Before surgery, guidelines are drawn in the area around your natural muscle shape. Dr. Mordkovich may ask you to flex your muscle so he can get a better idea of your natural contour. Once the guidelines are completed, a highly flexible cannula (one that is different than those we use in liposuction) is inserted between muscle layers to extract fat that hides within the muscle contours. In abdominal etching, we trim the isolated fat between each abdominal muscle to create the washboard look you want.
Our male patients also look to pectoral etching to tighten up their pectoral muscles and offer definition they’re unable to sculpt naturally. For some patients, our gynecomastia procedure which is essentially male breast augmentation can trim excess fat and loose skin from the chest before we consider lipo etching in this area. If there is unevenness in the chest outline, we can reshape the contour to bring balance and symmetry as well as a more masculine profile.
Pectoral etching and abdominal etching can be performed at the same time to create an even more dramatic effect. Many of our male patients find that this is the best possible treatment to achieve their cosmetic goals and boost their self-confidence in their appearance overall.
