By design, liposuction is a contouring procedure for areas where genetic fat deposits have proven to be resistant to exercise and diet. To achieve optimal outcomes, liposuction should occur in areas where fat is not excessive, the skin is elastic, and there is a reasonable supply of muscle tone. Liposuction is not a way for you to lose a dramatic amount of weight, but rather a partner in your weight loss journey. If you’re struggling to lose the last few pounds or reach your desired body shape, liposuction can help you reach those goals.
