What's the longevity of liposuction results during menopause hormonal changes, when my diet and exercise are sensible? (Photo)

November 2, 2017
Asked By:sizzlerey in Illinois, IL

Menopause shifting of fat has made it so I can no longer lose love handles, thigh and abdominal fat even after months on my go-to 1000-1200kcal diet. I lose a few pounds but my shape is completely different. If I have liposuction now, 6 months perimenopausal, will the fat only keep coming back as I get further along into menopause? I'm afraid my extreme diet and exercise past is making 1200kcal seem like a normal day to my metabolism and not working to melt these problem areas. Should I wait?
