How long do results last?
Fat removed with liposuction is permanently eliminated. However, if you gain weight again, fat cells can still grow or expand on other parts of the body.
Will there be pain?
After liposuction, you will feel pain or soreness that gradually fades over three to four weeks during your recovery period. After about one month, discomfort should be faded completely.
Is liposuction a weight loss procedure?
Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure. Instead, this surgery helps to sculpt and shape the body. Patients will lose no more than 5-10 pounds of fat during a liposuction procedure.
Will there be scars?
Liposuction requires tiny incisions, which are made in discrete locations. Liposuction scars are about the size of a freckle. They generally fade quickly and are not easily visible, or they may disappear completely.
Will I gain the fat back?
Fat removed during a liposuction procedure will not return. However, if you don’t maintain your weight, fat can be gained in other parts of the body.
What other procedures can be performed with liposuction?
Liposuction is commonly combined with other procedures, such as a tummy tuck, Brazilian butt lift, breast augmentation, facelift, and more.
