Liposuction: Yes you can get liposuction in this area. You do not necessarily need a body lift or a tummy tuck.

Yes: Depending on the specific patient's situation/anatomy, the suprapubic area can be addressed through direct excision and/or liposuction surgery. Again, which procedure will work best will depend on the specific patients anatomy and goals. This area is also addressed at the time of tummy tuck surgery for most patients.
