contours. Liposuction is not used for those looking for dramatic weight loss; it is done when you are close to your desired weight. Healthy elastic skin is a major requirement for liposuction to enable quick recovery. #...
Some of the sensations experienced during the recovery from liposuction can persist for up to a year. Generally speaking they do decrease in intensity and frequency over this period of time. If it persists beyond a year and it is not improving I would discuss it with your surgeon.
