What You Need To Know Before Liposuction

Despite the huge popularity of liposuction, it is one of the plastic surgery’s most misunderstood procedures. It is true that liposuction can offer remarkable results when it comes to body contouring and fat reduction, but there are some common misconceptions when it comes to the use and results of the procedure. If you are considering liposuction, here are some things we at The Kole Plastic Surgery Center Center want you to understand.

Liposuction is NOT an Alternative to Exercise

While liposuction can make great improvements where exercise ceases to make a difference, exercise still plays a very important role in the liposuction procedure. It is essential that patients are in good health both before and after their procedure, and exercise is the best way to ensure optimal health. Regular exercise helps make sure the body is able to recover properly after liposuction and is the best way to maintain your results as long as possible.

Liposuction is for Stubborn Fat Deposits

A big misconception with liposuction is that it can be used to remove large amounts of fat from the body. However, liposuction is only intended for smaller pockets of fat that have been resistant to diet and exercise. A limited amount of fat can be removed during a single liposuction treatment, so we recommend that patients be close to their ideal weight before scheduling a liposuction.

Liposuction Doesn’t Treat Sagging Skin

Liposuction cannot treat sagging skin, as is often found in people who have experienced significant weight loss. Liposuction simply removes the fat from the body, so it is possible that extra skin can remain. If this is a concern, you may be able to schedule another procedure in combination with your liposuction to treat loose skin.
