Dr. David Rapaport, board-certified plastic surgeon in NYC, explains the real purpose of liposuction — and why it’s not a weight loss procedure. Instead, lipo is designed to improve body proportions by targeting stubborn fat deposits that remain even at a healthy weight.
In this video, Dr. Rapaport breaks down:
• Why liposuction is about reshaping, not weight loss
• The difference between fatty disproportions vs. overall weight gain
• How alternatives like CoolSculpting may help with smaller problem areas
• Why being honest about your goals is key to long-lasting results
If you’ve ever wondered whether liposuction is right for you, this quick explanation will help you understand the right reasons — and the right expectations — for the procedure.
