Liposuction of fat would decrease your basal metabolic rate correct? So doesn't that mean lipo will slow down your metabolism? There is less fat in your body so you would need less calories to maintain your weight?
Answer: BMR Your muscle mass has a more significant effect on your metabolic rate. Liposuction has not been shown to slow down metabolism in any way. BMR "calculators" are based on your height and weight. Yes, you will lose a few pounds with liposuction, but probably not more than 10. Even with the most aggressive liposuction, 5 liters is typically the max most surgeons remove at one time. SO, in reality, could it impact your BMR? Maybe, but only by a few calories per day.

Answer: Lipo and Metabolism Neither traditional or #vaser liposuction are a method of #weight loss or an alternative to diet and exercise. They do not affect one's metabolism. It is usually recommended that patients who have recently experienced weight loss and massive weight loss (#MWL) remain consistent at their weight for at least six to twelve months prior any cosmetic surgery. Such will better ensure longer lasting results of the procedure without risking the fluctuation and stretching of the skin tissue. Vaser liposuction, also known as Vaser #lipo, LipoSelection or Liposuction, is an advanced body #contouring procedure that selectively removes unwanted body fat. An alternative to the harsh techniques of traditional liposuction, #Vaser lipo uses state-of-the-art ultrasound technology designed to gently #reshape your body. There are three types of #Vaser Lipo. Each benefit patients differently depending on their needs. An ideal #candidate for Vaser Liposuction is a person in good health who seeks a minimally invasive way to remove stubborn fat with less downtime than traditional #liposuction. Vaser is ideal for those seeking improved definition of muscles and contouring. Those who seek increased sculpting of are ideal vaser lipo candidates.

Answer: Lipo and metabolism If you can maintain your weight, then you will not gain additional fat just because of liposuction. The areas that are liposuctioned are less likely to become large, and any additional increases in fat weight will redistribute. To be sure, all of the effects of liposuction on lipid metabolism have not been worked out.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic SurgeonLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Lipo Body I have performed this procedure on thousands of patients over many years and I don't see any clinical evidence of a change in metabolism.
