Will liposuction be effective if I get very bloated often?

i have wanted lipo for a while but held off because im worried it may ot be worth it. i am not super thin or anything. but i get extremely bloated very often, almost daily, to the point where i look pregnant. would liposuction be worth it or would i continue to look bloated and fat all the time due to my extreme bloating, which is not related to fat cells?

At 5’2” and 110 lbs, you're already in great shape. That stubborn "B-shape" is just down to your natural genetics, which is why diet and exercise haven't been able to change it. Liposuction will flatten out the upper and lower fat pockets to give you a much smoother profile, but it is imp...
