There are many people unhappy with the way they look, and therefore many that may be looking at the route of liposuction in order to improve their appearance. Persistent excess fatty deposits can be a real nuisance for some, and knowing that you are a good candidate for liposuction will help you to achieve the desired results.
Liposuction – The Requirements
In order to undergo the liposuction procedure, it goes without saying that you need to be in good health. This is not an option for those who require instant and drastic weight loss, and ideally you need to be within 25lbs of your ideal weight before you will be considered for liposuction surgery. This type of cosmetic procedure is for those who suffer with persistent fatty areas, not those who require weight loss, so making sure you understand the difference is important if you are considering liposuction.
You also need a certain level of motivation in order to get rid of your problem areas. Liposuction is not to be thought of as “the convenient route” and should only be considered if diet and exercise has not resulted in any lasting difference being made to the localised areas of fat you are concerned about.
It is also important that you have not had any previous surgery on the area you are considering for liposuction.
Liposuction – The Real Meaning
Knowing if you are the best candidate for liposuction should result in your desire to be “reshaped” rather than lose a lot of weight. Reshaping is the key with liposuction, and it is this understanding that will help make the procedure much more successful.
Liposuction – The Psychological Impact
Making sure you are psychologically stable is also of great importance when considering liposuction surgery. You should not be bullied into it, nor should you feel that you “have to do it” because there is no other option. Opting for liposuction is a personal decision and it is also one that requires a certain degree of mental stability in order to go through with the surgery.
I couldn't agree more with what you have said. Most people who do not want to change their lifestyle but want to get rid of their body fat think liposuction is the best solution. Little do they know that to achieve and maintain their desired body, they have to make changes in their habits too. For example, they need to start eating healthily and engage in physical activities to keep the slimmer body they’ve achieved through liposuction.

@Marc: Well, a lot of people have this perception that once you go through liposuction, you will be getting the gorgeous, sexy body that you always wanted. What they didn’t know is that you have to help yourself as well. After the procedure, it is your turn to put in the effort and maintain a healthy lifestyle. There’s a huge chance that you’ll go back to your old shape if you do not maintain a hale and hearty way of life.

“Liposuction is not to be thought of as “the convenient route”- True. For me, I would only go through a liposuction surgery only if all my possible options to lose my weight fail to work. Before I go through with it, I want to do my best first so that I can tell myself that at least I really tried. ;)
