Are you tired of endless crunches and following a nutrition plan that doesn’t seem to give you even a slight hint of abs?

“Well, you are not alone.” 

Achieving that cut midsection is one of the hardest things in fitness for most people.

This is where ab etching surgery in Korea comes in: transforming that athletic dream into reality without unrealistic gym time or diet regimens.

At Lydian Clinic, we said goodbye to implementing mere fat removal for body contouring with the introduction of our Hi-Def Liposculpture techniques.

With this approach led by Dr. Abraham An, one does not just remove the fat but sculpts into place very precise muscle lines for a finely defined and natural-looking athletic appearance.

Why Choose Ab Etching Surgery?

Ab etching surgery is a specific type of liposuction, isolating subtle bound areas around your abdominal muscles.

This enhances the body’s natural musculature to provide the desired “washboard” look.

Both Men and Women:

Abs visible to the naked eye is often hard to achieve without the role of the genetic set-up or lifestyle factors.

With clean eating and intense daily workouts, stubborn fat often clings around the midsection.

Their ab etching directly works on it: removing just the right layers of fat so you can finally display your well-defined and hard-worked-out muscles.

Men get ripped abs as if these have been cut out after intense exercises; while at Lydian Clinic, women are worked upon to enhance natural curves to acquire a slim, toned body without looking too muscular.

The Science Behind Our Method

The fat present above the stomach muscles will be removed selectively using ab etching techniques.

In most cases this reveals an underlying structure that resembles six-packs so it seems they are having more detail.

This procedure suits those persons who are physically fit but find it hard to get rid of belly fat that prevents their muscles from being visible. It’s not meant to lose weight.

1. Preparing for Surgery-Ab Etching

To obtain an excellent outcome during your upcoming ab etching surgery, we advise:

Keeping a stable weight several months before the operation:

• Eating well and exercising often for better health
• Stop smoking and minimize alcohol
• Avoid certain drugs plus herbs as they may cause increased bleeding if taken

We will give you a detailed preoperative guide during the consultation session tailored to suit your individual needs.

2. Recovery and Aftercare

Proper aftercare is essential despite the fact that Ab etching is less invasive in comparison with conventional abdominal surgeries.

So expect the following:

– Always put on the compression garments for controlling swelling and supporting the newly created gynecomastia physique.

– Walk around occasionally to avoid stagnation of blood that can lead to clots within your veins.

– Do not do any heavy exercises until four to six weeks are over.

– Consume nutritious meals that would help in healing as well as maintain these appearances.

– Moreover do not fail to seek personalized advice from our nurses through attending the regular appointments scheduled for you.

Everything depends on a personal working schedule as soon as one can usually get back to his/her workplace not longer than seven days.

For many individuals however, final results will only appear after three months or so when all swellings have gone down completely; tissues also tend to settle during this period meaning they find their way back into place again if prematurely disturbed.

 

3. Long-Term Results and Maintenance

– Ab etching surgery has permanent results

– Regular exercises which include cardiovascular training and weight lifting exercises would be beneficial in maintaining your new body appearance

– Take balanced diets that contain protein sources like fish or poultry meat products alongside plenty of fruits and vegetables

– Keep your skin elasticity by drinking enough water each day

4. Combine Ab Etching with Other Processors

For an overview of body contouring many people combine ab etching alongside other processes Typically these include:

– Waist liposuction aimed at achieving an hourglass figure

–  Reduction of love handles thus achieving a slimmer silhouette

–  Gynecomastia treatment also referred to as male breast reduction

–  Sculpt the arm or thigh for symmetry purposes

During our consultation, we can discuss how combining services might help you achieve your desired look more conveniently in the shortest time possible.
