What Can You Get Liposuction On?

Published by Dr. Leon Tcheupdjian

You can get liposuction on the:

  • Torso
  • Upper arms
  • Face and neck
  • Breasts/chest

For many people, the term “liposuction” conjures up images of dramatic midsection transformations. While it’s true that the abdomen is the most popular treatment area, it’s not the only one. If you have a stubborn pocket of fat that refuses to respond to diet and exercise, there is likely a specialized liposuction technique designed to address it.

The Core Zones: Our Most Popular Treatment Areas

Most patients who visit our Chicago-area clinics for liposuction are looking to refine one of these four areas of the body. These zones typically harbor the most stubborn fat, making liposuction the perfect tool to transform them. 

The Torso: Total Body Contouring

The abdomen and flanks (commonly called “love handles”) are the most requested areas for treatment. Liposuction can successfully reveal a leaner, more athletic profile that exercise alone may not be able to achieve. We apply liposuction strategically according to your goals. We can reshape your entire midsection or simply touch up your lower abdomen.

The Upper Arms: Eliminating “Bat Wings”

The triceps area is a notorious “problem spot.” This area can easily become bulky with fat and loose skin due to age or weight loss. A targeted arm liposuction procedure removes that hanging weight, allowing the skin to retract for a more toned, youthful appearance. For patients with significant skin laxity, we often combine this procedure with an arm lift (brachioplasty) for optimal results.

The Face and Neck: Defining the Jawline

Even a small amount of “submental fat” under the chin can create the appearance of a double chin, making you look older or heavier than you are. Thankfully, chin liposuction is a relatively quick, minimally invasive procedure that yields dramatic results. By defining the angle of the jaw and slimming the neckline, we can restore a more youthful, angular, and attractive profile.

The Chest: Breast Reduction and Contouring

For some women, breast liposuction is an excellent alternative to a full surgical reduction, as it can reduce breast volume with virtually no scarring. This technique is also the primary treatment for Gynecomastia (enlarged male breasts), allowing for the removal of glandular and fatty tissue to create a flatter, more masculine chest contour.
