Can I get liposuction on the entire upper back, including the back of my neck? I have something called a “buffalo hump”

Asked By:bethyoungg in Worcester, MA

I have been Diagnosed with a rare condition called partial lypo dystrophy. That Makes me gain weight on my upper back and stomach mostly. I am very self conscious of my upper back. My lower back is normal yet as you go up my back gets larger and makes me look hunchbacked. since my fat cells grow in those areas (upper back and stomach) I would think it would grow back even after getting the liposuction due to how the condition I have and how my fat cells form In those areas
