4 Problem Spots Where Liposuction Can Really Deliver

Liposuction is celebrated by patients and surgeons alike for its ability to greatly improve the body’s contours. The fat reducing procedure targets pockets of body fat that linger despite exercise and a healthy diet. Although each procedure is customized to meet individual needs, there are four popular target spots that can especially benefit from liposuction.
1. Love Handles and Abdomen
Even some of the most health-conscious people are unable to shake stubborn fat stored around the waistline. Known as “love handles,” these pesky bulges can be effectively reduced with liposuction. The abdomen can be another trouble spot, no matter how many crunches you do or calories you count. For an overall leaner look in the abdominal area, a tummy tuck combined with liposuction can offer optimal results.
2. Thighs
Genetics play a role in how and where the body stores fat, as people with troublesome thighs can attest. Localized fat deposits can gather on the upper or inner thighs, but can be expertly minimized with liposuction. The outcome is smoother, sleeker contours.
3. Cankles
Although most people strive for slender calves and slim ankles, cankles plague countless individuals. Thick ankles are another hereditary gift that may be inherited but don’t have to be tolerated. Liposuction can slim down the region around the ankles for a more streamlined look.
4. Double Chin
Fat layers around the neck can sag, making it appear as if a person has two chins. People who suffer from a double chin know that the fat can persist despite diet and exercise. Men and women of age can be affected by this phenomenon, and a double chin can have a significant impact on your appearance and self esteem. Liposuction can dramatically improve a double chin and have a slenderizing effect on the face and neck.
