Quick Liposuction Overview

How Liposuction Supports Gender-Affirming Body Contouring Goals

Liposuction plays a valuable role in gender-affirming body contouring by helping individuals shape their bodies to better reflect their gender identity. 

Shaping Masculine, Feminine, & Androgynous Silhouettes

For those desiring a more feminine figure, liposuction can enhance a more traditionally feminine silhouette by slimming the waist, abdomen, back, and thighs, often in combination with fat transfer to areas like the hips or buttocks to create curves. 

Conversely, for patients who want to masculinise the body, liposuction can be used to achieve a flatter, more angular appearance by targeting the hips, thighs, and waist, or to enhance the results of chest masculinisation (top surgery) by removing fat from around the chest and underarms for a more defined, masculine contour.

For non-binary and gender-fluid patients, liposuction can be personalised to create an androgynous body shape that aligns with their gender identity. 

Customising Liposuction to Suit Your Gender Expression

Liposuction and fat transfer are the two main tools a surgeon has to sculpt the body. 

One of the main benefits of liposuction is that it is highly customisable and can be designed with your gender identity in mind. For example, you may wish to target a specific part of the body that is causing you feelings of gender incongruence, like the chest or hips.

Gender-Affirming Liposuction Techniques Explained

There are many different types of liposuction that can be used depending on your body and your aesthetic goals. 

At CREO Gender, we offer a range of different liposuction technologies that use different techniques to help you align your body with your gender identity. In addition, several techniques can be combined in one surgery to fine tune liposuction to match your gender-affirming goals: 

• Power Assisted Liposuction (PAL) – Uses motorised cannulas to effectively remove large amounts of fat.
• Radiofrequency Assisted Liposuction (BodyTite) – Minimally invasive type of liposuction to break up fat and tighten the skin simultaneously.
• Ultrasound Assisted Liposuction (Vaser) – Removes fat closer to the muscle by using sound energy to break fat apart for finer contouring.

Fat Transfer

Fat transfer can play a central role in gender-affirming care and is used in combination with liposuction to enhance body contouring results. 

After liposuction removes unwanted fat from areas like the abdomen, flanks, or thighs, the harvested fat can be purified and injected into areas such as the hips and buttocks to create softer, more feminine curves or to refine masculine features. This natural approach not only sculpts the body but also enhances overall symmetry and balance, helping individuals achieve a physical appearance that aligns more closely with their gender identity.
