How to prevent sagging skin after liposuction How to prevent sagging skin after liposuction

Everyone knows that liposuction can help lose weight, but the skin will become loose after liposuction. So what should you do if the skin becomes loose after liposuction? How to prevent the skin from becoming loose after liposuction? Let's take a look.

1. Liposuction to treat sagging skin and replenish collagen

By injecting, taking orally or using collagen-supplementing creams, the supporting capacity of the waist and abdomen skin can be significantly enhanced. Eating more foods rich in collagen, such as pig's trotters and white fungus, can also improve the sagging of the waist and abdomen skin after liposuction.

2. Liposuction for sagging skin requires a balanced diet

Eat more fruits and vegetables containing antioxidant vitamin C, such as carrots, tomatoes, grapes, etc., and drink more red wine and tea, because these foods are rich in vitamin C, which protects the collagen in the waist and abdomen skin from excessive loss. Avoid eating high-fat foods, such as fatty pork, pig feet, etc., to avoid the production of free radicals, accelerate aging, and cause skin sagging after liposuction.

3. Liposuction for sagging skin requires aerobic exercise

Aerobic exercise is an effective way to enhance the elasticity of the skin on the waist and abdomen and shrink loose sebum.

1. Wear body shaping clothes to prevent sagging

The skin will not necessarily become loose after liposuction, but in order to make the patient's skin smooth again faster, the doctor will ask each patient to wear a professional elastic body shaper immediately after liposuction to help control swelling.

2. Remove excess skin to prevent sagging

If the patient is severely obese and has very loose skin before the surgery, then the skin is likely to become loose after liposuction. If the patient encounters this situation, they can usually communicate with the doctor and then undergo local plastic surgery. For example, if the abdominal skin is severely loose, abdominal wall plastic surgery can be performed to remove excess skin, which can make the skin smooth.

3. Rely on the skin's own adjustment to prevent sagging

In fact, our own skin has good elasticity, unless the liposuction surgery is performed on older patients.

Generally not. Human skin is an elastic tissue. Even if young people have atrophy, the skin will gradually shrink and will not be loose forever. In addition, there are many fiber septa in the deep layer of the skin that rivet the skin and deep tissues together like ropes. Liposuction only removes subcutaneous fat tissue. These crisscrossing fiber septa will pull the skin back and stick it again. In addition, you need to wear a body shaper for a period of time after the operation to help the skin shrink quickly.

1. After liposuction, the skin becomes loose and uneven. The main reason is the doctor's operation skills. Because the subcutaneous fat of the human body is divided into shallow and deep layers, namely the honeycomb layer and the plate-like layer, when liposuction is performed, fat from both layers must be extracted, and the subcutaneous fat must maintain a certain thickness. If it is not maintained and there is no fat support, the two layers will stick together, making the skin uneven.

2. As for the phenomenon of sagging skin, there are two situations: one is that the person is extremely obese, and a lot of fat is sucked out at once, causing the skin to sag; the other is that the extracted fat is too thin. This situation can be controlled artificially. An experienced doctor will maintain a certain thickness under the skin when extracting fat.
