ProLipo for Adolescents

ProLipo is among the most advantageous liposuction techniques, as it will involve minimal surgery and give great results. The procedure is suitable for healthy adults of all ages, but there are cases in which adolescents undergo ProLipo surgery.

Adolescents and ProLipo

The obesity rates in children and adolescents are on the rise, and there are multiple factors to blame including a sedentary lifestyle and unhealthy eating. There are numerous ways to lose weight and adolescents can eliminate fat much easier than adults due to their increased metabolism. However, some adolescents may opt for a quick fix, such as a liposuction technique that will eliminate fat without effort, in a simple procedure.

ProLipo is more recommended for adolescents than other more invasive liposuction procedures, as ProLipo will have minimal side effects, no skin damage or scarring, and it involves fewer surgery risks.

ProLipo may be used on areas such as the face, neck, stomach, buttocks, thighs, back or arms. Not all adolescents are suitable candidates for ProLipo; the plastic surgeon can make a decision for each individual patient. The costs of a ProLipo surgery may be difficult to cover by adolescents, but most often, the parents will pay for the surgery.
