Liposuction:-
Liposuction is a minimal invasive procedure that aims to reshape different sections of the human body by removing excess fat through surgery. Often liposuction is combined with other surgical procedures like abdominoplasty to remove stubborn fat deposits. The procedure does not reduce weight and is solely for the purpose of removing fat in problem areas that do not respond to diet and exercise.
Types of Liposuction:-
1. Tumescent liposuction – During this cosmetic surgery procedure local anesthesia is applied to the areas where tube is likely to be inserted. To remove the fatty tissue, solution combining lidocaine and epinephrine is injected into that area.
2. Ultrasound assisted liposuction – Ultrasound technique directs heat rays on the required fatty deposits to melt and remove them. This procedure is most suitable for removal of fat from abdomen, sides and back area in McLean, VA.
3. Laser assisted liposuction – Low energy laser rays are directed by skilled doctor at the fat deposits which are collected through a cannula and removed from the body.
How is the treatment done?
The vaser liposuction treatment requires a saline solution mixed with anesthetics (also known as tumescent liquid) to be injected into the body area that is being treated. This method uses ultrasound high frequency to break fat cells instead of manual movement or laser or water pressure to break down the fat. Vaser ultrasonic probes are inserted into the fatty tissue to break down the fatty cells. The vibration loosens the fat cells and emulsifies the tumescent liquid that has been injected in the area of the body that is being treated. As the emulsification process starts, a small cannula is used to remove the liquid and the fat cells. The local anesthetic that remains in the area helps to deal with the post-procedural pain.
The process offers the cosmetic surgeon greater control and a person is able to get the smooth and contoured look that he/she wants. Vaser liposuction uses the sline solution that causes less bleeding and bruising and protects and preserves other tissues.
Are there any side effects?
The risks associated with vaper liposuction are relatively less compared to surgical liposuction. However, some risks are involved as the process is after all a medical procedure. The ultrasound device which is used to heat and liquefy may burn the skin and tissues. Sometimes, the skin, from where excess fat was removed, becomes saggy, dimpled and wavy as they do not respond to tightening. Vaser liposuction can cause discoloration of skin and changes in skin pigmentation.
How long does it take to recover?
The swelling that occurs due to vaper liposuction usually recedes in about 24 days. The normal time period required for the bruising to subside is generally 16 days. Again, about 16 days are required for patients to get over the numbness in areas where the therapy has been done. This treatment does not have any such harsh implications but a person requires about 3 week time to get over the initial side-effects.
What is the price of the treatment in India?
The cost of liposuction varies accordingly and it depends on where from you are receiving the treatment. However the approximate rates for performing this procedure in different parts of the body are as follows: Rs 40000 for the neck, Rs 136000 for abdomen, Rs 27000 for chin, Rs 57000 for arm, Rs 1,20000 for thighs and Rs 60000 – Rs 80000 for the buttocks.
Are the results of the treatment permanent?
Vaser liposuction helps to remove genetic fat deposits that cannot be easily removed by exercising. The main benefit of this treatment is that helps you to get in good shape by removing excess fat. However, you need to lead a healthy lifestyle in order to prevent your body from going back to its old self. A person should exercise regularly and avoid having sweets and fast foods so as to maintain the sculpted look that the treatment has provided him/her.
