::Liposuction The
procedure over the past ten years has been perfected by Dermatologists
and Plastic Surgeons into a safe and effective surgical procedure
for reducing and contouring areas of unwanted body fat.
What Areas Can Be Treated? Men
usually have problems with their stomachs and "love handles".
In women the areas most often treated are their thighs and buttocks,
but stomachs and even double chins can be improved.
Is the Fat Removal Permanent? Yes!
After puberty we do not create many new fat cells, but the ones we have
can expand when we gain weight. Liposuction permanently removes fat cells
so the localized fatty deposits that are removed can no longer balloon
up out of proportion to the surrounding area.
Am I a Good Candidate for Liposuction?
The best candidates for liposuction:
:: have firm, elastic skin
:: are fit with a healthy lifestyle
:: have tried to eliminate bulges through diet, exercise
and weight loss
:: have distinct areas of localized fat that are disproportionate
to the rest of the bodies
:: have realistic expectations
:: understand that liposuction is not a substitute
for weight loss
