No!!! The body creates new fat cells to store the excess calories that you consume.

Do the effects of liposuction last?
Fat cells removed from the body by liposuction should not come back, however, if a significant amount of weight is gained, new fat cells can grow. With smaller amounts of weight gain, fat cells in other areas will increase in size, but the area where liposuction was performed should not see any increase in fat. With significant amounts of weight gain, fat cells that were not removed will increase in size and the possibility of new fat cell growth in the areas treated by liposuction exists. However, the amount of fat in these areas is relatively less than in other areas. Ideally, a patient should maintain the weight loss (however minimal) attained during liposuction in order to sustain the optimal results of the procedure. Assuming a patient does not gain a large amount of weight after the procedure, then the body should retain the silhouette accomplished during liposuction. Even with moderate weight gain, the body should maintain the results, but in a slightly larger proportion. Because liposuction is not a reliable source of weight loss, patients should expect to maintain their results through diet and exercise. Cosmetic surgeons also caution that although the results of liposuction are more or less permanent, liposuction does not prevent the body from aging and fat stores can migrate in the body as you age. For women who become pregnant after liposuction, once you have lost all of the weight from the pregnancy, your body should return to the state it was in, as though you had never been pregnant. Again it is important to remember that if you are still carrying weight, it will show in other areas of the body and possibly the areas treated, depending on the amount of weight.
What is power assisted liposuction?
Power assisted liposuction uses a special cannula which uses tiny, rapid vibrations to break up fat cells so that they can be suctioned out of the body a lot easier.
Why liposuction provides only a temporary solution to the problem of excess of weight?
The body will produce more fat cells
What type of results do you get after having liposuction?
"You can expect a better body shape within 3 months. What a liposuction does is permanently remove the fat cells. Although the fat cells removed don't grow back, new ones can form with weight gain. The more weight you gain back, the less dramatic the results will be."
How can adults gain weight as fat since mature adipose cells don't divide?
Mature adipose cells do not divide to make more cells, but they can get larger. Liposuction removes adipose cells so excessive fat cannot be regained in that area.
How did liposuction get its name?
Liposuction got his name from combining two words: lipo (which means fat) and suction (we all know what suction means). A liposuction process involves destroying fat cells that need to be removed after! A cannule inserted through incsisions removes the fat cells' remnants via suction!
What occurs in body liposuction contouring?

How is cellulite treated by liposuction?

Does Laser Liposuction work better than Standard Liposuction?
Great question! The answer is that there is no scientific evidence that laser liposuctionoffers any benefits over standard liposuction. The retraction of the overlying skin has to do with its turgor rather than the instrument used to remove the fat. No matter the modality, (whether laser, vaser, smart liposuction, ultrasonic liposuction) they all produce the same results. Through small incisions a liposuction cannula is inserted and fat cells are gently removed. Liposuction is the ideal procedure for removing small localized areas of fat to create a smooth, contoured physique.
How does a cell maintain homeostasis?
