Liposuction of the waist and love handles

In some women, excess fat accumulates in the waist area, causing more of a straight line appearance of the lower torso, waist and hip area.  These fat deposits are extremely difficult, if not impossible to get rid of with exercise or diet. 

Liposuction can rid patients of these deposits, causing a much more pleasing "hourglass" shape.

Men can also develop fatty deposits in the waist, commonly referred to as "love handles."  These "love handles" are amenable to treatment with liposuction as well.
