I am an overweight individual and have a healthy lifestyle. I work out and eat healthy. How ever due to having PCOS it does not matter how much I work out and eat healthy I will never be close to my "ideal" weight. Even anoerxia could not get me there. So if I were to get liposuction as a plus size person would it at least help me lose a pant size or 2?
Answer: Will Laser-Assisted Lipo Help Me Lose A Pant Size? Liposuction Removes Inches and Contours Shape Liposculpture is designed to contour bodies that are already in shape or are just a little bit overweight. It isn't a weight-loss procedure. However, you can expect to lose up to two to three inches of fat, which may well translate into a lower dress size. Consulting with a board-certified dermatologist will determine if you are a candidate for laser-assisted liposuction.

Answer: Overweight Lipo if your goal is to loose two or more inches from your waistline, then power assisted Liposuction maybe the right procedure for you. Adding laser to your treatment does not increase the retraction of your skin post op, but it does increase the time it takes to complete the procedure. When a patient has poor elasticity of the skin, it is more difficult to complete the numbing potion of power assisted Liposuction. You shouldn't be scared to undergo outpatient Lipo! Reconsider having laser Lipo and focus on two inches off your waste line and continue to avoid sugar. Sugar/carbohydrates are the enemy! Hope this helps.

Answer: Liposuction If you carry excess fat around your abdomen and hips, liposuction can be very helpful. However, if more of your fat is internal around your organs, only weight loss will change that. I would suggest meeting with a board certified plastic surgeon and discussing your concerns and options.

Answer: Liposuction Candidate--Body Contouring, Diet, Exercise, Surgery, VASER HI DEF 4D Liposculpture If you are overweight, you need to lose weight first before undergoing any cosmetic procedure to get the best outcome. For best results, it is recommended to be at your ideal or stable weight before getting a sculpting liposuction procedure. Liposuction is not a weight loss procedure, rather it is for sculpting and defining and removing problem areas that cannot be removed with weight loss and diet / exercise alone. With skin laxity, a tummy tuck or lifting procedure could be performed at the same time. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a bariatric doctor or dietitian. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Weight loss Thanks for the question. Fundamentally liposuction in any way is a body contouring operation and not a substitute for weight loss. That being said I have had excellent results performing liposuction on people needing a boost or a kick start in weight loss. The motivation from seeing a positive body change can be incredibly significant. We have had patients lose 50-75lbs in the few months after surgery simply through the motivation of a positive life event!
