Why is Liposuction *Still* the Gold Standard For Fat Removal

By Ysabel Vitangcol on July 2, 2019

Achieving your ideal body shape is never an easy journey.

The Way To Go

Proper diet and exercise may be best way to lose weight and get the body you truly desire. However, sometimes these aren’t always enough. This applies especially when your metabolism slows down and the excesses and indulgences of your younger years finally catch up with you.


Now, no matter how many pasta buffets you passed up on or hours you spend sweating your way through Pound class, that persistent bit of tummy or those bye-bye arms are still a constant. It can get so frustrating that sometimes you just wish for instant gratification, or at least a little boost-up. 

Instant gratification may come in the form of 360° Liposuction. This is a popular procedure that’s still considered the gold standard in fat removal. In the traditional liposuction procedure, fat was sucked out from under the skin. This was done via manual manipulation and a thin tube called a cannula. Often, the procedure was bloody and messy. It alwo came with down sides: excruciating pain, and the potential for weird bumps and loose skin post-surgery. 

Liposuction today

These days, liposuction has a kinder and gentler reputation, no less due to advanced technology. And with Belo 360° Liposuction, the procedure has become more holistic. Belo’s signature way of doing lipo is more circumferential. This targets not just the stubborn fat but the area around it as well. As Belo surgeon Dr. Eloisa Buse explains, everything gets slimmer and toned in a way that you won’t end up with a thin part while everything else is fat. 

While liposuction more or less gives permanent results, destroying the fat cells in the areas that were targeted, Dr. Buse warns that it shouldn’t be taken as a license to eat and live a sedentary lifestyle. “It is a push to a start-up diet. If not maintained with diet and exercise, patients gain the fat in the areas that were not done.” She encourages patients to eat the right kind of food in moderate amounts and to complement their diet with exercise to improves the form of their new body.
