About liposuction to lose weight, the common misunderstandings are as follows:
Myth 1: Liposuction hurts.
Truth: Liposuction will be performed under anesthesia. There is basically no pain during the operation, but there will be some pain after the operation, which is intermittent and generally tolerable. If it is really unbearable, you can ask a doctor to prescribe some painkillers, but don't take them privately.
Myth 2: Fat can be sucked anywhere.
Truth: In the human body, about three quarters of the fat is distributed under the skin, and the other quarter is distributed beside body cavities and organs. Liposuction is mainly to reduce the local content of subcutaneous fat, rather than to extract the fat next to the cavity organs. The common parts of liposuction are cheeks, back, upper arm, waist and abdomen, buttocks, thighs and calves.
Myth 3: Anyone can get liposuction.
Truth:/kloc-People under 0/8 years old are in the developmental stage, and liposuction will interfere with their normal fat development. After 55 years old, people's skin elasticity is poor, which is not conducive to postoperative recovery and is not suitable for liposuction. In addition, women with systemic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, coagulation dysfunction, or in menstrual period and pregnancy, are not suitable for liposuction.
Myth 4: It is easy to rebound after liposuction.
Truth: The number of adult fat cells remains the same, and the reason why they are fat is that the cell volume increases. Liposuction can reduce the number of fat cells, so as long as you don't overeat and exercise properly after surgery, you will generally not rebound.
Myth 5: The more liposuction, the better.
Truth: liposuction is not as easy as pumping water, and the amount of liposuction should be determined according to your own situation. You can't smoke where you shouldn't. You can smoke as much as you want, and you can't smoke endlessly. Because of the increase in liposuction, the risk of surgery is relatively high, and the requirements for doctors' skills, anesthesia level and surgical equipment are also higher.
