Dr. Cory Goldberg says liposuction and abdominoplasty are just Band-Aids without lifestyle changes. He spends consultation time on diet, nutrition, and exercise because surgery alone won't stick.
Well, you know, I guess when it comes to body contouring, for example, I've recognized the importance of helping patients manage their lifestyle around those kinds of procedures. So, you know, when someone comes to me asking for a body contouring procedure such as a liposuction or a tummy tuck abdominoplasty, I really spend the time to talk to them about lifestyle. You know, I try to look at their diet and nutrition. I, you know, have a conversation with them about exercise. And I really make an effort to help patients address those things because I know very well that if I, if I, you know, do some liposuction on a patient and they're still following an unhealthy lifestyle, that I'm, you know, I'm doing nothing better than putting a Band-Aid on and really not helping them in the long term.
