Can Liposuction Remove My ‘Spare Tire’?

The Washington Times recently reported that many U.S. soldiers are undergoing liposuction to decrease their waistbands in order to meet strict physical fitness requirements. If our men in uniform can benefit from liposuction even while undergoing intensive military workouts, you too might be able to obtain your ideal shape with this procedure.

Liposuction is a body contouring process that removes the unsightly fat in the midsection you can’t shake off through good diet and exercise. Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Richard Ellenbogen can help you determine whether or not liposuction can fix your figure.

Fighting Belly Fat

Excessive fat in the abdomen, sometimes called a “spare tire” or “pot belly,” can develop for a variety of reasons, including:

Genetic predisposition to abdominal obesity
Poor diet
Lack of exercise
Illness

Though liposuction isn’t a suitable alternative to weight loss, it can augment the lifestyle changes you’ve implemented to get fit.

How Liposuction Helps

Dr. Ellenbogen can help you achieve a toned appearance by targeting and removing pesky fat deposits. Several different liposuction options are available, each using a different state-of-the-art technology to shape your body to your specifications:

VASER (ultrasound)
Accuscult and Acculift (advanced treatment using surgical lasers)
Body Jet (uses water pressure)
