Remove Stubborn Fat with Liposuction

Liposuction

Liposuction is a procedure that has been used by many individuals around the world to get rid of unwanted pockets of fat. They have been able to use this procedure to make areas such as their stomach, their back, and their thighs look better. It is important to note that liposuction is a surgical procedure. When determining whether or not it is right for you, it is good to get as much information about the procedure as you can.

First and foremost, liposuction is not designed to be a weight loss tool. The idea that this procedure is designed to remove a lot of weight is a myth. In fact, before cosmetic surgeons perform the procedure, they want their patients to be at a relatively stable weight, be close to their healthy body weight, and only be battling with a few areas of fatty deposits that they cannot get rid of through diet and exercise alone.

Liposuction is designed to remove fat underneath the skin. It does not necessarily get rid of cellulite. This is because cellulite is not caused by fat inasmuch as it’s caused by a weakening of the tissues between your skin and your fat layer.

One of the nice things about liposuction is that during the procedure, fat cells are removed. Some mistakenly believe that if they have this procedure done to remove fat from their midsection, the fat will grow back in another area. There is no scientific proof of this. If you do not maintain a good diet and if you do not have a good exercise routine, the fat cells that you have in other parts of your body will grow larger. However, liposuction does not mean that fat will automatically grow somewhere else.

Contrary to popular belief, there are many men who consider liposuction. The idea of lipo being particularly for women has faded away. Liposuction is a safe procedure. But it is still a surgical procedure. As with any surgical procedure, there will be downtime for recovery. As such, to be a good candidate for lipo, it is important to have realistic expectations regarding the procedure, as well as the recovery.

Liposuction is a phenomenal tool. It has helped many people sculpt their body into something that they are proud of. Make an appointment at Rios Center for Plastic Surgery in Edinburg to learn more information. Contact our office today to schedule a consultation!
