Liposuction removes fat from your body using suction. In traditional liposuction, small, thin blunt-tipped tubes (cannula) are inserted through tiny incisions in the skin. Fat is suctioned out through these tubes as the doctor moves the tubes around under the skin to target specific fat deposits.
In recent years, improved techniques have made liposuction safer, easier, and less painful. These newer techniques include:
Tumescent liposuction Orange County. This is considered the safest and most effective liposuction technique, with the quickest recovery time. First, you are given a local anesthetic to numb the area of your body where the tube will be inserted. Next, a large amount of an anesthetic solution containing lidocaine and epinephrine is injected into the fatty tissue before traditional liposuction is performed. The solution makes the fat expand and become firmer, which allows the tubes to move more smoothly under the skin. It also causes the blood vessels to temporarily shrink (vasoconstriction), which greatly reduces blood loss during the procedure. With the large volume of anesthetic solution injected, tumescent liposuction does not require general anesthesia (which makes you sleep through the procedure) and thus does not carry some of the risks of traditional liposuction. It also reduces bruising, swelling, and pain after the procedure.
Ultrasound-assisted (ultrasonic) liposuction Orange County This newer technique uses energy created by ultrasound to liquefy the fat before it is removed. The tubes move more smoothly under the skin once the fat has been liquefied, so this technique may be particularly helpful in areas where the fat is very firm or fibrous - such as the sides, the back, male breasts, and the area around the navel - or when removing large amounts of fat. Ultrasound-assisted liposuction may take 2 to 4 hours longer than traditional or tumescent liposuction.
Orange County Liposuction is usually done as an outpatient procedure in a properly equipped doctor's office, ambulatory surgery center, or hospital. In general, it does not require an overnight hospital stay unless a large volume of fat is being removed. However, liposuction of large areas of the body should only be done in a hospital or licensed surgical center.2Local anesthesia is used in most cases, and you may or may not be given a sedative to help you relax. If traditional (nontumescent) liposuction is being done, or if a large area or volume of fat is being treated, general anesthesia or deep sedation with a local anesthetic may be used.
