What is Abdominal etching?
Abdominal etching or ab etching, also referred to as six-pack surgery and lip etching, is a highly-targeted liposuction procedure that aims to make the abdominals look more toned and chiseled. It is an outpatient cosmetic procedure that takes an hour or two and can be performed under general and local anesthesia.
The surgeon first draws lines with a marker on the patient’s stomach to mark the six-pack abs and the exact locations from where fat should be removed. Then, after making a small incision, he/she inserts a thin cannula, a blunt-tipped tube containing a hole. The surgeon then repeatedly moves the cannula along the specified areas to dislodge the fat deposits, which will then be suctioned out by a suction device attached to the cannula. Unlike traditional liposuction, a lipo-etching procedure targets specific fat deposits, leaving some fat in certain areas untouched. The result is a flat stomach with pronounced abdominals.
Abdominal Etching for Men and Women
Abdominal etching is popular among men who desire a more cut and defined look. Men can find a plastic surgeon who will remove those last layers of fat to sculpt the abs and make the stomach muscles appear more prominent. In women, it can be difficult to achieve a leaner appearance, especially in the stomach. Surgeons can perform abdominal etching to produce a six-pack stomach with feminine contours.
Before abdominal etching
Who is a good candidate for Abdominal Etching?
The ideal candidate for abdominal etching is an athletic individual with already pronounced abdominal muscles. Even with a consistently healthy diet and exercise regimen, it can be difficult to achieve a defined appearance. An individual with large, strong abdominal muscles can still have difficulties achieving this well-defined look. If you know the frustrations of working hard but still having pockets of fat covering your underlying abs, you may be a candidate for abdominal etching. However, the procedure is not limited to such individuals, as some of our patients request this procedure following a tummy tuck or abdominal liposuction in order to really make their abs stand out.

Is abdominal etching a safe method of gaining abs?
According to the report, none of the 50 patients undergoing abdominal etching had major complications requiring hospitalization or return to the operating room. Nevertheless, are these types of cosmetic surgeries good for the mental health of a patient? Similar to other cosmetic surgeries such as breast implants , does the materialistic benefit of having abs fulfil the innate human desire of looking good or more importantly what is deemed/perceived to look good?
Minor complications occurred in 22% of patients, such as contour irregularities (usually “over-etching”) that typically soften up and improve over time. Seromas developed in 10% of patients, and were promptly managed by a simple office procedure.
The patients exemplify that the procedure can be performed with optimal aesthetic results, and minimal postoperative complications.
They hope their technique and experience of abdominal etching will serve as a useful guide to other plastic surgeons who are interested in offering this relatively new procedure. The authors add: “We also highlight our extensive post-operative management, with the addition of a multidisciplinary nutrition and personal training team with the goal to maintain [patients’] long-term results and retain their newly etched abdominals.”
What to do before abdominal etching operation?
- Consult with a qualified plastic surgeon to find out if you are a good candidate for a high-def liposuction on abs
- Stop smoking and drinking several weeks prior to your surgery appointment
- Make sure to have someone to take you home or to the hotel after you are discharged from the clinic or hospital
- Do not eat anything 12 hours prior to the surgery
- Stop blood-thinning and anti-inflammatory medications and supplements, e.g. aspirin, a few weeks prior to surgery
The procedure of Abdominal etching
The abdominal etching procedure usually takes only an hour, and can be performed as an outpatient procedure under either local or general anesthesia. Before surgery, the doctor will outline the patient’s abdominal muscles and use these lines to serve as a guide during surgery. During the procedure, several small incisions are made in the naval or the natural creases of the abdomen, where they are inconspicuous. A cannula, or a flexible tube, is then inserted through the incisions to sculpt the abs by removing excess fat along the lines of the patient’s abdominal muscles. The four or five remaining scars are very small - only about an eighth or a quarter inch in length.

What to do after Abdominal Etching operation
You will experience some degree of swelling, bruising and discomfort after a six-pack surgery, which is normal.
