Fat is an essential hazard of modern lifestyle. Long working hours at the desk, dependence on fast food and fizzy drinks and no time for exercising have become the realities of life today. At the same time the need to be healthy and fit is more than ever before. So how does one balance such conflicting needs and facts.

Healthy balanced diet and regular moderate exercising are the cornerstones of fitness. Easy as it is to gain several kilos it is often impossible to get back to shape with diet and exercise alone , even when continued for a long time. People are genetically programmed to accumulate excess fat in certain areas which also runs in families. Most commonly the fat is around the belly, but in other people disproportiate amount of fat can be on thighs, buttocks and even arms. Even when the person is otherwise not fat the bulging belly and heavy thighs can happen and restrict one?s choice of clothes. These abnormal fat deposits are notoriously resistant to any methods of weight loss. Most of the times person turns to liposuction after trying all methods that do not work.

Liposuction is the most popular plastic surgical procedure which works by sucking out the excess fat from the specific areas, with the help of slender metallic tubes. There are no external scars or stitches. The procedure is done under local or general anaesthesia depending on the amount of fat. Person can walk and go home the same evening. When performed by experienced team it is a safe procedure. Since the fat cells that are the storehouse of fat are removed from the body, person loses the tendency to reaccumulate the fat in that area. In other words, fat loss is permanent if person maintains a healthy lifestyle.
