Even with a clean diet and solid workout routine, some areas just don’t respond. Liposuction for men targets stubborn fat to help you achieve a more defined, balanced shape
Men’s liposuction targets stubborn fat in areas like the abdomen, flanks, or chest to define your shape.
Most return to work within a few days, with full activity typically resumed in 2-3 weeks.
A leaner, more sculpted look that enhances your natural build without looking overdone.
Chest liposuction for men can reduce excess fat and create a more defined, masculine chest contour—often with minimal downtime and no visible scars—boosting confidence both in and out of a shirt.
Abdominal liposuction effectively removes stubborn belly fat to reveal a flatter, more sculpted midsection, enhancing core definition and complementing your overall physique.
Liposuction of the back and love handles targets those hard-to-lose pockets of fat, smoothing out bulges and creating a more tapered, athletic shape from every angle.
HD liposuction is all about precision—it targets stubborn fat and enhances the muscle definition you already have. Whether it’s your abs, chest, or back, this technique helps bring out that lean, athletic look that can be tough to achieve with just diet and workouts. If you’re in decent shape but want more visible definition, HD lipo might be the boost you need.

For men, stubborn belly fat and loose abdominal skin aren’t always solved by diet and exercise alone. A male tummy tuck can remove excess skin, tighten the core, and create a more defined, athletic look. This procedure can also improve posture, strengthen abdominal muscles, and help clothing fit more comfortably.
If you have loose skin or weakened abdominal muscles, liposuction alone won’t provide the firm, toned results you’re looking for—a tummy tuck may be the better solution.

Dr. Ditesheim was looking for a technology that was different from all other liposuction; one that would deliver sculpted results and a better recovery. Aquashape also provided the option to have a liposuction procedure without general anesthesia. Many physicians perform liposuction, some are plastic surgeon, others are not. Many do not think of fat removal as a “real procedure”. They promote unsafe techniques at discount prices. Poorly executed, liposuction can be dangerous and results disfiguring. Aquashape Liposuction at its best is a sculpting tool to create a more muscular, defined body, with minimal scar and an easier recovery.
Aquashape is unique in using water pressure to free up and remove fat. It is a gentler approach to permanent fat removal. Traditional liposuction often uses large, sharp destructive cannulas to break up and remove the fat. Other popular liposuction techniques (Smart-Lipo™, Power Lipo™, Tickle Lipo™, Laser lipo) use heat or supplemental energy to destroy fat before removal. These techniques can create more damage to surrounding normal structures. More collateral damage is the reason for more bruising and swelling. For most Aquashape patients, there is minimal to no bruising 24 hours after the procedure.
Because Aquashape is a gentler technique, it is reasonable to have the procedure awake. For the chest, this has proven to be very successful, with 42% of the procedures performed with men awake. This allows return to work the same or next day or after the weekend. General anesthesia is always an option if you prefer to be asleep and pain free or for longer procedures.
For most men, the Aquashape investment will range from $5000 to $15,000. The cost depends on your areas of frustration and your body. For example, Aquashape for the lower tummy awake will start at $5000 ( procedure: 1 hour); larger men (>240lb) who want torso shaping (abdomen and hips) the procedure starts at $8500 ( procedure: 2 hours). For chest, abdomen and hips, most men will spend $10,000 to $14,500 ( procedure: 3 hours). For High-definition Liposuction ( abdominal etching and lipo-sculpting of chest and torso front and back) the procedure is longer, more complex and costs will be slightly higher.nnThe Aquashape procedure for male breasts, under local anesthesia: $6800. These fees include all pre and post-operative care and are designed to provide realistic estimates of the Aquashape procedures. Each person’s surgical plan is individualized and costs determined at the consultation. Financing with multiple third-party vendors is available.nnBecause nothing is more important than your safety, all AquaShape™ procedures are performed in our private AAAASF accredited operating suite. That means that the nurse that you talk to at the consultation will be at your side at each step of your experience. You will be seen the day after surgery and then at intervals during the first year to assure you have the best experience.
