Liposuction:


 
 

Liposuction is commonly understood, known and referred to as Body Fat Reduction Surgery, Slimming surgery, Body Slimming Surgery, Fat Reduce Surgery, Fat Reduction Surgery, Fat Reduction By Laser,  Fat Removal Surgery, Vaser Lipo, Vaser Liposuction, Body Fat Removal, Liposuction, Tumescent Liposuction, Body Liposuction, Body Contouring Plastic Surgery, Body Contouring, Lipectomy Surgery, Liposculpture, Liposculpting, Lipoplasty Surgery, Body Liposuction, Mega Liposuction (as under), etc. etc. 

Liposuction is absolutely safe and requires only 2 to 4 mm keyhole puncture which does not cause any major mark or scar on the body and the surgery mark gradually fades. Have no apprehensions. Patient is up and free to do normal physical activity within hours or overnight depending on the extent. Cosmetic Slimming surgery or Liposuction has no side effects.

Liposuction is not only about taking out body fat but also, quite importantly, giving the body a proper finish - Body Contour and a slim body. It all depends on the surgeon's skill.

Basically Liposuction is a Body Fat Reduction Surgery for removing excess or unwanted subcutaneous body fat from any area. The direct result of Liposuction is body contouring or a slim body. Weight reduction is a necessary bi-product of the fat reduction surgery. Subcutaneous fatty tissue is the one that dwells under the skin and above the muscles. Excess deposits of these subcutaneous tissues make a person look overweight and out of shape. Liposuction Surgery only removes these subcutaneous tissues and does not affect or intervene with any of the body internal organs - making Liposuction a completely safe procedure without any side effects - but then a pair of expert hands are required for this delicate fat reduction and body contouring surgery.

 
 

There are many techniques for Liposuction Surgery. Few of these Liposuction Surgery techniques are
mentioned below :

  1. Normal Liposuction (SAL) / Lipectomy Surgery / Liposculpture / Liposculpting / Lipoplasty Surgery In India, Mumbai, Goa, Delhi & Bangalore  : This is a traditional Fat Reduction Surgery technique, it is time tested and a Gold Standard for Body Fat Removal till date. Body Fat is suctioned out using fine canulas by the plastic surgeon. This procedure of Body Fat Removal Surgery is normally done under spinal, epidural, general or local  Anesthesia with sedation. Technically it is termed as SAL : Suction Assisted Liposuction.

  2. Ultrasonic Liposuction / Lipectomy Surgery / Liposculpture / Liposculpting / Lipoplasty Surgery In India, Mumbai, Goa, Delhi & Bangalore : Ultrasonic Waves / Ultrasound Energy is used to first loosen and break the fat cells and then Body Fat is suctioned out. This procedure of Body Fat Reduction Surgery is normally done under spinal, epidural, general or local  Anesthesia with sedation. Technically it is termed as UAL : Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction.

  3. Vaser Liposuction / Lipectomy Surgery / Liposculpture / Liposculpting / Lipoplasty Surgery In India, Mumbai, Goa, Delhi & Bangalore : This is the latest version of Ultrasonic Liposuction and is normally done under spinal, epidural, general or local  Anesthesia with sedation.

  4. Tumescent Liposuction / Lipectomy Surgery / Liposculpture / Liposculpting / Lipoplasty Surgery In India, Mumbai, Goa, Delhi & Bangalore : It is also referred to as Liposculpture, Lipoplasty. Prior to Body Fat Reduction Surgery some amount of medicinal fluid is injected in the designated area. This makes suction of fat cells easier and more comfortable for the patient in terms of pain, bleeding, bruising etc. Normally two techniques are used; 1. Wet Tumescent Liposuction and 2. Super Wet Tumescent Liposuction. Tumescent Liposuction is normally done under spinal, epidural, general or local  Anesthesia with sedation. Tumescent Liposuction is quite popular and has become the first choice now.

  5. Laser Liposuction / Lipectomy Surgery / Liposculpture / Liposculpting / Lipoplasty Surgery In India, Mumbai, Goa, Delhi & Bangalore : This procedure involves exposure of selected body fat cells to laser. Laser breaks these cells which over a period of time drain out from the body naturally. HOWEVER. LASER LIPOSUCTION HAS NOT YET BEEN APPROVED BY FDA and is not done since the results are doubtful.

  6. Non Surgical Fat Reduction : For information on Non surgical Fat Reduction, Lipolysis, Lipolysis Injection Therapy, Lipodissolve, Cool Lipo Laser, Non Surgical Ultrasonic Fat Reduction Injectibles and Chemical Agents under lipolysis, mesotherapy please CLICK here.

All the abovementioned techniques of fat reduction surgery can normally be used anywhere on full body. This is also true for full body liposuction. Except for Laser Liposuction all the above mention liposuction techniques whether they are termed as Vaser Liposuction or Tumescent Liposuction or Ultrasonic Liposuction or Normal Liposuction give more or less the same result in terms of body contouring and all of them involve suctioning out body fat to achieve contoured body. The incision is tiny, only a 2 to 4 mm and is hidden in body folds. Liposuction is a keyhole surgical procedure.
