Having worn many hats, including that of image consultant, I have often been asked & recommended the tweaking of individuals' physical appearance via more radical procedures than diet & exercise.
Understand that for most, diet and exercise is obviously the recommended course to improve one's appearance. For some, however, other options may be more viable when fat pockets and/or cellulite cannot be eliminated successfully.
There is much conflicting information & confusion when it comes to these two popular procedures:
MESOTHERAPY LIPOSUCTION/Liposculpture
Thank you!
