After liposuction you experience a lot of swelling, which contributes to weight fluctuation in the beginning. In order to have the best results, it is good to have a well-balanced diet, including carbohydrates, fruits, vegetables, and proteins. You should be careful not to overeat. A low salt diet and drinking water liberally will help the edema go away a bit faster as will walking increasing distances. See below link for more information
I recommend a balanced diet with a series of protein shakes, but once again your surgeon should be providing you with this information as advice will differ. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA
the best diet after lipo is a diet of multiple small feedings, not starvation. walking one hour also helps rev up your metabolism. don't skip meals and don't eat more than a handful and you'll see great results.

Buyer beware! Liposuction comes in many different forms and the amount of liposuction done also varies from patient to patient. My Coolsculpting patients can, in fact, come in during their lunch hour for fat removal. However, they are well educated on the results that they can...
What you have on the back of your skull and neck are skin rolls which contain some fat. But I would have no confidence that liposuction is going to make them go away...or even become less pronounced. This is a scalp skin excess problem not really a 'fat' problem per se. While the rolls could be...
The skin on the inner thigh is quite thin and can become reactive to liposuction with a bruise like blush to the skin. Sun exposure during this time can result in pigmentation or bronzing which can last a very long time, so keep the area covered. A second round of liposuction, especially close...
Yes! Just get the lipo to the love handles. Here are some good reasons: Liposuction to the love handles gives the existing butt more of a bubble butt appearance It decreases the waist to hip ratio (smaller waist in relation to hips) Gives a better "shelf" Some of the...
