Everybody has their own personal reasons for choosing to undergo liposuction, but here are some of the most common ones:
Liposuction is an incredibly popular cosmetic surgery procedure, and it’s not difficult to see why. Many men and women alike want to be thinner, fitter, and more sculpted. While diet and exercise is still the best and most sustainable way to lose weight and achieve your ideal body, liposuction offers a quick and permanent solution to some weight loss problems.
Also known as lipoplasty or liposculpture, liposuction is a process that creates a thinner, more sculpted body shape by removing excess fat in specific problem areas. The process is targeted and can be used on the stomach, upper arms, neck, legs, hips, and most other parts of the body.
A thin tube called a cannula dislodges and sucks the fatty tissue out of the body which reduces the fat cells there permanently. There are different types of liposuction, such as tumescent, ultrasound, laser, and other methods. Lipo can be done on its own or used in conjunction with other procedures to maximize the results.
Everybody has their own personal reasons for choosing to undergo liposuction, but here are some of the most common ones:
Liposuction contours the body, allowing its naturally beautiful shape to come out. This is especially true for people who are happy with their weight but, due to their body’s proportions and weight distribution, can’t get the silhouette they want. Liposuction allows them to balance out their bodies to achieve their ideal figure.
Have you ever gone on a diet and exercise program that worked wonders but still couldn’t get rid of that last few inches of fat? This is where liposuction comes in. When a healthy, active lifestyle can’t get you the results you want, liposuction can bridge the gap between the body you have now and the body you’ve been working towards.
When you look your best, you feel your best. Having a body that you can be proud of is guaranteed to make you much more confident. Many patients report feeling better about themselves and their bodies after undergoing liposuction procedures.
Because liposuction involves the removal of fat cells, the results are often permanent. Fat cells do not grow back, so you can enjoy your new and improved body for as long as you maintain it with a healthy diet and regular exercise. You can still gain weight, of course, but your body will likely deposit fat in other areas of your body due to the decreased fat cells.
Did you know that fat cells can exist in the blood? The body naturally produces these fat cells, also known as triglycerides, but an excessive amount of them is linked to an increased risk of heart disease. According to a study, people who underwent lipo showed a 43% reduction of triglycerides immediately after the surgery.
