Choosing A Liposuction Procedure

Liposuction has come a long way over the years, and today the procedure can be so fast and simple that there is almost no scarring or tissue damage and very little recovery time. Choosing the right procedure for you depends on which areas of the body you wish to have treated, as certain procedures work in different ways.

Vaser Lipo Liposuction and Smartlipo are the most up-to-date procedures available, and promise satisfactory results with very little side effect. Although the procedures are very similar, they are administered differently, which is why they are suitable for different types of treatment.

Vaser Lipo Liposuction is generally used to treat the waistline, hips and thighs, lower back, backs of arms, jaw line and chest. The treatment works by infusing the fatty area with tumescent fluid, which then emulsifies the fatty deposits. The fluid is then suctioned out neatly, causing very little trauma to the surrounding tissues and blood cells. As a result the recovery time is minimal, and you will experience very little in the way of scars or bruising.

Smartlipo is extremely similar and is used to treat the same areas, however the administration is different. A fibre optic cable is inserted via a canulla. Laser energy then melts the fat deposits before they are suctioned out. One of the main advantages of Smartlipo is that the skin retracts and tightens after treatment, and you will not be left with any sagging. For this reason Smartlipo is better for treating larger areas than Vaser Lipo Liposuction

Whatever your preferred treatment, both Vaser and Smartlipo are leagues above traditional liposuction. It is also a lot more cost effective as it is administered under local anaesthetic and requires no overnight hospital stay.
