Liposuction is a cosmetic technique that removes stubborn fat that you just can’t get rid of, no matter how much you diet and exercise. The procedure is carried out by a plastic surgeon and the procedure is done on your hips, belly, thighs, buttocks, back, arms, and even under the chin or face to improve shape. You are a good candidate for Liposuction if you don’t have a lot of excess skin, have good skin elasticity, have good muscle tone, have fat that won’t disappear with diet or exercise, and are in good physical shape and health.
The good news is that liposuction does permanently remove fat. If a patient at 130 pounds had liposuction treatment and had six pounds removed, the fat will stay off the individual maintains a weight at or below 124 pounds. However, if the patient gains a small amount of weight, for example 5 pounds, the results will diminish. This means that if you allow the fat to come back, then it will. The key to keeping results long-lasting is to eat well and make sure you exercise. What you also need to do is eat the right foods, like fruits, vegetables, etc. It is important to speak with your doctor on the best diet and exercise plans following your Liposuction procedure.
During the procedure, patients are required to go under anesthesia, which means no pain is felt during the surgery. However, pain is felt after the surgery and during the recovery phase. There are some important tips to minimize the pain before and after the procedure. Before going under, talk to your doctor about pain concerns you already have, discuss the type of anesthesia being used, and ask about any medications that can be taken before the procedure. Following the procedure, make sure you take all the prescribed medications, and wear compression garments that your doctor provides, rest and relax, drink lots of fluids, and stay away from salt as it will increase swelling. Also, the level of pain following the treatment depends on what parts of the body required Liposuction, and your doctor will make recommendations on how to best manage it.
