Liposuction – Pasadena

Many people have at least one area of their body that seems particularly resistant to traditional weight loss methods like diet and exercise. While a healthy diet and exercise regime are an important part of a healthy lifestyle as well as maintaining a fit body, there are some limitations to what can be achieved.

Our overall body shape is largely determined by genetics and we are pre-engineered to gain and hold on to weight in specific parts of our bodies. Some people seem to only gain weight in all the “right” places, while many of the rest of us struggle to put weight on where we want it and get it off where we don’t. For these people with specific trouble zones that have failed to respond to diet and exercise, Liposuction can be a great option for finally achieving the results desired.

Liposuction is not, however, a treatment for obesity or a weight loss solution. Ideal Liposuction patients are at a healthy, stable weight, are in good health and have realistic expectations.

Everyone has pre-determined trouble areas, for some of us it’s our abdomen, for other hips, thighs or knees or the arms. Liposuction can easily treat each of these areas and more. In fact, liposuction can pretty much be used anywhere on the body.

You will want to consult with a skilled board certified plastic surgeon to determine if you are a good candidate for this procedure.
