Cosmetic Surgery Liposuction

By


Liposuction

Whether you are thinking of getting a liposuction in town or in Colombia where tens of thousands of people go to every year to get all types of cosmetic surgeries for a small fraction of the price paid in the US, Canada or Europe, and many times with much better doctors and better specialized attention. Make sure you know what's involved in the latest and most advanced cosmetic procedures. What we know as cosmetic surgery liposuction is not the same process that was around in the early 80s and 90s. Newer technology offers non-invasive procedures that have left the older dangerous forms in the past. Recovery times have become drastically shorter and as a result there is a lack of complications that occur.

Newer forms of liposuction give people the chance to actually rid their bodies of fat deposits in areas that once found it difficult. Since diet and exercise alone cannot always help these areas to trim down, liposuction is often the answer. Plus, once you take out the fat body cells they are gone for good. They will not come back to hunt you.

New Cosmetic Surgery Techniques

With the new cometic surgery liposuction techniques, you are usually only placed under a local anesthetic; the good news is that lasers are now used in place of traditional means to melt your fat away. With this method you are only having a tube the size of a millimeter total diameter placed into a small incision in your body and it prevents you from having any serious trauma and is so small, that there is no need for many stitches. This makes this new method considerably safer than the older versions of similar procedures.

The fat is suctioned and drawn out from very small incisions in your body. Sometimes during this process you might end up having a little bit seeps back inside, but often that is not the case. If it does, your body will normally expel it within a few days. Many will find it comforting that they are conscious during this process especially since the absence of general anesthetic allows patients to talk to the doctor and report anything strange their body might be feeling.

Recovery from Cosmetic Surgery Liposuction

During the recovery process from the newer form of Liposuction, you will find it is only a fraction of what you used to expect. While in previous cases it took up to six weeks to fully recover, you can now be back on your feet in one or two days tops. From there, you wear a compression bandage for a couple of weeks and you are fully healed. There is little to no down time.

Advantages To New Cosmetic Surgery Lipo

With the newest forms of Liposuction available, you will begin to notice that there are far fewer traumas that will happen to the body, thanks to this safer techniques. This is largely due to the fact that the newer method focuses on taking out liquidized fat and steps away from breaking down fat solids and tearing them from the body. As solid fat was suctioned out, there was potential for flesh and muscle to become seriously damaged as well.

Another great advantage of the laser method that melts the fat before removing it is the fact that your skin will not become as loose and flabby as a result of the amounts of fat being removed from your body. During most of the new cosmetic liposuction methods, the skin tends to tighten more naturally after the fat is melted. Usually a maximum of eight pounds of melted fat will be removed during a single session, you will find that your body can become well sculpted even after a single session.

Unlike other methods the fat cells are gone for good. There is no worry about gaining that weight back in a short period of time. With permanent results to enjoy and minimal serious side effects ever reported this could be the perfect surgery for you.

Newer versions of this laser liposuction that delivers hi def sculpting has been created as well over the recent years. One of the main companies that make the various systems available called Cynosure has delivered the revolutionary SmartLipo Triplex.

This new system went through extensive amounts of research and was found to be more than twenty times more effective in comparison to similar modalities. In fact, one of the popular sister products of this new device the SmartLipo MPX is already being declared outdated even though it too has delivered safe and reliable treatment with near perfect results.

What is interesting about this machine is the results patients will see are instant. There are no long waits for results anymore. Instead of using just one wavelength the new technology expands with multiple wavelengths. This method breaks down fat deposits that previous methods failed to get ride of, and allow faster tightening of the skin at the same time.

The benefit for the plastic surgeon is they can remove a greater quantity of fat in far less time, and actually take the time to sculpt the patient in front of them. Before with old cosmetic liposuction techniques you pulled out whatever amount of fat you could from certain areas, but this machine allows the surgeon to direct where they want to pull the fat from.

The treatment lasts a mere fraction of the original amount of time and there is little to no pain or discomfort they have to feel during the surgery lipo suction. Plus the technology is so advanced it will not heat up too much, rather it monitors the skin temperature and will adjust its heat if it begins to get too hot thus preventing burning.

The newer technology has been perfected by the top plastic surgeons as they worked closely with the manufacturers to make sure it remained safe and effective. It also can be attributed to why the system remains safe and effective for helping these trained surgeons provide a quick and quality cosmetic liposuction experience for their patients with minimal concern.

The Standard Process for Liposuction

Although we’ve covered some information about the newest in technology, you might be wondering more about the process of cosmetic Liposuction in a bit more detail. Briefly, we will cover the process so you can understand what might occur during your surgery.

Anesthesia

There are two forms of anesthesia that might be used during this process. Newer surgeries focus on localized anesthesia, this means you will be conscious during your surgery but there will be no pain or discomfort experienced as that portion of the body will be numb. If you are too fidgety or frightened the surgeon may choose to place you under a general anesthesia as well.

Procedure:

While most people think that the actual process of cosmetic liposuction is to simply vacuum out as much fat as you can and send you on your way, well it is more complex than that. In fact there are many steps involved and there are some basic steps you need to take to ensure the process is safe and effective.

Colombia is nothing like the movies

Incisions:

Shortly after administering of the desired anesthesia, your physician may choose to inject the area with additional fluids. During this time they will make a few tiny incisions in the area of the body where you decide to have the body fat removed. The size of these incisions will be no more than one third of an inch.

Removing the Fat:

During this portion of the process a cannula or the thin vacuum tube will be placed in the incisions that have been made. Working the tube back and forth the goal will be to break down the fat in these areas and break down the deposits. Then using an attached syringe the fluids will be removed as well. Since you will be losing vital fluids, your body will be hooked up to an IV to help you keep fluids in your body.

Stitches after Liposuction Procedure

It varies on the physician you select, some will place a couple of stitches into the incisions made on your body. Be sure to follow the care instructions that any physician provides in regards to after treatment care to prevent infections. Normally you will have a compression bandage placed on you, follow the instructions closely when removing and cleaning this bandage.

Hi, I had a tummy tuck and breast lift on September 2010. I had it done in Bolivia through MakeoverTravel.com …VERY GOOD CHOICE!

I have 3 kids but I finally had my last almost 2 years. I am thrilled that I did it, the results are fantastic and I looooooooove it.

I am not going to lie to you when I came out of surgery I was in severe pain and needed my Vikiden right away. The feeling is not the same like a c section it is a feeling of tightness and a lot of soreness but it hurt like hell. They took off 4.5 pounds which is alot to me because I am not a big girl but I know after all the kids "I believe it."

I am 7 months into it and I can my results are amazing I see my muscle definition in my stomach that I have not seen since I was 16 years old. Now I can wear anything I want without the folds of my extra skin and fat. The scar is not bad neither and not that devastating to me after having the c section scar but I can't help looking in the mirror every time I pass by because I still can't believe it.

To those who is deciding to do it I say go for it but do your research as far as doctor's and everyone results are totally different,, MakeoverTravel in Bolivia was an excellent choice, the price I paid for my surgery is so affordable compared to the US prices.. $7,800 for a breast lift with implants + a full body liposuction (arms, abs, abs flanks, inner thigh, back) + a full tummy tuck + 2 weeks in a 4**** + complete blood test before surgery + transportation + bilingual assistant anytime I need,, it’s just a GIFT!

Follow direction and stay healthy is the key.

Good Luck
