Can liposuction help slim down the belly

Liposuction can help slim down the belly, but it mainly targets subcutaneous fat accumulation and has no significant effect on visceral fat. Liposuction removes local fat cells through physical means, suitable for individuals with relatively stable body weight but stubborn local fat. Liposuction surgery involves inserting a suction tube through a small incision and using negative pressure suction technology to directly reduce the number of subcutaneous fat cells in the abdomen. postoperative adipocytes are non renewable and the effect is long-lasting. However, it should be noted that temporary sagging of the abdominal skin may occur after liposuction, and it is necessary to wear shapewear and exercise appropriately to help the skin retract. 1-3 months after surgery is the recovery period, during which swelling, bruising, and other reactions may occur, and vigorous exercise should be avoided. Liposuction cannot improve abdominal distension caused by excessive visceral fat, which requires dietary control and aerobic exercise to reduce fat. Obese individuals, those with poor skin elasticity, and those with coagulation dysfunction are not suitable for liposuction surgery. If healthy lifestyle habits are not maintained after surgery, the remaining fat cells may still increase in volume, leading to weight gain.

It is recommended to undergo professional evaluation before surgery and choose a reputable medical institution for operation. After surgery, it is necessary to maintain a balanced diet, consume high-quality protein and vitamins in moderation to promote healing, and avoid high sugar and high-fat diets. Combining core muscle training can enhance the sense of abdominal line, and doing 3-5 aerobic exercises per week can help maintain overall body fat percentage. The weight change after liposuction may not be significant, and body circumference measurement should be the main indicator for evaluating the effect.
