Reduce fat

As well as being overweight or suffering from the symptoms of obesity which can cause excess fat in the stomach area, some people find that they have pockets of fatty tissue in the abdomen which are hard to shift, even with a healthy diet and exercise. Women who have had children, and/or had a caesarean section can find that they experience a pot belly which they struggle to flatten. Various aesthetic treatments, surgical options and lifestyle procedures exist to help you to reduce fat in the stomach, for both men and women.
