Are Weight Loss And Fat Loss The Same? Amaris B. Clinic Clarifies

Here’s why you need to know the answer because you could be doing it wrong

The terms ‘fat loss’ and ‘weight loss’ are often used interchangeably, and it is understandable in some cases. Many who are keen in weight loss are most likely struggling with too much fat in their body. To lose weight, one must lose the fat.

But there are also many individuals who do not desire to lose weight. The numbers on the weighing scales are not their concern, those stubborn fat pockets are. Fat loss, therefore is what they are after. Fat loss is also a concern of individuals who look at their Body Mass Index (BMI) rather than their weight. Many consider a good BMI score to be a better basis for overall health than one’s weight.

Many types of people carry this concern of fat loss. There are the athletes who are recovering from a sports injury, moms who are trying to regain their prenatal bodies, couples engaged to be married who want to look their best on their special day, and busy professionals who just don’t have enough time in the day to spend hours in the gym.

Here are some weight loss and fat loss solutions you might want to consider.

This treatment is a popular choice at Amaris B. Clinic, widely known as the body sculpting clinic for its comprehensive offerings of customised weight management and, non-invasive and minimally invasive body sculpting programmes. The treatment is led by Dr. Ivan Puah, who received his VASER® body sculpting training in the United States.

VASER® Lipo, a minimally invasive procedure, is performed under local anaesthetic. Using a small probe to transmit ultrasound sound wave and liquefy fat cells before removal through a gentle suction process, VASER® Lipo is a much lesser invasive procedure than traditional liposuction. There is minimal downtime, and many can see results straight away.

However, the improved overall results will become more prominent in the months following the procedure.  VASER® Lipo can be used to sculpt and shape delicate areas of the body such as arms, chin, neck and inner thighs. It can remove fat from abdomen, buttocks, knees, hips, back, love handles and even calves. If you are having issues with stubborn and localised fat that you are unable to get rid of despite a strict diet and regular exercise, consider VASER® Lipo.

VASER® Hi-Def Lipo: Revealing Your 6-pack Abs

Just as the name suggests, VASER® Hi-Def Lipo targets the superficial layers of fat that cover muscles, thereby defining men’s six-pack abdominal muscles or women’s hourglass figure. This fat removal technique involves not only removing fat but meticulously sculpts and defines your curves and brings out the athletic figure in you.  

VASER® Hi-Def Lipo leverages ultrasound energy to emulsify the fat without harming the surrounding structures.  It is the only liposuction procedure that has been clinically proven to cause skin retraction. If you are looking to achieve defined six packs, VASER® Hi-Def Lipo is an option for you.

Weight Loss

Weight loss is not about counting your calories intake, treadmill running, weight lifting, popping diet pills or adopting some trendy Hollywood diet just because an A-list celebrity says so! To successfully move that needle on the weighing scale is to provide your body with the right tool for it to defend itself from your body’s own main source of weight gain. Besides excessive weight gain, other weight gain causes are hormonal imbalance, consuming foods that result in insulin and leptin resistance, chronic stress and food intolerance.

Amaris B. Clinic offers a weight loss programme, under doctor’s supervision, which includes consultation, blood tests, doctor’s weight management FDA-approved prescription, an array of body sculpting treatments and fitness training.

Whatever your weight loss or fat loss concerns might be, it is important to choose a program suited to your needs, lifestyle and desired results.
