Many people assume that liposuction will maintain their ideal body shape forever, but this is not true. Local Anesthetic Minimally Invasive LipoSuction (LAMS) is the best solution for permanently removing fat cells in specific areas of the body, a process that diet and exercise alone cannot address.
However, maintaining your body goals long-term requires consistency and discipline in adopting a healthy lifestyle. Read these tips from dr. Fanny Lesmanawati, M.Ked.Klin., Sp.B.P.R.E., to maintain your body goals after LAMS treatment.
1. Maintain Weight
Even though fat cells are permanently removed, this doesn't mean you can eat freely without exception. Continue following your nutritionist's recommendations for maintaining a healthy diet to prevent weight gain, fat mass, and BMI. Dr. Fanny also recommends:
- Exercise regularly, at least three times a week.
- Maintain good eating habits, avoiding snacking, overeating, or emotional eating.
- Take additional supplements as needed according to your doctor's prescription.
2. Maintain Healthy Skin
Maintaining healthy skin can boost self-confidence, so dr. Fanny recommends the following treatments:
- Take skin health supplements such as vitamin E, collagen, biotin, and others.
- Use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun's UV rays.
- Perform lymphatic massage to detoxify, reduce swelling, and improve skin quality.
- Do not smoke or consume alcohol.
3. Routine Aftercare Treatments
Routine aftercare treatments at akasia 365mc to maintain skin firmness. Treatment options include:
- Mesotherapy: reduces fat and nourishes the skin
- X-Wave: improves skin texture
- Exilis RF: skin tightening and rejuvenation
- HIFU: achieves a more defined and slimmer appearance (V-shape) in the cheeks, chin, and jawline
4. Manage Stress & Maintain Mental Health
Dr. Fanny emphasizes the importance of managing stress and maintaining mental health. An unhealthy or unbalanced mental state affects your physical health because it causes excessive stress that disrupts hormones, weakens the immune system, and triggers metabolic disorders. This leads to various diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. Lack of rest can also trigger weight gain.
