Reasons To Get Liposuction After The Global Lockdown

Reshaping your body and boosting your confidence are great reasons to get liposuction. But after the global lockdown, everything changed.

We don’t have to tell you that trimming your core is really hard. In fact, it’s one of the most difficult fitness goals to chase, and also one of the most difficult to maintain.

You could actually make the case that burning belly fat is considerably harder than training for a marathon.

If you spend enough time in a gym or health food store, you may encounter someone that says getting liposuction to remove belly fat is cheating or giving up. That is pure and utter nonsense. Here’s why.

Reasons To Get Liposuction After The Pandemic

After the global lockdown, everything has changed, including the people’s view on liposuction. So here are some good reasons to get liposuction nowadays:

1. The Pandemic Changed Everything

There are some lucky people that used the pandemic lockdown as an opportunity to get in the best shape of their lives. But most of us weren’t that lucky.

They say that abs are made in the kitchen. But abs are also made in the gym, the yoga studio, and the spin class.

So what happens when all of those things close down because of the pandemic? Most of us spent too much time in the kitchen.

It’s been estimated that over 60% of Americans gained weight during the pandemic. Some gained a few pounds, some gained 10, and some gained the so-called Quarantine 15.

This has led a record number of people to reach out to plastic surgeons for body contouring procedures to get their pre-pandemic bodies back.

2. Attitudes Are Changing

We’ve seen a massive societal shift over the last few years. Most people now have a far more liberal and destigmatized attitude towards liposuction and plastic surgery in general.

As we mentioned earlier, the global lockdown has played a major role in this. In June of 2020, 1000 people with no history of plastic surgery were surveyed and almost 50% were open to getting their first plastic surgery. Whereas a similar survey in 2014 found that only 17% were in favor of it.

If you’re reading this today, the odds are pretty good that you’re open to getting liposuction. And about half of your friends would also be open to getting a procedure too.

3. You Don’t Choose Your Metabolism

We’ve all been at a party or a restaurant and someone has said, “I’m lucky that I can eat whatever I want and I never gain weight.” Most of us are not that person. Most of us actually hate that person.

Some people simply win the genetic lottery. The rest of us have to work 10 times as hard to look half as good as those people. They have a clear advantage and they didn’t earn it.

So, after all of your hard work, wouldn’t you say that you’ve earned an advantage?

The Takeaway

A liposuction procedure can help you target that belly fat that no number of crunches or KMs ran can seem to get rid of.

The liposuction procedure may or may not be for you. However, if you’re not getting a procedure because you’re worried about what other people will say, it’s time to do something to treat yourself.
