Liposuction - Not Weight Loss Method

Often, long-term and unsuccessful attempts to lose weight make you think about more radical methods of weight loss. For example, plastic surgery to remove excess fat offers liposuction. In many clinics, liposuction is performed on the abdomen, thighs, chin and even the shek. But is it correct to use this method for weight loss?
Doctors emphasize: liposuction is a means of correction of the figure. This means that with this operation you can remove local accumulations of fat in areas where it is impossible to cope with them only through diet or exercise. Removing fat deposits helps to make the abdomen flat and reduce the waist, all this gives the figure a more attractive outline. But if you need a weight reduction of 20 kg, liposuction can be considered only as an auxiliary. The main means of losing weight should be a rational diet in conjunction with physical exertion. This will allow you to lose weight in a natural way, reducing your weight gradually, no more than 2 kg per month. By the way, with liposuction, doctors also do not recommend removing more than 2 kg of fat in one session. Otherwise, the body will begin to intensively restore lost fat cells.

Who recommends liposuction?

For liposuction, ideal candidates are people with a relatively normal and stable weight, but with the presence of excess fat in the problem areas (in the abdomen, on the sides, hips, legs). According to statistics, almost half of the patients going for liposuction are slender young women who have small fat deposits that spoil the figure. For a good result, the condition of the skin is also very important: it should be elastic enough and elastic. With flabby and stretched skin after removal of fat, an additional operation is required - abdominoplasty, which removes excess skin and forms a beautiful abdominal relief.

As for very fat people, they are not recommended for liposuction. For those who are obese, treatment should begin with consultation of the endocrinologist, a special diet and increasing physical exertion.

Will fat be postponed after liposuction?

Liposuction leads to the fact that the number of fat cells that can accumulate fat, dramatically decreases. But if after the operation does not adhere to a reasonable diet and exercise, fat will start to be deposited in other places. That is why the necessary condition for the long-term preservation of the result of the operation is compliance with all recommendations for nutrition and physical exertion. Only in this case it will be possible to keep your figure slender for many years.
