Pros and Cons of Liposuction
Cons of liposuction
1. Scarring
This kind of procedure may leave some scars. Although you can return to normal activities after couple of weeks, certain scars stay even after months of the procedure.
2. Sagging skin
Since excessive amount of fat is reduced from a specific spot, skin tends to sag and you will have to visit the gym anyway to get toned and get back into shape. Also, stretch marks are inevitable in this procedure and these could also increase later on.
3. Risk of infection
Risk of infection is imminent in this procedure. Liposuction is known to have caused anemia in certain cases. Anesthesia related issues have also been reported. Determining the right kind of anesthesia is important during surgery. Internal organ damage has been observed in many cases after liposuction.
4. Other health hazards
Abdominal hernia is cited as a common issue. So is the case with risk of developing gallstones.
Pros and cons of liposuction must be well analyzed before undergoing the procedure. Consider every other form of weight reduction prior to choosing an invasive procedure such as liposuction.
