Abdominal etching, also known as six-pack liposculpture, is an effective procedure to define abdominal muscles or sculpt a six-pack contour in the abdominal area. Many men and women devote a large portion of their exercise to building abdominal muscles. Even with exercise, however, not everybody can achieve that athletic six-pack muscle definition. Some people find it difficult to increase the thickness of the abdominal muscles even with strenuous abdominal exercises. In others, abdominal muscles may be covered with a fatty skin layer, which hides the definition of the muscles.
Abdominal etching works for those who do exercise and also for those who don’t exercise. It may be combined with liposuction in other midsection areas, such as the flanks and lower back.
