We all know how difficult it is to get rid of love handles and muffin tops, even if you are in the best of health. If you are looking for a simple way to get rid of those extra bits of fat and have the toned, shapely, and contoured body you’ve always wanted, liposuction may be the answer for you!
What is liposuction?
In a liposuction procedure, a small tube is inserted into the body through tiny incisions and the fat is suctioned out. Your doctor will place the tube in just the right places to remove fat deposits. Here are some other things you should know about liposuction:
1. You should be in good overall health for this procedure.
2. Liposuction can be used not only on the abdomen but also the hips, back, knees, arms, thighs, buttocks, face, and neck.
3. It is an outpatient procedure, which means you don’t have to stay in the hospital overnight.
4. It is performed using local anesthesia or intravenous sedation. You may feel a pinching sensation at the beginning of the procedure, but after that you should feel no pain at all.
5. You will probably have some bruising in the area for about 2 weeks. You may need pain medication for a few days after the procedure.
6. You will be given a compression garment to wear after the procedure.
7. You should limit your exercise for about 2 weeks after the procedure, but after those 2 weeks you can return to your regular activities.
8. It can take 3 to 6 months to see the final results of liposuction, although you will start to notice results at about 6 weeks afterward.
9. Liposuction removes fat cells permanently, but you can always regain weight! Make sure that you eat a healthy diet (with lots of low-fat dairy, fruits, veggies, and whole grains) and get lots of exercise!

A new year means new resolutions that, let’s face it, more likely than not usually surround the idea of losing a few pounds before the beginning of the new year. However, for a lot of patients— especially those who are middle-aged and older— losing weight can be a lot more difficult. As we age, our metabolism not only slows down but our body starts to store fat more which makes losing weight a lot more difficult than it was in your twenties. If you want to lose all of the weight in 2018, Dr. Gary J. Price has the perfect solution. Let’s take a closer look.
Weight loss is a great thing, but the traditional methods of losing weight, diet and exercise, do not always eliminate pockets of fat in certain areas of the body such as the thighs, abdomen, and upper arms. It can be frustrating to have worked hard to lose the weight only to not be able to get at these stubborn pockets of remaining fat.
