There is no easy way to reduce fat on the body. Diet and exercise take commitment, time and effort, but can be effective in losing weight and shaping the body. However, even when you work hard to lose body fat, you can still have areas that stubbornly hold on to stored fat. If you have wondered about liposuction and whether it may be right for you, here are some people that could be good candidates for liposuction.
Post-Pregnancy
For some women, the stomach area never returns to the firm, flat stomach they had before pregnancy, even with exercise and diet. Liposuction, often combined with a tummy tuck, can remove excess fat left on the abdomen and restore a thinner midsection.
Reshaping
Often liposuction is a good choice for those who do not necessarily need to lose weight, but want to reshape their body. If you have areas that store extra fat, even though you are height-weight proportionate, liposuction could trim these trouble spots and give you a more desirable shape.
Permanent Fat Loss
Unlike diet and exercise, liposuction is a permanent solution to removing fat cells. Losing fat through burning it from the body only shrinks the cells; liposuction removes the fat cells completely. For those that tend to gain fat in the same areas, this can be a long-term option to reduce fat storage in those spots.
If any of these situations sound familiar, you also may be a good candidate for liposuction. Schedule a consultation with a plastic surgeon that specializes in advanced liposuction techniques to learn more about this procedure and to determine if it is the right choice for you.
