Liposuction, also called lipo, is a kind of cosmetic surgery which breaks up and "sucks" fat from different possible area of the body, most commonly the abdomen, thighs, buttocks, neck, chin, upper and backs of the arms, calves, and back. The fat is separated through a empty instrument - a cannula - which is inserted under the skin. A powerful, high-pressure vacuum is applied to the cannula. for more details please visit the site http://weightlosssurgery.in/index.html
2. INTRODUCTION
Liposuction
is a surgical procedure
that uses cannulas and vacuum to
remove fat deposits underneath the
skin. These fat deposits are usually
present at abdomen, arms, back,
breasts, buttocks, thighs and legs.
3. TYPE OF LIPOSUCTION SURGERY
Types of Liposuction
Liposuction
procedures vary
depending on:
the
location of fat to be removed.
the type of fat.
the goals of the patient.
plastic
surgeon's recommendation.
5. Laser-Assisted Liposuction
In
this laser-assisted technique, fat
melts using a concentrated laser
beam light which starts to break
down your fatty tissue with less
inflammation, less bruising and less
bleeding
6. Tumescent Liposuction
This
technique involves
subcutaneous infiltration of large
volumes of crystalloid fluid called
Klein’s solution, which contains low
concentrations of lignocaine and
epinephrine, followed by suctionassisted aspiration of fat by using
small aspiration cannulae called
microcannuale
7. Suction assisted liposuction
The
traditional liposuction method in
which the surgeon inserts a cannula
(suction probe) through a small incision.
The surgeon pushes and pulls the
cannula through the fat layer to break
up the fat tissue and a suction pump
draws the fatty tissue out of the body..
8. Power Assisted Liposuction
A
procedure that is similar to
suction-assisted liposuction, except
that it is performed with a
specialized cannula that uses
mechanized movements to help
break up the fat tissue
9. Ultrasonic Assisted Liposuction
Ultrasonic
liposuction is a technique
of liposuction where the fatty tissue
is removed with the help of
Ultrasonic sound waves which are
beyond the range of human hearing.
This increases safety. The ultrasonic
energy is targeted to fat cells and
creates less damage to other tissues
such as nerves, blood vessels and
muscles.
10. Water-assisted liposuction
The
Body-Jet device uses a gentle,
pulsating spray of fluid to dislodge
fat without the brute force used in
traditional liposuction procedures.
Fat is loosened from connective
tissues and at the same time
removed using just a gentle fluid
spray.
