Is it possible to have fat loss on a certain area of your body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Fat tends to accumulate and diminish is specific areas dependent on how your body is programmed. Often the first place that fat is stored is the last place that it leaves. This is what happens with weigh loss. On the other hand, Liposuction is an outpatient surgical procedure that allows a plastic surgeon to remove disproportionate fat from selected areas of the body.
