The 21st century lifestyle is really changing the human shape. We spend more of our time sitting down than we used to. Computer screens and the like keep us at our desks a great deal more than is healthy for us. Combine the sedentary, low physical activity lifestyle with our modern diet of take-out food and hamburgers, a lot of which are packed with fats, MSGs and salts (all to make them tasty) and we have an obesity bomb exploding in our midst.

There are over 25,000 different diets out there, most work for a while and then the diet gets boring so back comes the fat. Gyms and Keep fit classes are great for keeping the tone and muscles but are time consuming, boring, and hard work. The gyms get very rich from the millions of subscribers who pay their monthly fees but seldom or never come. The thing with both diets and exercise is that they take diligence and adherence. With a great number of people's current lifestyle of an hour commute in the morning, work from 8 till six having sent out for a Pizza or a Burger and fries, washed down with a Pepsi for lunch, then have a drink or 2 in the office before going home. Chinese take out for dinner eaten if front of the TV. Not much time left for exercise and the intake of food mostly high calorie, hardly full of raw vegetables.

Body mass is a problem. Not only for appearance, which is important, but is also a major health hazard. All medical journals warn that, after smoking, obesity is a contributory factor in heart disease , diabetes and most of the other illnesses that plague our modern lives.

The surgical removal of fat by stomach banding and similar is fraught with dangers. Another method has been Liposuction or Lipo Surgery. The first attempts were almost 100 years ago but it is only in the last 30 years that real advances have been made in removing body fat from unwanted places by breaking down the fat cells using an irrigation technique and then sucking the unsightly fat away in liquid form. This procedure used to be extremely painful and did carry some risks.

For many years body sculpting with liposuction has been making advances. A leading specialist in modern lipo techniques is Dr Eduardo Sitnoveter. He has clinics in Cop Cabana, Rio De Janeiro as well as in Brasilia, Belo Horizonte and Sao Paolo that specialize in the so called Tumescent liposuction. This is a thoroughly up to date procedure that allows the body sculpting to be completed using local anesthesia.

This is a very major advance in technique as half the difficulty with the procedure was that general anesthetics are always a concern and there were other recurrence problems with the results not always as desired. But with the modern techniques the job are painless, recovery is fast (2 to 3 days and the results are instantly noticeable.

Dr Eduardo Sitnoveter is a renowned expert and has been servicing both Brazilian patients as well as people from neighboring countries as well as from the USA.
