Belly Fat is Dangerous for Women

The medical press has stated that the BMI (body mass index), which is used to calculate risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, death rate and a myriad of other medical problems may not be the most accurate predictor.

A more accurate predictor may be the waist and hip circumference. In both women and men, a waist greater than 35 inches for women and 40 inches for men, may be associated with a 3 times increase of heart disease. Having a big waist may raise the death rate even in men and women that are not overweight. In fact, having large hips and a small waist reduces the risk of heart disease.

The problem appears to be visceral fat. This type of fat surrounds our organs such as intestines or liver. The menopause, hormones, pregnancy and overeating may stimulate the subcutaneous fat. A good diet will greatly reduce visceral fat and subcutaneous fat and therefore reduce chronic diseases and premature death. Genetics alone determines who has more fat cells in the hips or in the waist. Hundreds of abdominal crunches daily will not give anyone a flat tummy.

The RINNOVA diet plan targets visceral fat which is always lost faster than subcutaneous fat. The diet is very effective in losing not only the visceral fat but also some subcutaneous fat. The diet is easy to follow and allows patients eat healthy. If needed, medication is used to help shed those pounds easily and quickly.

Reducing visceral fat by dieting will improve our health while targeted liposuction can sculpt the body and achieve a cosmetically pleasing proportion between hips and waist. After or during successful weight loss, traditional liposuction, combined with our powerful yet gentle thermolaser, can also retract and tighten the skin that was stretched by fat accumulation or pregnancy. Severe skin laxity due to weight loss or pregnancy can be addressed by a dermolipectomy (in office tummy tuck) to provide beautiful cosmetic results.

At RINNOVA we can help you obtain a healthy and beautiful body. We can also take that unwanted fat and put it where you may want it, e.g. your breast or buttocks. Schedule a free consultation to find out how you can use your spare tire.
