5 Reasons to Consider Liposuction

If you’re considering liposuction, you have plenty of company. Doctors perform some 325,000 liposuction treatments in the United States each year, making it the third-most popular cosmetic surgery.

The procedure suctions out excess fat in targeted areas, such as your chest, thighs, upper arms, abdomen, and back, to give you a look you’re more comfortable with.

At BP Royal Medspa in Henderson, Nevada, registered nurse Barbara Rodriguez and her expert team provide tailored liposuction treatment using advanced technology to contour your body to your liking.

Here are five popular reasons you may want to consider this treatment.

1. You want a sleeker appearance

Many people choose liposuction for increased slimness. While liposuction isn’t a weight loss solution, it can give you a trimmer and sleeker physique. On average, liposuction extracts about 4.5 pounds of fat per treatment.

2. You’re bothered by pockets of fat

You may be a candidate for liposuction if you’re within or close to your ideal weight range. Given that certain types of fat, such as abdominal fat, can be quite stubborn, you may not be able to minimize it through lifestyle changes alone. Liposuction provides fat loss for those bothersome places. 

3. You want better-defined abs

Not everyone can develop a six-pack through weight training or sit-ups. Genetics play a significant role in the way your muscles appear, too. 

Liposuction can provide liposculpture, also known as abdominal etching, to do away with undesired fat in your midsection. Using special contouring techniques, your provider can create a more chiseled aesthetic. 

4. You miss your pre-pregnancy physique

It’s natural for your body to change after pregnancy. If you’re not thrilled with your new look, liposuction can contour areas of your body to bring it closer to the physique you miss.

In general, you should wait at least six months after pregnancy before having plastic surgery, liposuction included. This allows your body time to settle into its natural post-pregnancy shape.

5. Your confidence could use a boost

While liposuction won’t “fix” or “heal” deep-seated psychological challenges, it can give you a refreshing confidence boost. 

Cosmetic procedures usually involve a thoughtful decision that results from years of body dissatisfaction. When a procedure such as liposuction is complete, most people report feeling satisfied with the results and more confident about their appearance. 

You might even notice less anxiety and depression and an overall boost in your quality of life after your treatment.
