People don't know the difference between
liposuction and liposculpture.
00:00:12.845 --> 00:00:20.540
Liposuction is the act of removing the fat
tissue from the body and liposculpture is
00:00:20.565 --> 00:00:25.020
the result we want to give to the patient.
00:00:25.045 --> 00:00:30.820
The most common body areas treated
with liposculpture is mainly
00:00:30.845 --> 00:00:36.640
the abdomen, the abdominal area, the
waist, and the back, the
00:00:36.665 --> 00:00:38.560
upper and lower back.
00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.480
All liposculptures depends on
the retraction of the skin.
00:00:43.680 --> 00:00:47.780
If the patient don't have good
quality of skin and
00:00:47.805 --> 00:00:53.580
that skin doesn't retract,
the result is not going to be the optimal.
00:00:53.605 --> 00:01:00.260
For example, in women after pregnancies,
the skin has already been stretched,
00:01:00.285 --> 00:01:05.720
and it's very difficult that that skin,
after the removal of that fat tissue,
00:01:05.745 --> 00:01:10.700
retracts enough to give a good body shape.
00:01:10.725 --> 00:01:16.240
Sometimes the patient needs to lose
weight to offer them a good result.
00:01:16.920 --> 00:01:23.180
When you go with a plastic surgeon,
the plastic surgeon must see
00:01:23.205 --> 00:01:31.700
all the weight, the age, the
habits of the patient to see if the
00:01:31.725 --> 00:01:35.640
result is going to be the best or not.
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:41.040
If you're not in your
in a good weight for your height, the
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:44.720
result is not going to be the optimal.
00:01:45.520 --> 00:01:51.820
The best time to do aesthetic procedure
is when you are in your ideal weight.
00:01:51.845 --> 00:01:55.720
If you don't have healthy habits after the
procedure, you're going to gain weight
00:01:55.745 --> 00:02:01.850
again and that weight is not going to
distribute in
00:02:01.880 --> 00:02:03.840
the same way as before the surgery.
