Bid Adieu to Fat with Liposuction

Every year in the form of liposuction, thousands of people around the world undergo cosmetic surgery. Whether it is to remove a double chin or to remove sagging skin from their stomach, these types of procedures have given them more confidence and it has enabled them to feel better about themselves. In short, it has changed people’s lives. While it is still a plastic surgery that carries risks, costs and serious considerations, it can be a simple procedure in some cases.


An n experienced plastic surgeon in Sydney is required for this kind of surgical procedure, who will focus on certain areas of the body, such as the abdomen or buttocks by making use of a medical tool called a canula to break up fat deposits. With a suction device called an aspirator, fat is then sucked out. Sometimes the procedure is done deeper and sometimes just underneath the skin. To produce a symmetrical and smooth finished product, a plastic surgeon will sculpt and massage the areas where fat has been removed.


Under a general anesthetic, patients undergo lipo surgery Sydney, as for a more in depth surgical procedure. With the introduction of laser liposuction, local anesthetic has recently become more popular, as it is less traumatic and painful. Sydney Laser liposuction is ideal for treating localized fat deposits and skin laxity on various areas of the body. It involves the use of a laser attached to the canula. The laser breaks down the fat, which can be removed with the use of an aspirator or can be absorbed by the body naturally.


A plastic surgeon will make incisions in one or more areas that are to be worked on, once the patient is anesthetized. This incision is very small and only slightly larger than the cannula in most cases. Incisions may be a bit longer in UV assisted lipo. The cannula will be inserted under the skin by the cosmetic Dr and then sucking of fat out using the aspirator will begin. This procedure can last for a couple of hours or more, depending on how many areas the patient is having liposuction surgery performed on and what technique is used. The plastic surgery doctor may split up into two separate surgeries rather than doing it all at once, if someone wants legs, arms, face, back and abdomen surgery done.


There are risks associated with lipo such as a bad reaction to anesthetic or surgical complications. Cost should not be on the mind, when consumers are considering an elective cosmetic surgery such as this. A cosmetic doctor can easily make life-threatening mistakes, if he is not well trained or has not performed the procedure. Liposuction Sydney has truly been a life changing step for those who opted for it.
