What are the most common body types and complaints? Liposuction can be very helpful for those who are unhappy with the shape of their body despite diet and exercise. Some individuals carry stubborn fat in particular areas of the body because of the body type they inherited. In general, there are two basic body types:

• The apple-shaped body type is referred to as “android.” These are the people who carry excess fat in the chest and stomach.
• The pear-shaped body type is referred to as “gynoid.” These are the people who carry excess fat in the hips and thighs.
