Which Type Of Liposuction Techniques You Need To Choose?

Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery used to improve the appearance of the whole or part of a person’s body. This surgery involves the permanent removal of fat from the body by using the method of suction. The process involves using a fine blunt cannula to remove the fat and fat cells from a part of the body. The fat is liquified with the help of an ultrasonic device (Vaser) which is then sucked out of the body.

Usually, regional anaesthesia may suffice for the lower part of the body or general anesthesia may be required for multiple areas. It primarily reshapes certain parts of your body by getting rid of the fat. in the process when the fat is lost permanently, weight is also reduced. It is generally preferred for those areas in your body which do not respond to either exercise or diet, such as the buttocks, abdomen, breast, thighs, arms and the legs. In some cases, it may also be combined with other procedures such as, breast reduction and abdominoplasty. 

There are various liposuction techniques such as: 

1. Laser assisted liposuction: The technique utilizes a laser to melt the excess fat in the targeted area. 
2. Ultrasound-assisted liposuction: A special cannula, which transmits ultrasound waves throughout the body, is used to liquify the fat. 
3. Power assisted liposuction: A special cannula capable of mechanical movement is used for quicker fat removal and better reshaping. An improvement in the body shape might be noticed immediately after the procedure. Pre existing skin laxity also reduces with the liposuction procedure. The recovery period is around a few days to 2-3 weeks.
