Liposuction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that removes fat from unwanted areas of the body. It can be done in several areas of the body including abdomen, inner thighs, hips, arms, legs, breast and even the cheeks.
The procedure improves the general outlook of the body and inspires confidence in those who undergo it. Exercise and diet are very important regimens for weight loss. However, the results may be painfully slow for some people while others fail to lose weight despite adherence to recommended exercise and dietary programs. Although weight loss is not its main indication, liposuction helps remove the fat that wouldn’t go away with most exercise regime like the pot belly as well as belly fat rolls that sag around the belly and the love handles.
Liposuction is not only for those who want to lose extra pounds especially the stubborn pot belly, but can also benefit to those who have a general positive outlook and want to look in a certain way.
It improves the self esteem of people who have suffered body shaming for having excess fat in the abdomen, the breast, the hips and other places.
Excess fat in different body areas may limit physical activity and contribute to a poor quality of life. Liposuction can improve the quality of life by trimming off the excess.
It is important to note that in as much as liposuction helps with weight loss, it is not a treatment for obesity. It is therefore not a substitute for exercise or diet.
Who can undergo a liposuction?
Not everyone qualifies for a liposuction. It is good for those who meet the following criteria:
-Adults within 30% of their ideal body weight with good muscle tone and elastic skin
-Individuals who are healthy without a serious illness or any other medical condition that can interfere with healing.
-Non smokers
-Individuals with a general positive outlook with specific goals for body sculpting.
To prepare for a liposuction, you may have to stop some meds that you are taking such as aspirin that may increase the risk of bleeding alongside other medication and supplements. You must also stop smoking because smoking impairs healing. Eat healthy and keep your body hydrated as this quickens the healing process. It is also important to talk to your surgeon about the whole process so that you are well informed before undergoing the procedure.
