Exploring Different Liposuction Techniques We understand the importance addressing your specific concerns. There are different liposuction techniques available to meet your needs to achieve best before and after results. 1. VASER-Assisted Liposuction This is Ultrasound-assisted liposuction(UAL). In this procedure, a metal rod is placed under the skin, and the surgeon uses ultrasonic energy to liquefy the fat cells before removing them from the body. This method liquefies the fat cells before the removal, giving much smoother results and brings high-definition liposuction results. However, this procedure might be slightly expensive to others. This is commonly used for High-Definition Liposuction/HD Liposuction. |

- Apart from losing stubborn fat, liposuction gives you a new meaning to your body and self-confidence:
- Improved Self-Confidence
- Enhanced Body Shape and desired curves
- Better-Fitting Clothes
- Improved Posture and Flexibility by removing excess weight in some cases.
2. Power-Assisted Liposuction
This is Power-assisted liposuction(PAL). In this procedure, we use a stainless-steel tool called a cannula, which moves back and forth to break your fat. The Cannula helps make fat removal faster and more precise.
3. Traditional Liposuction
Traditional Liposuction technique involves removing the stubborn fat using manual liposuction cannulas after injecting a tumescent solution into the targeted fat areas to facilitate fat removal. This technique is still valuable in sculpting the body contour in certain body parts where precise liposuction is needed.
4. Air-Sculpt
Air-Sculpt is a trademarked name for a tumescent liposuction technique which uses constant flow of gas to assist in liposuction. This technique has no additional advantage, and in fact is more expensive to the patient.
Liposuction: Risks and Benefits
As we already discussed above the benefits of liposuction like:
- It will help enhance body contours by removing stubborn fat deposits resistant to diet and exercise.
- It will improve self-confidence and self-esteem by achieving a more desired body shape.
- But liposuction might have some side risks and side effects(These are rare, but important to consider):
- Temporary numbness post-surgery in and around the area of operation.
- Bruising, which is a common side effect.
- Infection is rare.
Understanding Liposuction Procedure
We need to educate our patients about the procedure and the safety measures that will be taken during the procedure. We prioritize our patient’s comfort, hygiene, and safety during the surgery. That’s why we are discussing what liposuction will look like with us. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of what you can expect:
1. Anesthesia Options:
o Awake Liposuction: This uses local anesthesia (tumescent solution) combined with either oral or intravenous sedation to keep you comfortable but awake during the procedure.
o General Anesthesia: This option involves putting you into a sleep state for the entire procedure.
2. Incisions: Incisions will be tiny and well hidden under your clothes.
3. Closing Incisions: Some incisions may be left open for drainage purposes, while others will be closed with sutures or adhesive strips.
4. Recovery: It aims for a quick and smooth liposuction recovery. After liposuction lymphatic massages, compression garments and use of healing adjuvants like Arnica and multivitamins make the recovery faster.
