Liposuction is a well-known cosmetic procedure that has a lot of buzz surrounding it. A common misconception is that liposuction is for obese people as a method for weight loss. Liposuction is a procedure that redistributes where fat sits on the body and removes stubborn cells. In this blog we outline who makes an ideal candidate for liposuction with Dr Gordon Padovan at Timeless Cosmetics.

 

  • Fit & Healthy

 

A fit person that eats healthily and has proven their ability to maintain weight is an ideal candidate for liposuction. Although people that are above a healthy weight can have liposuction, the results won’t be as pronounced and it is important to remember that it isn’t to be used for fat reduction.

 

  • Stubborn Fat

 

Stubborn fat that causes bulges in unwanted spots make someone an ideal candidate for liposuction. What is known as “diet-resistant fat” – no matter how healthily you eat or how much time you spend in the gym it won’t shift – is what liposuction was designed for.

 

  • Tight, Firm Skin

 

People with little to no excess skin and a good skin elasticity are perfect for liposuction. Results from people with firm and elastic skin are greater as the skin adjusts to the body better post-liposuction than inelastic skin. Loose or inelastic skin can result in the skin creping or becoming wrinkly following the procedure.

 

  • Disproportionate Fat Distribution

 

People that have disproportionate fat distribution can have this issue resolved with liposuction. Liposuction permanently removes fat cells meaning that if weight is gained down the track it will be gained more proportionately.
