Post Surgical Weight Loss Management
Can I Gain The Weight Back After Liposuction?
While liposuction is an excellent way to reduce excess body fat in specific areas, the removal of certain fat cells is by no means a guarantee against weight gain. Adults have a fixed number of fat cells in their bodies, so the fat cells that are removed during liposuction will not regenerate. However, if patients do not observe a healthy diet and exercise routine after liposuction, the remaining fat cells can still grow and contribute to weight gain. Patients may also find that, if they do not make alterations to their exercise and diet routines after liposuction, they are more apt to gain weight in areas of their bodies that were not previously problematic, where the fat cells were left unaltered by their procedure. The most successful and satisfied patients are those who use their liposuction procedure as motivation to develop healthier eating and exercise habits.
How Soon Can I Exercise After Smartlipo™ laser assisted liposuction?
We encourage and want our patients to be active immediately after surgery. The sooner patients become active after surgery the lower the risk for post operative complications. Medical literature reflects the fact that patients who undergo awake local tumescence liposuction have the best and safest results after surgery. To even reduce your risks of postoperative complications you should be physically active immediately after surgery. All of our patients ambulate immediately and walk out of the office on their own.
Should I Follow A Diet After Liposuction?
Diet, weightless, and a regular exercise program is essential to longer and healthier living. If you gain weight after liposuction you can have the fat cells accumulate at the site of previous liposuction. If you become pregnant after you abdominal liposuction there is a high likelihood you will have fat come back as well as return of skin stretch marks.
