Liposuction is a procedure that gives a more shaped appearance by removing stubborn fat accumulated in certain parts of the body. However, many people wonder whether they will gain weight after liposuction. Here is what you need to know about this issue:
Are Fat Cells Permanently Removed with Liposuction?
Yes, the fat cells removed during liposuction are permanently removed. The body does not produce new fat cells during adulthood, so the number of fat cells in the treated areas decreases. However, the remaining fat cells can grow.
Weight Gain and Fat Distribution
If an unhealthy diet and a sedentary lifestyle are adopted after liposuction, the body can grow the remaining fat cells. However, weight gain is usually observed in different areas, not in the areas where liposuction was performed.
Ways to Maintain Form After Liposuction
- Develop balanced and healthy eating habits.
- Keep your metabolism active with regular exercise.
- Detoxify your body by drinking plenty of water.
As a result, although fat cells are permanently removed with liposuction, an unhealthy lifestyle can lead to weight gain. Therefore, it is important to maintain healthy living habits after the procedure.
