what is liposuction
Tumescent lipo
Liposuction is the medical suctioning or removing fat cells from certain areas of the body. Most common are the abdomen, butts, hips and upper legs. For breaking down fat, the hollow cannula should be used. To remove fat, the cannula must be connected to an electrical vacuum cleaner.
Ultrasonic assisted liposuction makes use of both ultrasonic power and tumescent liquid to heat and melt the subcutaneous fat. This allows for fat to be removed much faster. UAL may require more incisions but may leave less scarring. However, a larger size cut can help to reduce fat faster. UAL is particularly beneficial in helping to remove fat from the upper abdomen and sides as well as the neck.
