What a big misunderstanding! Liposuction does not mean weight loss

Text/Qiu Zhenghong (Plastic Surgeon)

Liposuction ≠ weight loss

Once the fat cells in our body are formed, they will always exist; if we rely on dieting or exercise to reduce the total calorie intake, at most it will only shrink the size of these fat cells, but it will not make them disappear. Therefore, once you succeed in losing weight, but your eating habits return to their previous out-of-control state, your fat cells will enlarge and you will gain weight again. However, liposuction really makes fat cells disappear, but it does not mean losing weight!

Many girls who suffer from local obesity have seen their figures suddenly improve after having their stubborn fat removed or dissolved. However, because they see their legs become thinner and their stomachs become smaller, they are so happy that they start to eat without restraint. Finished! She started to gain weight. Moreover, a problem will arise at this time: the places where the stubborn fat disappears will not get fatter, but the places where the fat is not dissolved will get fatter due to excessive diet, and as a result, the proportions become very strange.

For example: After lipolysis surgery, the thighs become thinner and it is not easy to gain weight again; however, if you continue to eat and drink too much, if the fat accumulates in the calves, the thighs will become thin and the calves will become thick. Or, your upper abdomen has become smaller due to liposuction, but your lower abdomen starts to gain weight after overeating. Isn’t that even uglier?

Therefore, liposuction cannot be used as a way to reduce or slim down. Using it to beautify your body curves will definitely not disappoint you!

Dr. Qiu's Tips

Liposuction or lipolysis is mostly used to improve local curves and eliminate stubborn fat, and it does not mean whole-body weight loss or slimming. Don’t let your guard down just because your body becomes perfect after surgery, you still need to maintain the results.

TIPS: Jeremy Lin and Lien Shengwen are the same height and weight. Do you believe it?

Through exercise, muscles will become stronger and heavier, so if you ask: "I have an exercise habit and run every day, why can't I lose weight?" It's because you gain weight through muscle, not fat.

If we look at the ratio of height to weight, those bodybuilders are too fat! But he is not fat, he is more muscular. The unit volume of muscle is much heavier than that of fat; therefore, people who are exercising will not be able to lose weight.

Two people of the same height and weight, if one has the habit of exercising and is heavier than muscles, his health will definitely be better than the other who has no habit of exercising and is heavier than fat.

Everything you know about plastic surgery is wrong!

I can’t lose weight no matter what I do, so I might as well go for liposuction, and lose at least 10KG! The most feared thing about lipolysis or liposuction is that patients have this idea: many people think that since they can't lose weight all over their body, they might as well have liposuction or lipolysis and lose a few kilograms in one go. This idea is wrong! Because fat itself is not actually heavy, its function is to store calories, so it has no weight. Therefore, your weight will not drop too much after liposuction. If you really want to lose weight, you must rely on losing weight all over your body.

Perhaps you will ask: "But isn't it because of fat that people become fat?" People become fat not just because of fat, but also because of the weight of other tissues. As you gain weight, your muscles must also increase in volume to maintain your weight; as you gain weight, the intercellular spaces, lymph fluid, and tissue fluid will also increase, and the weight of these things themselves is heavier than oil, because water is heavier than oil! You can see that the oil floats on the water.

Therefore, what you should care about is not your weight, but whether your body shape is perfect and whether your fat ratio is too high.
