Many women, no matter how many sit-ups they do, retain fat in their abdomen—particularly their tummy. It can be disheartening when your diet and exercise efforts do not remove the fat from the areas you most want to be reduced, such as the tummy. A fatty tummy can make bikini season a source of anxiety and prevent tight-fitting tops from looking attractive due to conspicuous rolls of fat. Liposuction is an effective solution to these problems.
Liposuction is procedure used to sculpt and remodel a patient’s body by getting rid of unwanted fat in specific areas. Liposuction on the tummy is normally used to remove fat in order to create a flatter abdomen that is youthful and healthy looking.
Depending on the amount of fat to be removed, a tummy tuck may be recommended in order to eliminate excess skin.
Liposuction in additional areas, such as the thighs, hips or buttocks, is often combined with tummy liposuction for an overall sculpted look.
Liposuction is not a substitute for diet and exercise, or a cure for cellulite. Liposuction, properly used, is a means of removing stubborn fat deposits from specific areas of the body, thus improving the contours of that particular body part.

How Much Does Tummy Liposuction Cost?
Cosmetic surgery is not normally covered by provincial or company health insurance plans. However, most patients are pleased to discover that plastic surgery is very affordable. Payment plans are also available. Many people regard cosmetic surgery, not as an expense, but rather as a permanent investment in how they look.
