Am I a Good Candidate for Liposuction?


Nobody likes to look in the mirror and see fat hanging around. You may diet and exercise every day, but there is still resistant fat that is clinging to your body. It can get so frustrating that you want to throw in the towel. Don’t give up on yourself. You can sculpt your body to get the results that you want. You just might need a little help from our talented plastic surgeon.

Liposuction is a popular and effective way to eliminate that pesky fat that has been plaguing you. Thanks to advances in ultrasound technology, this procedure can be done with significantly fewer risks and less downtime. But first, you need to find out if you are a good candidate.

Will Liposuction Work for You?

The best candidates for this treatment are people in good overall health with realistic expectations. However, you should be happy to know that almost anyone who is interested in removing stubborn body fat can benefit from this procedure as long as they are at or near their goal weight.

It Works for Stubborn Fat

If you’re thinking about liposuction, it should not be a solution when you have to lose a significant amount of weight. If you have a few areas that are bothering you, like your stomach or your buttocks and thighs, liposuction can help you to finally take care of that fat that won’t respond to all of your efforts. Typical areas of the body that may be treated with liposuction include the upper arms, back, stomach, thighs and buttocks.

Long-Lasting Results with Your Efforts

Once you’ve had liposuction, you are going to need to work to maintain your results. That means following a healthy diet and continuing to be active. If you do not watch what you do, you could gain weight all over again. Fat will deposit in those trouble spots if you are not careful.
