Liposuction

There are several more recent methods which may be performed along with traditional liposuction, including Power-Assisted Liposuction, Tumescent Liposuction, and Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction. Power-Assisted Liposuction, also known as PAL, has done away with the manually manipulated cannula, using instead a reciprocating cannula. Tumescent Liposuction includes the use of a large volume of fluid containing a local anesthetic and epinephrine which is injected into the fatty tissue, enabling it to become swollen and firm before being removed. The technique known as Ultrasound-Assisted Liposuction (UAL) involves the liquification of fat prior to its removal using ultrasound energy.

This procedure can occur in a hospital, surgical center, or office while the patient is under either local anesthesia, local anesthesia combined with sedation, regional anesthesia, or general anesthesia. The traditional form of liposuction begins with small incisions being made on the skin of the areas being treated. A narrow, blunt-tipped tube called a cannula is then inserted into the incisions. This instrument is then pushed back and forth beneath the skin in order to target and disrupt specific fat deposits which are then suctioned out.

After the procedure, patients are typically able to return to their normal activities when they feel comfortable doing so, which can be anywhere from several days to several weeks, though more strenuous activities will need to be postponed for at least a month. The risks associated with liposuction may include the following: allergic drug reactions, anesthesia reactions, aspiration pneumonia, brain damage, blood clots, cardiac arrest, excessive blood loss, excessive fluid loss, focal skin necrosis (skin death), hematomas, hypothermia, infection, perforation injury, permanent nerve damage, permanent pigment (color) changes, post-liposuction syncope (fainting), pulmonary edema, pulmonary embolism, scarring, seizure, seromas, uneven skin, and unfavorable drug reactions.

Liposuction, known also as lipoplasty or suction lipectomy, is the surgical procedure intended to sculpt or recontour one or more parts of the body through the removal of localized fat deposits. Commonly treated areas of the body include the abdomen, back, buttocks, cheeks, chin, hips, knees, neck, thighs and upper arms.
