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: 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
