EXPLORING DIFFERENT LIPOSUCTION TYPES AND ITS DIFFERENCES

There are multiple types of liposuction. Each have different ways and processes to execute yet all are beneficial. Maxim Cosmetic Surgery is here to help you for a way better understanding to formulate a good decision regarding to what type is the best pick and is really harmless to your body.

SUCTION-ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION

This procedure is known as the oldest and the most common liposuction type. It is being executed through forming a small surgical cut also known as incision over the target area of the body. Therefore, the cannula, a well-known thin tube, is being inserted into the cut to suction out the stubborn fats. This fat-removal process can be normally done in larger sections of the body. It may not be accurate in smaller areas such as the chin.

TUMESCENT LIPOSUCTION

Tumescent means “becoming swollen”. This type of surgery is way similar to the previous and traditional type as it is also using cannula to suction the identified fats. However, it uses epinephrine and lidocaine to make the fats swell and be easier to identify. Unlike the first type, this process does not show much bleeding and bruising.

ULTRASOUND-ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION

This type of liposuction surgery uses high-frequency sound waves directed to the area under surgery to break cell walls and liquefy fats so it can be easily removed. This surgery is used because other traditional liposuction may be difficult to apply in some areas especially the sections with chunkier and tougher fats. Unlike the other type, this surgery has lesser possibilities to bleed and bruise thus there is a higher chance of forming burns.

LASER-ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION

This type is quite similar to the previous ultrasound-assisted liposuction only that it uses lasers to burn fats into an oily substance suctioned by the cannula. The laser fiber being used is tiny enough as well as the cannula size. However, this surgery only requires a very small cut that may heal quickly without much visible trace or scar.
