Actually, there's an FDA-approved procedure called CoolSculpting that freezes fat cells in a targeted area. It's much safer then lipo. It's expensive though and is for smaller amounts of fat.

The body will redistribute fat cells though. The best thing to do is to lower your overall body fat percentage through diet and exercise. If it's hanging around your midsection more, that's mainly genetic, but can still be reduced. If you're worried about the rest of you, add some weight training to balance out the proportions. Adding muscle to your arms, chest, back and legs will help reduce your spare tire too.
