Question:
Is liposuction an alternative to exercise and a healthy diet?
Answer:
No. Liposuction is neither a cure for obesity, nor a substitute for exercising or maintaining a healthy diet. Liposuction is a procedure for removal of the excess fat deposits that will not go away through regular exercise. Most surgeons will therefore also prefer to carry out liposuction on patients of standard weight, or patients who are only slightly overweight.
