Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgeries performed in Australia, even more so than in the US. This may be due to the fact that the reason why so many people opt for liposuction is the near-immediate results it produces in removing unwanted body fat.
Everyone, both men and women, want their version of an ideal silhouette, and even people who are considered to be fit undergo liposuction to target the stubborn areas of fat that seem to be unaffected by exercise and diet.
The most frequently ask question we receive from patients is about the potential for fat to reappear after a liposuction procedure. Can it happen?
This is one example of the before and after effects of arm liposuction performed by Chelsea Cosmetics.
The Permanent Removal of Fat
First, let’s stress that liposuction is not a process for weight loss and should never be substituted for good diet and exercise. It’s not a free pass to eat anything you like then have it sucked out! Instead, liposuction should be looked at as a form of sculpting.
The various liposuction techniques will remove fat cells from a targeted area with the use of a cannula, which will suction out the stubborn fat. This process permanently removes fat cells from the body.
Will The Fat Reappear?
This is where people often get confused. Yes, fat can return, however not to the cells removed during the liposuction procedure. We strongly recommend a good diet and regular exercise to maintain the new body you have created with liposuction. If you gain a small amount of weight after the procedure, the existing fat cells in your body will get a little bigger somewhat diminishing the results of the liposuction.
It is important to note, however, that the overall body shape created by the liposuction procedure will still be evident. The area that you focused on with the liposuction procedure will have less fat cells than the untreated surrounding regions.
If you were to experience considerable weight gain, new fat cells could develop, including in the previously treated areas. It will, however, likely accumulate less in these spots.
