LOVE HANDLES: Is it your destiny?

Known by many names in world literature, the problem of localized fat accumulation, called “Love Handles,” “Love Grips,” or “Side Love Handles,” is not such a pleasant problem. While it certainly provides a cushioning feeling when hugging, it’s a problem that makes patients unhappy with their physical appearance.

“Love handles” are fatty areas located on both sides of the waist, above the hips. They form due to fat accumulation in the hip and abdominal areas. They can be found in both male and female patients and are especially indicative of cardiovascular diseases after a certain age.

Furthermore, after a certain age, it is difficult to get rid of them with exercise and diet alone, without additional micro-invasive or macro-invasive treatments. The rise of low-waist pants and skirts has led to an increase in this localized fat problem in society. The rate is lower in those who wear high-waist clothing that creates a corset effect.

So, how do we melt away “Love Handles”?

First of all, balanced nutrition, regular exercise, and drinking plenty of water are very important. As for medical aesthetic applications; With MLS (morpholiposculpture) or intralipotherapies like Aqualyx/Desobody, you can say goodbye to treatments requiring only 2-4 sessions.
