Good Candidates for Liposuctionin Rockford, IL

You hear about liposuction all the time. It seems like the perfect solution. All you need to do is come in for a short surgical procedure that isn't too invasive. A few small incisions and your fat can be suctioned away. You can finally say goodbye to that pesky fat that has been hanging around for too long to have the figure that you have always wanted. It sounds great, but you need to make sure you are a good candidate before you schedule your procedure. We encourage you to find out if liposuction is right for you.
You're Healthy
Our plastic surgeon is not going to perform surgery if your health is at risk. You should be in good health and a non-smoker to avoid complications. If you do smoke, you will be advised to stop for at least a few weeks before your procedure. If you have underlying conditions, our plastic surgeon is going to look at your medical history and determine if liposuction is the best choice for you.
You've Reached Your Ideal Weight
Liposuction is not a magic fix for losing weight. If you have to lose a considerable amount of weight, you will need to find a diet and exercise plan that works for you. Liposuction is intended for that resistant fat that hangs on in trouble spots, like your upper arms, your buttocks, your thighs and your stomach. If you've tried everything and you still have stubborn pockets of fat hanging on, liposuction could be the answer.
You're Not Pregnant
If you are pregnant, your body is going to go through many changes. You need to wait until your pregnancy is over and you have reached your goal weight before you undergo liposuction.
You Want to Enhance Your Figure
If you have tried all kinds of exercise routines and diet plans to sculpt your body, it can be really frustrating when it doesn't work. Otherwise, you may feel that liposuction is the best way to hone your body, giving you the shape you have always wanted.
