Schumer's name isn't far on the list when it comes to body positivity advocates as the stand-up personality has established herself as a confident woman in the entertainment business.

However, life's trials and tribulations slowly chipped the "Trainwreck" star's charismatic nature until she needed a little help from doctors to keep her spirits up.

In the past, the Comedy Central alum never imagined she would get liposuction, but once she did, the mother-of-one couldn't be happier with her decision.

During her conversation with Handler, "The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo" author said, "I got liposuction. I never thought that I was going to do anything like that."

The Broadway actress added that the cosmetic procedure sounded like a "crazy" idea but undergoing a C-section and turning 40 was enough to change the entertainer's mind.

Schumer explained that she began considering liposuction after suffering from endometriosis and experiencing a difficult pregnancy plus the delivery of her son Gene.

Once the "I Feel Pretty" star healed from these painful ordeals, she immediately requested the cosmetic procedure, and the 40-year-old has no regrets.

The comedian proudly told the podcast's host that she felt "really good" about her body, which was also the reason for her honesty. In the TV personality's words:

"I just wanted to say that, because if anybody sees me in pictures or anything and they're like, she looks thinner, and whatever: it's because I had a surgery. It's too hard, and I just want to be real about it."

This heartwarming interview came two months after The Blast shared that the Primetime Emmy Award winner had flaunted her toned new body on Instagram.

On January 18, the "Snatched" star shared two pictures of herself on the beach in a black one-piece swimsuit designed with a revealing back.

The actress looked noticeably slimmer and radiated with confidence as she soaked up the sun while dropping model-like poses for the camera.

In the stunning post's caption, the entertainer gave a special shout-out to the surgeons responsible for giving back her self-esteem. The "Expecting Amy" star wrote:

"I feel good. Finally, It's been a journey. Thanks for helping me get my strength back @seckinmd (endo) @jordanternermd (lipo)."

The mother-of-one also included a side note for critics in her caption that read, "Never thought I would do anything but talk to me after your uterus doesn't contract for 2.5 years and you turn 40."

Haters had no place in Schumer's post as the comment section was flooded with love and support from fans and celebrities like Sas Goldberg and Michelle Pfeiffer.
