Orange County Cosmetic Surgeon Discusses Tummy Tucks and Liposuction: When is Dieting and Exercise Not Enough?
Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) December 21, 2013 -- A well-balanced diet and regular exercise will definitely improve the health of any person, but it may not always improve their appearance. For many people in Newport Beach and throughout Orange County, cosmetic surgery procedures can help enhance their appearance and give them the improved body image that they have been seeking.
Dr. Kevin Sadati is an expert cosmetic surgeon who specializes in these procedures. He has developed a tip sheet for patients who are wondering if a tummy tuck or liposuction procedure is the right choice for them.
"An expert facial plastic surgeon can help sculpt a person's body so that it looks more toned, fit and ultimately healthier. While diet and exercise are beneficial in helping a person lose excess weight, the tummy tuck and liposuction procedures will truly give them the look that they want for themselves," explained Dr. Kevin Sadati.
How Do People Know if They are a Candidate for Liposuction?
A person who is considering liposuction should not be morbidly obese. Ideally, the best candidates for liposuction are within 30 percent of the bodyweight that they want to reach.
The best candidates for liposuction have firm skin that has not lost a significant amount of its elasticity. It is important to have good muscle tone as well when a patient is considering the liposuction procedure.
People who are considering liposuction should not smoke cigarettes. If they are currently smoking, they should make an effort to quit prior to having the procedure performed by a cosmetic surgeon.
In addition to being physically healthy, a person considering liposuction should also be mentally prepared for the operation. A positive outlook is especially important, and the patient should have realistic goals when it comes to the liposuction procedure.
How Do People Know if They are a Good Candidate for the Tummy Tuck?
The best candidates for the tummy tuck have attempted to lose weight through traditional methods, but are not pleased with appearance because of lack of muscle tone and sagging skin.
As this is a major surgical procedure, all candidates should be in good general health and able to withstand the surgery itself as well as the recovery period after the fact.
As with any other cosmetic surgery procedure, patients must have realistic expectations of what this surgery can achieve. The tummy tuck will help tone muscles in the abdominal area and remove excess skin, helping the patient to enjoy a firmer, more defined waist line.
"Many people find themselves frustrated when diet and exercise just don't seem to do the trick. However, there is hope for these people as many are qualified candidates for these cosmetic procedures that can help improve their appearance and boost their self-confidence," said Dr. Kevin Sadati.
