Is liposuction really helpful for losing weight? I'm a bit concerned about any possible side effects with this treatment. Also, how long does the whole process usually take?

Vitamin B12 can be taken along with Practin (Montelukast), but it's essential to consult your doctor or pharmacist first. Practin is typically used for asthma or allergies, and Vitamin B12 is often prescribed for deficiency or nerve-related issues. Monitor for potential interactions, and adjust dosages if necessary, under medical supervision.

View allI'm considering liposuction but not sure if it's the right choice for me. What are the pros and cons of this procedure? Are there any risks I should know about before deciding? How do I know if I'm a good candidate for this surgery?
Liposuction, a cosmetic surgery, offers the potential to reshape body contours by removing stubborn fat deposits, but it's not a weight loss procedure and carries potential risks and complications. Pros: Improved Body Shape: Liposuction can enhance body contours, particularly in areas where fat is resistant to diet and exercise. Increased Self-Confidence: Improved appearance can boost self-esteem and confidence. Permanent Fat Cell Removal: Liposuction removes fat cells permanently, meaning they won't return if you gain weight. Targeted Fat Reduction: It can address specific areas like the abdomen, thighs, or hips. Cons: Not a Weight Loss Solution: Liposuction primarily reshapes body contours and is not intended for significant weight loss. Risks and Complications: Possible risks include infection, bleeding, numbness, scarring, and uneven results or skin irregularities. Incomplete Fat Removal: Liposuction can't remove all fat in the treated area, and some fat may remain. Potential for Sagging Skin: If skin elasticity is poor, the skin may appear loose or sagging after liposuction.

I'm 19 and really want to get rid of this but I'm worried about surgery options. Are there any procedures that don't have side effects and won't cost too much? What would you recommend for someone my age?
For someone 19 years old concerned about acne scar treatment, non-surgical options like chemical peels, laser treatments, or microneedling are worth considering, as they are generally less invasive and may have fewer side effects than surgical procedures. These treatments can be more cost-effective, especially when compared to surgery. However, the best approach depends on the severity and type of scarring, and consulting with a dermatologist is crucial for personalized recommendations
