Does having liposuction causes an increase in visceral fat?

E96
I've read that if you undergo a liposuction procedure, as a defence mechanism the body produces more internal fat. Is this true? I'm interested in having liposuction but I think it would be useless if I'm going to develop the worst kind of fat afterwards.
