Hi Doctors. Does a lipo procedure reduce your muscle mass? I enjoy lifting wts and wanted to know how bad my muscles will suffer after lipo and tt. Thank you for your help.
Answer: Liposuction does not reduce muscle mass. Liposuction is generally physiologically a fairly easy procedure on the patient. It has no effect on muscle mass in exercise can be resumed fairly quickly after the operation.

Answer: Does a Liposuction procedure reduce your muscle mass? The answer is NO. Liposuction is great at removing localized areas of fa. Whereas, a tummy tuck wil remove all of the skin at and any stretch marks that lie between the belly button and the pubic area. Give your self at least 8-10 weeks before returning to any core work following your tummy tuck.Always seek out the opinion of a surgeon certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery with years of experience in tummy tucks and liposuction. Furthermore request to see before and after photos of previous patients by that doctor....not a clinic or surgery center. Do your homework......research and verify the doctor's credentials. Have they had problems with the Board of Medicine, disciplinary or otherwise. Any law suits? How about the center, clinic or facility? Are they accredited by a national organization or do they just have State approval. Understand that at the current time, there are three nationally recognized organizations responsible for the highest levels of patient safety, AAAASF, AAACH and JCHO. You owe it to yourself to position yourself for the best possible results but under the most stringent safety regulations, If you have kids, even more so.How about anesthesia? Will you have a medical doctor certified by the American Board of Anesthesiology or a certified nurse anesthetist (CRNA)? Understand that there is no substitute for research. Cosmetic surgery, no matter how simple it may be to the patients, are invasive procedures and as such carry certain risks and complications.In our office we use TouchMD which is a web based program in which patients have the ability to load their picture unto the program. I then evaluate them and can actually draw on the picture to show a potential patient where the incisions would be located and how the procedure is to be realized. It's all done to comply with HIPPA which is the federal law that protects the patient's medical information. Look them up.Give yourself the highest percentage of a sucssesful operation. Good luck

Answer: Liposuction has no effect on muscle mass Liposuction reduces localized areas of fat that are disproportionate to the overall body fat distribution. Reducing these areas will have no effect on muscle mass.
