Yes, liposuction definitely can be done to the back area to remove excess fat. :)
Yes, liposuction can be used to remove fat (but not excess skin) from the back.
Yes of course. However back fat can be stubborn in a lot of people because they are more fibrous. Just like the area of the upper abdomen, back back fat may not be removed as readily. You should look into VASER assisted Liposution. VASER technology is a surgical grade Ultrasound which makes liposuction more efficient and skin tightening.
Hi there, Yes, there is a procedure called back liposuction that targets fat pockets in the lower back and flanks, protrusions in the middle of the back, and sagging skin in the upper back and shoulders. Back liposuction uses tiny cannulas to remove this fat by being inserted under the skin through tiny incisions. In addition to removing excess fat, back liposuction can also tighten the skin to promote a firmer appearance. I recommend that you meet with a board-certified plastic surgeon in your area to find out if you are a suitable candidate for back liposuction.
