Here’s how a modest weight loss is still significant enough in ensuring better health.

Before you allow ageing to take the reigns and resign to its notoriety, there ARE ways for us to strike back at ageing (with a vengeance) which would make us look and feel 21 again.

An increasing number of men over 35 are moving from basic grooming such as eyebrow shaping and skincare, to aesthetic treatments like wrinkle-smoothing, commonly known as ‘Brotox’. They also seek cosmetic surgeries such as facial liposuction and gynecomastia surgery.

Having a negative body image perception can be detrimental. Yet, in the pursuit of wanting to look better, an individual is sometimes accused of being vain when the underlying goal is to increase self-confidence and for some, to eliminate a potential health issue.

Thanks to technology, aesthetics treatments are so advanced these days that it’s possible to enhance and contour your body while getting rid of stubborn fats that are hard to eliminate – all within a short time and in a safe manner.

Fat cells will not regenerate in areas where liposuction was done. However, there is a limit to the number of fat cells a body can store new fat, so with weight gain, some other areas may seem more significant than a previous weight gain. This, in turn, may give the appearance of the fat moving from one location to another.

Dr Puah speaks from his 17 years (and counting) of liposuction and body contouring experience, where he has helped many patients achieve a balanced and proportionate-looking body.

Not so long ago, a common wishful thought, when it comes to appearance, would have definitely been the ability to transfer fat from areas where excess is in abundance to areas where it is desperately needed. Fast-forward to today, and that wish seems to have come true.

As the trend of wearing sportswear even outside of the gym is now becoming a norm, it has also created a ripple effect in individuals who are becoming more image and body-conscious.

Though, there could be two conditions tied up to the common man’s boobs problems: Gynecomastia & Pseudogynecomastia. What is the difference between these two? How is one connected to the other?

Preparing oneself physically and mentally can go a long way in helping reduce potential complications en route to achieving the desired liposuction result.
