Who may be a candidate
It may be considered for people with localized fat who want greater waist or contour definition while preserving a natural shape, provided they have a stable weight, good health, and realistic expectations.
How it is planned
A thin cannula is introduced through small incisions to precisely remove fat. It may be combined with fat transfer. Surgery generally lasts 2–4 hours under local or general anesthesia, depending on the case.
General recovery guidance
Light activity is often resumed around one week. Intense exercise should generally wait 4–6 weeks, and a compression garment may be recommended for 4–8 weeks.
