Men’s Abdominal Liposuction Before And After
View before and after photos of male abdominal liposuction performed by various plastic surgeons.
Liposuction of the male abdomen is similar to the female in technique with a few exceptions. Ultimately the result depends on skin elasticity.
Surgeons generally assumne the underlying muscles are in relatively good condition. Liposuction of the stomach (abdomen) area may consist of upper and lower abdomen, hips, flanks, upper buttocks, back, etc.
Traditionally conventional liposuction is utilized. However due to the fibrous nature of the fat deposits in the hip regions (“love handles”), surgeons tend to prefer the use of ultrasonic liposuction.
The amount of fat to be removed is a complex decision process determined based on your desires, anatomy, practicality, and wound healing.
An important consideration is your skin tone which may vary according to genetics, tobacco use, sun exposure, pattern of weight gain/loss, age, etc. Removal of too much fat with poor skin tone can produce loose, sagging, dimpled skin.
Male liposuction is a very common practice, especially for the love handles and the abdomen. The risks are generally the same as for women. Liposuction is growing in popularity for men and can offer the same benefits of improved body contour as it does for women. The most popular areas where men request liposuction are the abdomen, love handles, chest and chin.
Liposuction is popular among male patients
Liposuction is actually a very popular procedure for men, and it is highly rewarding. Many of male patients who visit surgeons for liposuction have the concerns like “love handles” or a “spare tire”.
Liposuction can remove unwanted fat from the waistline quite effectively. Depending on the amount of skin and fat present, a tummy tuck may also be beneficial. The risks of liposuction are the same for both men and women.
Liposuction is actually one of the most common procedures for men to undergo. According to the most recent statistics published by ASPS, liposuction was the number one body procedure performed for men in 2016. The techniques are generally the same between men and women.
However, great detail is given to each gender’s body structure to maintain masculine and feminine features. Men often target different areas of the body such as the lower back and flanks. There are similar risks, but these are minimal.
All liposuction candidates should be healthy otherwise and maintain a healthy lifestyle after surgery to maintain results.
