I have always gone to a gym religiously and always see many people fighting the fat battle. Are there any studies that show weight loss results are better when fat is simply removed (liposuction) vs. dieting? It's been my result and my observation of people with a weight problem almost always gain all and sometimes more weight back after dieting.On the other hand, I keep hearing that people who have had liposuction will gain the fat back in different areas. Is this correct? I have not seen this from the people I know that had liposuction and am leaning towards it. Also, do blood values get better in some cases, just wondering?
Answer: Liposuction is a great motivator for patients to lose weight and increase exercise Your observations are true. People who have had liposuction tend to be more motivated to continue dieting and exercising to keep their great shape rather than the patients who give up on the dieting and exercising because they don't see significant change. Everyone needs motivation somewhere along the line in their trek to look and feel better. Liposuction is perfect for that. You won't lose much weight at all with lipo but you will in the long term since you will be motivated to continue the dieting and exercising and more apt to keep it up. The $5000 you spend for a typical lipo is so worth it.

Answer: Liposuction is not a replacement for dieting Although liposuction provides immediate improvement in volume reduction, and this may give you the motivation to continue to lose weight with exercise and diet, it is a bad idea to do liposuction if you are not already watching your caloric intake and the food groups you consume as well as being involved in an exercise regimen. If you only have liposuction, you are destined to put the weight right back on.

Answer: Weight loss through liposuction? Not a great idea. Liposuction should be considered a way to sculpt the body and smooth out problem areas that have always been heavy even when you are at good weight for your health and body. In general, if you eat more calories than you burn up you will build your fat stores and this will continue to be the case after liposuction too. You are correct also that you will start to store fat in areas other than the spots where you have had liposuction, and this can often be in bad places like inside the abdomen.

Answer: Liposuction vs Dieting Absolutely not. Liposuction is not weight reduction and those whose choose this route will be disappointed. It is not too uncommon for me to turn patients away for liposuction because their intentions and expectations will not be met because there are looking for a weight loss program.
