Will I Lose Weight After Liposuction?

One thing you should understand if you’re a Southfield-area resident considering liposuction is that this is not a weight loss procedure. Liposuction is used to remove stubborn deposits of fat that won’t respond to diet or exercise.

To be an ideal liposuction candidate you should be at or near your ideal bodyweight.

Now, when you undergo liposuction you will lose a little weight. Dr. Rouchdi Rifai will remove several pounds of fat from the treatment area (the precise amount will be determined based on your unique circumstances). After some initial swelling subsides and the fluid we injected to aid the liposuction process is absorbed, you will be a few pounds lighter.

However, this is not the main point of liposuction. Instead, liposuction helps you reach your aesthetic goals by removing fat and contouring your body. You’ll have a smoother, sleeker, more attractive shape.

If you live in the Southfield, Michigan area and you’re considering liposuction to remove fat deposits that diet and exercise haven’t been able to touch, please contact Birmingham Cosmetic Surgery and today.
