Is there a type of cosmetic surgery which can reduce weight by 20 pounds?

Yes: Yes, but try diet and exercize first. They are sfer more physiologic and better in the long run.

No....: ...But bariatric surgery can do this and more. For 20 pounds, it's really a diet & exercise issue, i'm afraid.

No: With the exception of the rare large panniculectomy, plastic surgical procedures are not designed to remove significant amount of weight or help patients with their weight loss goals. Best to achieve a long-term stable weight, through diet and exercise, prior to proceeding with elective surgery.

Liposuction: Liposuction is a procedure which removes fat from the body. It is one of the most popular procedures in the field of plastic surgery because of its simplicity and effectiveness. For more information: http://www.pacificcenterplasticsurgery.com/body-procedures-newport-beach/liposuction/
