If you have stubborn fat in your hips, thighs, or abdomen, you are not alone. Different body types store fat differently. Be patient and kind to yourself and your body. At the same time, optimize the different options available and do not trivialize the need to get rid of this fat.

One option for dealing with stubborn fat is laser liposuction. This procedure is not aimed at helping you lose weight. It targets pockets of stubborn fat that will not go away even after diets, exercise, and a change of lifestyle.

START WITH A CHANGE OF LIFESTYLE

Bad habits forming your lifestyle contribute to gaining excess fat. Although this is true, it could also be a result of genetics and pregnancy. With time, aging also affects how your body stores fat. Lifestyle needs to be intentionally worked on, changing bad habits that cause excess fat.

HABITS TO CHANGE

• Consuming too many sweetened drinks, carbohydrates, sugars, and bad fats. Instead, drink water, eat fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins.

• Eating too much food. Instead, limit your portions. 

• Overindulgence in smoking and drinking. Cut down or even quit these habits.

• Worry that causes stress. When stressed, you can practice yoga, meditation, or exercise. If you are not able to work on it, seek professional help. Humans are social beings, so always ensure you have a good support system around you.

• A sedentary or inactive lifestyle. Start exercising and find the right exercises for you. Walking, swimming or even active hobbies like gardening will help burn that fat.

• Staying up at night. Ensure you get enough sleep. Also, go to bed at the same time every night.

RISKS OF EXCESS FAT

There are serious risks associated with having excess fat in your body. This fat accumulates under your abdominal muscles and vital organs. The most dangerous kind is the fat around your organs in the abdomen, also known as visceral fat. It raises your risk of developing serious medical issues.

These include heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and even Alzheimer’s. Getting rid of visceral fat may be difficult with dieting and exercise, but laser liposuction targets and deals with it.

LASER LIPOSUCTION TREATMENT

This is a great body shaping and fat-reducing procedure. It is ideal for anyone within 10 to 25 pounds of their ideal healthy body weight. The surgeon begins by making a small incision that becomes the laser’s point of entry. Then with incredible precision, the surgeon targets and liquefies stubborn fat cells with the laser. They then use a tube to suck away all the liquified fat.

When combined with exercise, the results are amazing. It causes stubborn fat cells to shrink completely. Sticking to a healthy lifestyle complements this procedure and ensures the results last longer.

ADVANTAGES OF LASER LIPOSUCTION

The procedure is less invasive than traditional liposuction and has no downtime. Thus, the preferred anesthetic is local as opposed to general. Other advantages of laser liposuction are:

• It leaves your nerves and vessels intact.

• It has minimal scarring, bruising, swelling, and pain.

• It has a faster recovery period.
