The new Trend: Body Contouring.

Why is nutrition important after a body contouring/skin tightening treatment?
Non-surgical body contouring treatments are a fantastic way to eliminate excess fat cells in a specific areas- adults have a fixed amount of fat cells in the body which body contouring treatments aim to get rid of permanently. For optimum results it’s important to follow with a healthy diet and exercise routine. From research and experience, it has been noted that patients who don’t modify their daily routine with healthy habits after “liposuction” procedures will have a propensity to gain weight in parts of the body that were not treated and were not previously problematic. Patients will therefore achieve more successful results after treatment if they develop healthy living habits.


What should I eat after treatment?
A contouring treatment can be taxing on the body and leave you feeling tender, so a body contouring patient will need to make wise food decisions so that the tissues and skin can heal better during the recovery period. The body needs proteins to generate new cells, and eating foods high in protein can help the overall recovery process as proteins are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body’s tissues and organs.
Eating in smaller portions and avoiding processed foods will help maintain weight with ease when combined with a regular exercise routine.


General recommendations:
It’s true what they say! Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and helps maintain a good metabolism so definitely do not skip. Start the day with a green tea, rather than coffee as can lead to a slower absorption of proteins- choose a green tea high in antioxidants as will help detox the body of toxins, dinking plenty of water and walking is also essential.


Reduce salt consumption and replace table salt with sea salt, also avoid all processed food, white sugar, milk and white flours as they are likely to cause fluid retention. To sweeten food and drinks replace sugar with natural honey sugar- a table spoon of raw honey contains 64 calories (fat free, cholesterol free and sodium free)
