Will Additional Weight Loss (10lbs) After Lipo of Abs and Flanks Hurt my Results?

Weight loss after liposuction won't harm a liposuction result. In fact, most will look better after a loss of 10 pounds if it is warranted. If stubborn weight loss-resistant areas were treated with lipo first, then, weight loss may seem easier. If a pool of fat cells has been eliminated with liposuction, then a calorie burn with a weight loss effort means that those calories have to come from a small pool of remaining fat cells. It does seem to be easier to achieve a noticeable change with your efforts.

Losing weight after liposuction greatly enhances your results.  I encourage all of my liposuction patients to try to lose a few pounds after having liposuction.

In my experience, additional weight loss after lipo usually improves things rather than make anything worse, so I would not worry about it.

Losing 10 Pounds, especially if done slowly (over 2-3 months) should not affect the result of your liposuction, especially if you have normal skin tone.

No, weight loss after liposuction will not ruin a good result, but the most ideal way of undergoing this elective recontouring procedure is to get to your ideal body weight and have liposuction performed on the bulge that just won't leave!

Liposuction removes a proportion of the fat volume from a given region. Weight loss tends to reduce fat cell volume. In our experience, patients who undergo weight loss following their liposuction procedures tend to have a dramatic, pleasing result. I would be all for it.

An additional 10 pound weight loss following your liposuction may improve your result  or have little effect. Of course, this would depend on your present weight. The effect will be much different if you are presently 220 vs 120 pounds. At the higher weight, you will probably not see much of a change but at 120 pounds you will.

Additional weight loss after abdominal and flank liposuction will only enhance the results you have already seen. Many patients find it easier to lose a little weight after they have recovered from liposuction and are usually quite motivated to do so.
