Three Ways Liposuction Can Reshape Your Body

Liposuction is a well-known cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat from the abdomen, hips, thighs, and buttocks, resulting in a slimmer look. Though not a complete weight-loss solution, liposuction can greatly improve your appearance and confidence.

Below, Dr. Mark W. Stalder explores three ways liposuction can help reshape your body, including targeted fat removal, improved body proportions, and a better BMI. Call Stalder Plastic Surgery to book a liposuction consultation and discuss how you can achieve amazing results in New Orleans, LA.

1. Targeted fat removal

Even traditional diet and exercise can make it challenging to lose fat in specific areas. For example, you may not see big changes in your abdomen despite doing hours of crunches or sit-ups. Liposuction, on the other hand, allows us to target nearly any area using advanced tools and techniques.

During liposuction, Dr. Stalder makes a small incision and inserts a thin tube called a cannula. The fat is carefully loosened before being suctioned out. This process is repeated until the desired amount of fat is removed. Our patients often comment on how much better their body looks after undergoing liposuction.

2. Improved body proportions

Having a disproportionate body shape can make it difficult to find clothes that fit well. Liposuction, however, can help improve your overall proportions by removing excess fat in problematic areas. By contouring your body, liposuction can give you a more balanced and symmetrical appearance.

For example, liposuction can help if you have larger hips or thighs but smaller arms. This can not only enhance your physical appearance but also allow you to wear your favorite clothes with confidence. At Stalder Plastic Surgery, our team works closely with patients to determine the ideal areas to target for fat removal.

3. Better BMI

Body mass index (BMI) is a measurement of body fat based on height and weight. A high BMI is often associated with obesity and can increase the risk of problems such as heart disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. The good news is that liposuction can reduce overall body fat and lower your BMI to more desirable levels. During a consultation in New Orleans, LA, Dr. Stalder can discuss how this works.

Of course, patients should understand that liposuction is not a complete or total weight-loss solution. It's best used to remove stubborn pockets of fat that are resistant to other methods. Pairing liposuction with a healthy diet and exercise routine can yield optimal long-term results.
