“Is it easier to lose weight after liposuction?”
I am a 29 year old female. I want to know if it is easier to lose weight after liposuction?

No - - it is never easy to lose weight --- and lipo is not for weight loss
Having liposuction will not change the ability nor the ease of losing weight.
Thank you for the question.
This has been asked many times. The counter question would be, “What is the whole area that requires liposuction?” Liposuction usually is used for localized areas. However, there are some professionals that will do mega liposuctions. Liposuction is not a procedure for weight loss Rather, it is to remodel the areas where fat has greater accumulation in the body greater. From a psychological standpoint, the new image in the mirror, after liposuction, boosts the self esteem, helping the person to do the right things that lead to further weight loss. Hope that this helps.

It could give you the circumstances to deal with the weight. However, it is better to lose the weight by being careful with choices and amounts. If you elect suction, be very careful.
Liposuction is only a way to contour troublesome fatty deposits. It is never a short cut to weight loss. It does not alter your ability to gain or lose weight.
