Abdominal Etching vs. Traditional Liposuction

What is the difference Abdominal Etching and Traditional Liposuction?

Abdominal etching is similar to traditional liposuction in that the preparation for surgery, recovery time, and requirements for the procedure are very similar.

The results of abdominal etching are much more prominent and dramatic than traditional liposuction. It may also be more expensive and less convenient to find a provider who’s trained in this specific procedure.

Abdominal etching is considered a form of advanced or 3-D liposuction, which means the results are extremely specific and target certain areas of your body.

Traditional liposuction isn’t so exact. However, this means that if abdominal etching doesn’t heal correctly, or if your body simply heals in a way that your doctor doesn’t anticipate, you’re more likely to need corrective surgery.

In a review of 512 cases of men who had abdominal etching procedures, only 3 people needed corrective surgeries.
