Exercise Sculpting vs. Cosmetic Enhancements

Exercise Sculpting by Maintaining a Calorie-Deficit Diet and Cardio Exercise

Physical results - Medium to long term

You can reduce your body fat by forcing your body to use the energy reserves from your body fat deposits. You will accomplish this by participating in a high-calorie-burning cardio program that will allow you to burn at least 500 calories in a session. You can accomplish this by participating in activities such as spinning bike sessions, aerobics classes or running.

Your heart rate will need to work at over 130 beats per minute in order to push the body to work harder and demand energy from the body’s energy reserves (the body fat that you have). The body should also go into ‘after burn mode’, whereby it calls on the energy deposits over the next 8 hours, thus burning the fat long after you have completed the workout.

When you combine this with a low-calorie diet of non-starch and high-glucose foods, your body should start to sculpt to a slimmer frame and you should notice a reduction in body fat, as well as a more radiant athletic look for your body.

One of the catches with the calorie-deficit diet is your body will keep telling you that you feel hungry. You will need to force your body from telling you to consume food to replenish the energy source in your body. By forcing your body not to eat, it will start to use energy reserves.

Sculpting the Body Using Liposuction and Cosmetic Surgery

Health risks – Low to medium
 
The option to undergo surgery to remove the body fat allows women to transform their body to the exact body shape that they want immediately. Although this method involves higher fees compared to the exercise sculpting option, the benefit that women will get the immediate change that will boost their physical presence and confidence.

The types of liposuction and body sculpting treatments that are on offer range from tummy tucks, to skin tightening, surgical and non-surgical liposuction treatments.

Liposuction treatment focuses on the removal of fat cells and tissue under the skin that provides an immediate reduction in weight. Tummy tucks are a similar procedure that focuses on removing the fat tissue around the abdomen to produce a flat stomach. The main motive for these treatments is to get the desired ‘athletic body’ look. For this type of treatment, Vaser liposuction treatments offer smooth, defined results with a quick recovery. Tummy tucks are another popular option to tighten the abdominal muscles to redefine the look for a more attractive and appealing stomach.

Diet

You need to maintain a healthy diet to avoid gaining fat again. Monitor your eating habits and steer clear of food and drinks that will cause the fat to return.

Physical Activity

Rest as required. Get advice from your surgeon on how much physical activity you can do and stick to it to avoid any of your incisions tearing or to risk causing any injury or inflammation.

Scarring

Some of the procedures may leave the patient with some permanent scarring and any potential risks with you undergoing the procedure should be consulted with your surgeon.
 
Post Recovery

Understanding the liposuction recovery process is essential. You can get your desired body shape immediately, but it is up to the individual to maintain their body shape over the long term to avoid any of the work becoming undone.  Furthermore, you need to be aware of any potential health risks such as infections, seroma or swelling. You should be well informed on the post-recovery process to minimise any health risks that could potentially affect you following the procedure.
