When most people hear the word “liposuction,” they think of excess fat being removed from the stomach, thighs and hips. While those are some of the most common liposuction targets, there are other, tinier places where lipo can make a surprisingly big difference.*
-
Upper Back in Women
Women are often embarrassed by unsightly “bra bulges” or excess fat that becomes more obvious as bra straps dig into the skin. Liposuction can target the deposits of fat causing bra bulge.*
-
In Front of the Underarm
The area just in front of the upper arm is an unexpected but common place where excess fat deposits can develop and can cause patients to feel self-conscious, particularly when wearing sleeveless tops. Women especially are often bothered by fat in this area as it creates a lack of definition in the transition area from arms to breast. Liposuction can slim and sculpt away these fatty deposits.*
-
Under the Chin
Excess fat in the upper neck underneath the chin can give an old and tired appearance to the face. Fat in this area is often completely resistant to diet and exercise, making liposuction an ideal option for treating a double chin or upper neck area.*
-
Cankles
The word “cankles” describes the area where the calves meet the ankles and is a place where unsightly extra fat deposits can develop over time. The excess fat creates a lack of definition and a heavy look to the entire leg. Lipo can sculpt away fat cells in this area to better define the transition between leg and foot.*
