Yes 4 localized fat: If you have a localized area of fatty deposit, you may be considered a candidate but there may be several other factors that go into the decision making process.

Yes: Many people are unable to loose localized fat despite being in shape. This is the best indication for liposuction.

Not 4 Weight Loss: If you are seeking liposuction to lose weight maybe re-consider. If you have localized areas that you seek reduced, that is different.

Maybe? : Whether or not you are a good candidate for liposuction surgery will depend on your physical examination and your goals. Generally speaking, the “ideal” candidate for liposuction surgery is a healthy person with localized diet and exercise resistant adipose tissue with good quality overlying skin elasticity.
