What are the benefits of weight loss?

Your body weight is a factor in your overall health. If you’re carrying excess pounds, you may be at a higher risk for developing chronic diseases like osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. Being overweight or obese can also make you susceptible to chronic pain. Pain can limit your ability to be active, leading to additional weight gain. 

Losing even a small weight percentage can cut your risk for obesity-related diseases. You can also enjoy greater mobility and a boost of self-confidence about your physical appearance.

Houston Cosmetic Surgery Center provides medically supervised weight loss services for adult women and men.

Dr. Davila takes a whole-person approach to creating a weight loss program that helps you lose weight safely and consistently. He also empowers you to make lasting changes that support a healthy weight for the rest of your life.
