Hi, Dr. Steven Davis at Davis Cosmetic Plastic Surgery. One of the things that we very very rarely get a chance to talk about is the benefits of doing liposuctioning on someone that’s really looking to continue to lose weight. And I wanted to take a few minutes just to talk about that.
You know, when we’re thinking about globally of how our body is kind of constructed, we have bones, we have muscle, and we have fat. And when you go on a diet a lot of times, people lose a little bit of muscle mass.
They lose a little bit of bony mass and they lose a bit of fat. But when you have liposuctioning, the only thing that we’re really doing is removing pure fat from your body, so your muscle mass stays the same; your bony mass stays the same.
And the beauty of that is that you still need the energy, the metabolism to move all of your muscle around, to move all your bones all around, and you’re doing that now with less body fat because I just finished liposucking you.
So where this comes into play is that your metabolism, for about a month to three to four months after the liposuctioning, your body doesn’t really know what happened.
All it knows is it’s still trying to move the same amount of muscle; it’s still trying to move the same amount of bones, but you don’t have the same amount of fatty stores that you were using in order to metabolize the energy to move yourself around.
So what all this actually means is that your metabolism will start to race quicker over the first month to three months after liposuctioning.
And the beauty of that is if you’re watching what you’re eating, and you’re exercising, you’re gonna be able to lose weight faster than you’ve ever been able to lose before for about three months. And then magically, your body kinda recalibrates and understands what you did to try to fool it.
So just remember, the benefits of liposuctioning aside from just getting your girth to come down and fitting into like smaller clothing and looking better is it’s actually gonna help your metabolism. And if you are looking to lose weight, that’s how you can go about doing it.
