Removal of large amounts of fat from an individual would result in shock, at the least, and at worst, death. Liposuction is used on vary limited areas, like under the belly button, around the knee, at the top side of the thigh, etc. It is not and has never been a "weight loss" surgery or method.

Does fat grow back where you had liposuction?

Yes, fat can grow back in the treated areas after liposuction, although the results can vary by individual. If a person gains weight after the procedure, remaining fat cells can expand, and new fat may accumulate in untreated areas. However, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with diet and exercise can help preserve the results. It's important to have realistic expectations and understand that liposuction is not a weight-loss solution but rather a body contouring procedure.


Does showering help with weight loss?

Showering does not directly help with weight loss. Weight loss is primarily achieved through a combination of a healthy diet and regular exercise. Showering may help with relaxation and hygiene, but it does not have a significant impact on weight loss.
