Which Liposuction Procedure Is Best Suited For You?

With the influx of technology, there are various liposuction procedures available, but you need to be clear about the one that is best for your needs. To choose the best liposuction procedure for you, it’s important to comprehend how each one works and what each procedure entails. One of the key liposuction benefits is its ability to contour your body by removing excess fat, resulting in a slimmer, more toned appearance.

What is Liposuction?

Liposuction is a cosmetic procedure that removes excess fat from the human body. It primarily removes localized fat deposits from certain body areas, like the stomach or thighs. Liposuction can be performed through an incision in your arm and a small keyhole incision below your navel. The liposuction cost is decided by the procedures used and where they are performed.

The suction device manoeuvres through specific body parts to remove excess fat cells from bulges such as love handles, thighs, and stomachs. There are two types of liposuction called tumescent technique and non-invasive lipo (slimming). The first is more invasive than the latter, but both methods have great success rates with little to no risks for most people who undergo lipo procedures.

Which Liposuction procedure is best suited for you?

Many people are not well-versed in the fact that there are many different types of liposuction. If you go to a surgeon and ask which procedure suits you, they will give you a list of options and tell you how each procedure works to sculpt your body. These procedures use different technologies to remove fat cells in the body.

There are four main types of liposuction procedures: 

1. Tumescent Liposuction

This type is known as one of the traditional methods of liposuction and is considered ideal for people with excess fat deposits in their bodies. The targeted area is numbed with the help of anaesthesic agent mixed with epinephrine, causing the area to enlarge and the surgeon to makes a small  incision to remove  the excess fat.

In order to remove the large amounts of fatty deposits faster and effectively, a high-pressure vacuum is connected to a cannula that has been placed into the targeted location. Surgeries, including abdominoplasty, breast reduction, neck contouring, and arm lift, frequently require SAL.

2. Ultrasonic-Assisted Lipoplasty

Recommended for smaller areas; this liposuction liquefies the body fat with the help of ultrasound waves before it can be expelled from the body. It is known to be one of the safest types of liposuction for the ones who worry about nerves or vessels getting damaged during the procedure.

3. Laser-Assisted Lipoplasty

This liposuction is well-suited for sensitive areas like the chin, neck, and face. This less invasive method of liposuction uses the heat produced by fibre optic lasers to dissolve away the fat. Quite dramatic fat sculpting results are possible. Compared to other conventional liposuction techniques, it has a shorter recovery time.
