Is abdominal etching permanent?

Yes. the etching is a permanent result. I perform this procedure on both men and women. The fat that is removed with liposuction is a permanent removal of the fat cells in that area. With etching, the fat is skillfully removed in specific areas to enhance the athletic appearance of the abdomen. So with some weight gain, there will always be a slight appearance of an etch. With weight loss, the opposite happens. The definition of the abs will become more apparent faster and more defined.

Who is a candidate for abdominal etching

Abdominal etching is "next level" liposuction that is technically difficult to perform. I personally love performing this procedure as it does require a high level of skill and an aesthetic eye. I perform by far more often with men. Recently performing more on women. For both, I will only perform this procedure if this etching fits their athletic physique they have already. If you don't work out consistently and can attain a 6 pack with diet and exercise, then I will likely tell you no. Having an etched abdomen with a "couch potato" physique will look weird in my opinion. I won't do it. The most common person asking for this procedure are those that live a healthier lifestyle in diet and exercise. Eat clean for most part and exercise frequently. Maintaining a 6 pack is difficult year round. The etching allows for a more flexible lifestyle to enjoy work and personal life with a little more freedom in diet. While "looking" like 10%-15% less body fat with visible abdominal muscles! Hope this helps and thank you for watching!
