Plastic surgery blog: Guys need to watch the gut too!

Don't get caught with your belly in your lap!

 

It is rarely  table conversation how a man looks in his swimming trunks; but ,in this day of technology, camera phones ,and YouTube it is important that guys notice if their stomach hangs over their belt. A recent article in the Daily Post made a full on attempt to give men the secrets to losing the fat. The article explained the two types of fat, subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. 

Visceral fat is inside the abdominal wall; subcutaneous fan is outside the abdominal wall, the stuff you can grab. It’s commonly believed that visceral fat is more harmful, associated with more health risks than subcutaneous fat. While that’s generally true, it’s not 100 percent the case. There’s some evidence subcutaneous fat isn’t as benign as some people think.  The main tip for men to lose the fat? Stop (or moderate )drinking beer. 

Dr Krieger consults with patients at many different stages of the fight against obesity. Men with a beer belly generally do well with aggressive liposuction. The majority of the fat must be subcutaneous as that is the only fat that is removed with liposuction. Typically Dr Krieger will also recommend liposuction of the love handles and the lower back. This will encompass the entire waist. Often he is able to remove the maximum amount that can be removed in one setting. The patient will need to wear an abdominal binder for 3-4 weeks.This helps to re-drape the skin.  The binder can be worn under a shirt and is virtually undetectable. Once the initial healing period is over most men loose 2-3 inches or more off of their waistline.
