Men and women can maintain the results of their Smartlipo laser liposuction in NYC only if they follow a healthy lifestyle and make the right diet choices. Many patients ask their surgeon whether it is necessary to follow a special diet after liposuction surgery. As a general rule, you should follow a diet that includes a sufficient amount of minerals, nutrients, and energy-inducing foods to accelerate the healing process and help the body recover its strength naturally. Surgeons also recommend not consuming certain foods after the treatment.
