In this clip we'll talk about further after care and results to be expected from liposuction.
If a patient has been properly selected, they should see very satisfactory and nice results
from liposuction. Typically, it's not a matter of "Well I lost ten pounds from liposuction,"
but hopefully you've lost a little bit of weight on your own, stimulated by the liposuction.
What happens is that people will say that their clothes fit them a little smaller. Perhaps
their waist size has gone down a little bit or they're in a smaller dress size, and these
are the type of compliments that you like to hear and the life changing positive factors,
that people that are properly selected for liposuction, can experience. Liposuction is
a very safe procedure with potentially very dramatic changes in people's shape. If, however,
there are unexpected consequences, such as gaining weight, people that gain a lot of
weight after liposuction, the fat can go to other areas of the body. This is something
that patients will ask about, a lot. It's not that common, it's usually associated with
gaining a lot of weight after surgery, which is an unfortunate consequence that people
need to try to avoid.
