FUPA, Fat Upper Pelvic Area Liposuction Orlando

Fat Upper Pubic Area Liposuction

The acronym FUPA (Fat Upper Pubic Area) is fatty tissue above the pubic bone. The actual term is panniculus. FUPA became a meme when Beyoncé talked about her pregnancy in Vogue’s September issue that left her with a little FUPA. The fat in the upper pubic area below the belly button can be incredibly difficult and even impossible to target and remove with just exercise and diet. For some, even going into the beast zone mode of intense exercise will never resolve their fat cells in the upper pubic region.

It is a genetic predisposition to having extra fat deposits in the lower belly for most people. Using SmartLipo, a safe, proven, and gentle treatment, you can remove that bulge in your lower midsection in a cosmetic liposuction procedure performed under two hours.

Guidelines after surgery

  • Eat a healthy and balanced diet: After any surgery, patients should refrain from consuming fast food and other processed foods. Prepare meals consisting of fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, and seeds. Dieting has very little to do with calories. It is about feeding your body right: correct quantities and at regular hours.
  • Drink at least eight glasses of water a day.
  • Avoid carbonated drinks that will increase the feeling of bloating
  • Wear compression garments during the healing process. Compression garments assist the body’s tissues in healing and reforming as the FUPA area’s skin adapts to a new shape. Wearing the compression garments will ensure that you get the best results from your liposuction treatment.
  • Massaging the upper pubic area can help accelerate healing for optimal results.
  • Take any prescribed medications by your surgeon.
  • Your new self will be enchanted with your body image, but it should be accompanied by a series of exercises to firm your lower abs as the loose skin can resorb itself naturally. Who knows, if you put your mind and body to it, you are on your way to getting a six-pack!
