Liposuction is one of the most popular procedures for removing localized fat and achieving a better body silhouette. Many people think this surgery is only performed on the abdomen, but it can be performed on several other areas of the body to achieve a more defined contour. It’s time to know which body parts liposuction can be performed on.
Liposuction aims to remove unwanted fat through small incisions in localized areas. It is a surgery that lasts between 1 and 3 hours, depending on the treatment areas, and is performed under anesthesia.

Liposuction on the abdomen and waist
The abdomen is the most common area of the body for liposuction. It is ideal for those who want to get rid of adipose tissue that is difficult to eliminate with diet or exercise. In addition, liposuction in this area can provide a more defined waistline, achieving a more harmonious torso.
Liposuction on the back
The great advantage of liposuction is that it can reach different areas of the body. For example, the fat accumulated on the back is one of the most difficult to remove with massages, exercises, or diet, especially in the upper part near the bra line. With this procedure, a smoother and more toned appearance can be achieved.
Arm liposuction
If your arms have excess fat or are poorly defined, arm liposuction may be a great solution. This procedure stylizes the arm’s appearance, defines the natural line of the muscle, and reduces unwanted volume.
Thigh liposuction
The legs or thighs are one of the most requested areas for liposuction, especially the inner and outer thighs. It is ideal for people with most of their fat tissue in their legs or those who have lost weight and want to slim down that area.
Liposuction of double chin and neck
Fat in the neck and double chin can make the face look less defined. Liposuction in this area helps to achieve a more defined facial profile and highlights the jawline.
Liposuction on hips and flanks
Liposuction on the hips and flanks is ideal for those who want to eliminate “love handles” or rolls on the sides of the abdomen. This helps to achieve a more stylized figure.
Liposuction on the pectoral area in men
Many men suffer from gynecomastia, which is the accumulation of fat in the pectoral area. This tissue growth can be eliminated through liposuction, resulting in firmer, more masculine breasts.
As you have seen, liposuction can be performed on many body parts, and the procedure will depend on each patient’s needs and expectations.
If you are in California and you want to define your body and eliminate the fat that does not disappear with exercise, liposuction may be the ideal option for you. Our expert medical team will guide you through every step of the process to guarantee natural and harmonious results.
