Two common reasons for this are; eating the wrong foods and/or not eating enough foods. You might be eating smaller meals or snacking less often, but you may be eating foods that contain more calories. This leads to weight gain. Maybe you’re eating too little, which can lead to decreased fat loss and hinder your weight loss results. You may benefit from a medical weight loss program.

Liposuction removes the fat from the body using suction. In recent years, improved techniques have made Liposuction safer, easier, and less painful. Laser assisted liposuction is one that uses laser energy to melt away fat, which is then easier to remove. SmartLipo is a specific type of laser liposuction that employs this method to liquefy fat deposits, which is then suctioned from the body through a small cannula.
