Liposuction can be performed by different methods and allows the removal of fat on the patient's body most effectively if the doctor knows how to combine methods depending on the indications and characteristics of a particular patient. The purpose of the most modern methods of liposuction today is not only the removal of fat, but also the tightening of tissues in the area of influence, and the minimum use of anesthesia, and the reduction of postoperative rehabilitation. None of the methods of fat removal currently meets all the requirements, and therefore further research is needed in the field of their compatibility.
Fat Removal - Different Methods of Liposuction
Traditionally, naturally formed fat deposits, which significantly distort the contours of the body, are considered indications for liposuction.
Ultrasonic liposuction uses ultrasound energy to stimulate lipolysis, after which the split fat tissue is removed using a vacuum aspirator.
Vibroliposuction destroys adipose tissue due to a special cannula that makes about 4 thousand vibrations per minute.
Laser liposuction stimulates the destruction of adipose tissue using waves of different wavelengths. A particular advantage of this method of fat removal is the reduction of blood loss and minimization of bruising.
Water-jet liposuction is considered a gentler method of fat removal, since the adipose tissue is broken up by a jet of liquid, and neither the adjacent vessels nor tissues are affected.
Radiofrequency liposuction destroys fat deposits with the help of radiofrequency energy, and at the same time stimulates the synthesis of new collagen fibers, tightening the skin in the affected area.
Fat Removal: Which Methods Can Be Combined
Each of the liposuction methods has its advantages and disadvantages, and therefore, for the best effect, the doctor must be able to use different methods and know the possibilities of combining them.
Thus, for example, many methods of fat removal are fraught with the risk of burns, while ultrasonic and radiofrequency liposuction allow the surgeon to reduce physical costs, with laser liposuction, small blood vessels are coagulated, and thanks to radiofrequency liposuction, the skin is well tightened.
In addition to traditional invasive liposuction techniques, machine-assisted fat removal techniques can be used to contour the patient's body. We are talking about cryolipolysis, RF technologies - they allow you to do without subsequent surgical excision of the skin, since they have a good tightening effect.
Thus, each of the fat removal methods has its own indications for use, each gives its own result, and therefore their competent combination gives the patient the best result of liposuction.
