You’ve hemmed and hawed and done your research. Maybe you’ve even gone on consultations, met with surgeons and considered all of your options. But for some reason, you still haven’t booked an appointment to have liposuction. What are you waiting for? Here are five solid reasons to finally book the appointment you’ve been putting off and reap those liposuction benefits.
1. It Can Contour Your Body
Liposuction isn’t intended to help you lose weight on the whole. It’s meant to strategically remove very specific pockets of stubborn fat that haven’t been responding to regular weight loss methods like eating a healthy diet and getting plenty of exercise. If you’ve been struggling with your silhouette and have areas of unwanted extra baggage, liposuction could help. Liposuction benefits the abdomen, hips and thighs.
Because of its targeted approach, you’re able to remove areas of excess that can help balance and contour the shape of your body.
2. It Can Actually Remove Fat
One of the prime benefits of liposuction is that it actually removes fat cells. While there are varying liposuction techniques, they all use suction to physically remove stubborn fat cells from the body. Once the fat is gone, it is much more difficult – though not impossible – for it to come back. If weight can be maintained following a lipo procedure, the chance of fat returning to the areas on which the liposuction was performed is greatly reduced.
3. It Can Be Paired with Other Body Contouring Procedures
Liposuction can absolutely be customized specifically to you. It can also be paired with other procedures to put you that much closer to the figure you’ve been envisioning for yourself. Liposuction can be combined with a drainless tummy tuck, a Brazilian butt lift, or even as part of a mommy makeover. This allows you to carefully reshape your body without the downtime of several separate procedures.
Liposuction is by no means a one-size-fits-all procedure. Customize it to meet your unique needs and goals.
4. It Could Restore Your Confidence
The reason that most people get liposuction isn’t because they aspire to look like a celebrity or supermodel. It’s because they want to look like themselves. Feeling comfortable with the way your body looks and feels is a liposuction benefit that outweighs all the rest. Struggling against relentless unwanted fat can be as much a mental challenge as it is physical. By finally booking your appointment, you can help regain your confidence and feel at home in your own skin.
5. It Could Help Improve Your Health
Would you believe that improved health can be a benefit of liposuction? According to research, reducing fat through liposuction could have positive impacts on health conditions like lymphedema, gynecomastia, lipodystrophy syndrome and fatty tumors known as lipomas. Some initial studies have even reported a reduction in triglyceride levels in the blood on liposuction recipients.
It doesn’t matter the reason you’ve been putting off booking your appointment. The benefits of liposuction are plain to see. Whether you’re interested in contouring your body, tackling specific trouble spots or simply feeling more confident in your own skin, now is the time to make a date with your doctor and book your appointment.
