Liposuction: the solution for a slimmer figure

Liposuction (also known as liposuction or liposculpture) is a cosmetic surgery procedure that has completely changed the face of body contouring. It permanently eliminates localized fatty deposits that resist a balanced diet and physical activity. If you’re at a stable weight and struggling with those stubborn areas, liposuction could be your ally.

The benefits of liposuction

Surgical precision for customized results: liposuction targets the specific areas of your body where fat is stored, delivering precise, personalized results. – A significant transformation of your appearance and silhouette: liposuction can dramatically improve your silhouette, eliminating unwanted fat deposits and sculpting your body. – Permanent elimination of fat cells: unlike traditional weight loss, liposuction eliminates fat cells permanently, which means they won’t return. – Improved self-confidence: by improving your appearance, liposuction can also boost your self-confidence, enabling you to feel more comfortable in your own body. Before you embark, it’s crucial to achieve an ideal weight and lead a healthy lifestyle to maximize results and minimize risks. At Claris Clinic, our plastic surgeons assess each patient individually to ensure the appropriateness of liposuction and provide personalized advice.

Weight loss: a natural process with its limits

Traditional weight loss, achieved through a healthy diet and regular exercise, is a natural process for reducing overall body weight. However, it does not specifically target areas of stubborn fat. The weight loss process: when you lose weight by conventional means, fat cells don’t disappear; they simply reduce in size. However, these cells can regain volume if you regain weight, which can make conventional weight loss less effective in the long term. Limitations of weight loss: traditional weight loss can lead to volume loss and sagging skin, altering the silhouette and overall appearance. What’s more, unlike liposuction, weight loss does not always eliminate certain “resistant” areas of fat (love handles, external belly fat, etc.).

Liposuction and weight loss: a winning combination

Liposuction and traditional weight loss are two distinct strategies for achieving your aesthetic and wellness goals. Understanding their differences and how they can complement each other is essential. Liposuction vs. traditional weight loss: liposuction targets stubborn fat deposits in specific areas, offering significant aesthetic enhancement and improved self-confidence. In contrast, traditional weight loss focuses on an overall reduction in body weight through healthy eating, exercise and a balanced lifestyle. The synergy between liposuction and weight loss: liposuction can be an excellent complement to successful weight loss. Once you’ve reached your ideal weight, but still have areas that are resistant to diet and exercise, liposuction can be considered to remove this stubborn fat. This helps to achieve a more harmonious silhouette and improve overall weight loss results. However, it is important to stress that liposuction does not replace the need for a healthy diet and regular exercise to maintain overall good health. Adopting a healthy lifestyle after liposuction is essential to preserve the results achieved and promote a better quality of life.
