What is the best fat removal procedure for relatively minimal love handles? (Photos)

July 1, 2017
Asked By:Tomoe Gozen in Tampa, FL

I exercise regularly but my love handles aren't going anywhere! I love my butt, but I feel like my love handles ruin the shape, making it square-ish instead of a "tear drop" butt which I want. What is the best procedure to provide the shape I want in terms of cost and invasiveness? Is it possible to use kybella off-label? Or would cool sculpting be best? Less invasive is preferable but I am open to suggestions!
