Male Body Contouring
Conveniently located to serve the areas of New Bern, NC
Liposuction in men is different than in women. The areas where stubborn fat tends to accumulate in men are usually the neck, chest, abdomen, and flanks (love handles). Also, men and women have different types of fat. The fat in men is typically more fibrous and difficult to remove. Our SafeLipo technique uses special instruments (a more aggressive basket tipped cannula and a power-assisted handle) to allow for easier removal of fibrous fat. Fortunately, men usually have thicker skin and this allows for a nice contour after the fat is removed.
Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, but a contouring procedure. In fact, most of our patients are in good health and physically fit. However, due to genetic reasons, some people may still suffer with disproportionate contours due to localized and stubborn fat deposits. At the Zannis Center for Plastic Surgery in New Bern, NC, we specialize in three different varieties of liposuction procedures, making us the go-to source for targeted fat extraction throughout our region. Dr. Zannis has extensive experience in treating men and understands the distinct differences from female liposuction.
