What are love handles?

What causes love handles and back fat?

The cause of love handles is simple, the body isn’t burning enough fat and has to store it somewhere. Through time, this build up of fat can become noticeable in the exact areas you don’t want it, ruining an individual's confidence.

There are many factors that contribute to the formation of love handles, these mostly include the lack of physical exercise, changes in hormone levels, age and conditions which slow down the body's metabolism, making it harder to burn fat.

How do you get rid of love handles?

There are many simple lifestyle changes you can make like exercising multiple times per week, consuming a healthy diet and controlling sleep which can be attributed to the diminishing of love handles. Whilst this is true, for many, love handles live well on after these lifestyle changes are made.

Quite often, the best way to remove love handles is through a surgical procedure. This not only removes love handles quickly but ensures they won’t come back. An effective surgical procedure combined with lifestyle changes can create a powerful combination for removing love handles and bringing people closer to their dream body.
