F<\/span>or more than 30 years, liposuction has been among the most popular aesthetic surgical techniques, and it has enabled millions of patients to achieve more sculpted curves. At Jack & Jill Aesthetics\u00a0in Franklin, TN, we use the tumescent liposuction technique, which facilitates safer, more effective treatment.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What liposuction can (and can\u2019t) treat<\/h2>\n

It is important to have realistic expectations. Liposuction<\/a> is a wonderful procedure for reducing localized fat deposits virtually anywhere on the body. However, it is not a treatment for obesity or a substitute for healthy habits. The goal of this treatment is fat removal, rather than weight loss. While they might sound like the same thing, there are significant differences.<\/p>\n

When you cut calories and carbs your body is forced to use stored fat as fuel. Fat cells remain intact, and their distribution remains the same, but individual cells become smaller. Your overall body size becomes smaller, but problematic pockets of fat usually remain in place.<\/p>\n

Liposuction does not shrink fat cells. Instead, it literally suctions them out of the treatment area. Because adults rarely develop new fat cells, this alters the distribution of body fat. Although your fat rolls might seem large when you look in the mirror, they actually comprise a small percentage of your whole-body weight. Because liposuction selectively targets those problem areas, the total volume of fat removed is often just a few pounds.<\/p>\n

The simplest way to understand the difference is that weight loss is about re-sizing your body, while liposuction is about re-shaping your body. It can be used to treat stubborn fat virtually anywhere. The most common treatment areas include under the chin, on the arms or shoulders, on the legs, around the abdomen, or on the back.<\/p>\n
