Myth 1# Liposuction Is About Weight Loss
Fact: Liposuction, also known simply as LIPO, is often considered a weight-loss surgery. It is the most common misconception and should be explained to the patient.
Liposuction should not be your first choice if you are trying to lose weight. You need to change your diet, exercise routine, or undergo weight loss surgery. After you have reached the weight you desire, you can consider liposuction.
Once you have reached your ideal weight, liposuction is the finishing touch. After you have lost significant weight, it can be used to remove stubborn fat deposits.
Myth 2# Liposuction Isn’t A Surgery
Fact: Liposuction can be performed as a day-care procedure, or the patient may need to remain in hospital for an overnight stay. After basic blood tests, the patient is admitted to the hospital and then operated in a Major Operation Theater under general anesthesia. Sedation is only available where there is a proper general-anesthesia facility. The procedure is completed by the surgeon making small incisions around the liposuction area. This should not be performed as an Outpatient procedure.
Myth 3# Dermatologist Are The Best Doctors For Liposuction
Fact: Liposuction can be performed only by a Board Certified Plastic Surgery. There are risks involved in this surgery and a plastic surgeon is the best person for the job. Unqualified doctors may claim to perform liposuction. Please be cautious.
Myth 4# Fat-Dissolving Injections That Give Similar Results To Liposuction
Fact: Fat-dissolving injections can cause lipolysis (the breakdown of fat cells), while Liposuction removes fat cells from the body. FDA has not approved fat dissolving injectables and they are not safe for patients. If the treating doctor claims that this treatment has been approved by FDA, please send him written documentation.
Myth 5# Liposuction Isn’t For Women
Fact: Liposuction can be performed on both men and women. This procedure is becoming more popular with men. Most men use liposuction for removing fat around the stomach, breasts, thighs and love handles.
Myth 6# The Foat Will Return Somewhere Else
Fact: Liposuction can be used to remove fat cells. However, if the patient does not maintain a healthy lifestyle and eat well, the results will not last as long. Although liposuction can be used to get back in shape, it is not a permanent solution. It is up to the patient to maintain that shape.
Myth 7# Instant Result Post Liposuction
Fact: After liposuction, the body needs to recover from its previous state. It takes time for the swelling and bruising from liposuction to heal. The best results can be seen within 3-6 months.
Myth8# It Rinses Cellulite And Sagging Skiin
Fact: Liposuction doesn’t remove cellulite. It just removes deep under-skin fat. If there is excess skin, it will need to be removed. However, it won’t cost extra incisions.
Myth9# It Is A Substance For Diet Or Exercise
Fact: Diet and exercise are the only way to stay healthy and lose weight. Surgeons recommend that patients maintain a healthy weight and follow a regular exercise program before they undergo surgery.
