Liposuction is a procedure that revolutionized cosmetic surgery and became one of the most popular. It can be done in almost all regions of the body like the neck, chin, abdomen, back, buttocks, thighs and arms.

It consists of making a few small incisions through which a cannula sucking fat located in this case is inserted in the abdomen. This adipose tissue is injected elsewhere to give harmony and get a slimmer figure.

Bruising and swelling are completely normal and can last from 3 to 6 months after surgery.

Remember to make the lymphatic drainage massage to improve sweeling and remove liquids , this will help for a soon recovery, however every patient has a diffrent evolution. In addition, you should wear a comprhesion garment continuously to prevent seroma, which is a buildup of fluid and it could be painful.

To maintain the results of liposuction, it is very important to perform physical activity and lead a balanced nutrition regimen. However, there are those who consider that liposuction is the best way to have "a perfect body" without exercise or a healthy diet.

Is found that the effects of liposuction may be lost for several reasons; the human body is born with a certain number of fat cells, these cells do increase your size causing an effect called hypertrophy, in case that the person take a bad diet, suffers from a dysfunctional metabolism or sedentary.

Liposuction is not a procedure for weight loss, liposuction improves the abdominal contour by removing fatty deposits and after a surgery like this, in some cases it is possible to gain weight again.

So I recommend to my patients start to change eating habits and exercise constantly; many women dream of having the perfect body through surgery, but the reality is that although these procedures will help to improve your physical appearance, who is solely responsible for maintaining the results each patient, eating healthily and including physical activity, otherwise it is possible that the financial investment is lost.

Liposuction is the surgical procedure responsible for eliminating excess accumulated fat in areas of the body such as the abdomen, thighs, buttocks waist and face. One of the keys to weight maintenance after body surgery, is to control caloric intake through a well balanced diet that provides the necessary nutrients such as:

1. lean protein: salmon, white meat (chicken, fish, fresh water and Turkey).

2. whole grains: Brown rice and oatmeal.

3. plants of green leaves that provide different amounts of nutrients such as calcium, iron and fiber.

4. nuts: almonds, walnuts and hazelnuts.
