Body Contouring Procedures: Liposuction And Tummy Tuck Surgery

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

Liposuction is a procedure that removes localized areas of fat in the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, knees, calves, arms, cheeks and neck. Liposuction patients are usually in search of improved profiles in their numbers inside and outside of the garment. Liposuction is performed with a thin metal tube called a cannula is inserted under the skin to suck the fat away from the irregular contours, especially in the body. Liposuction can be done only with the cannula alone, however, often a solution is injected under the skin into the fat layer. This minimizes bruising, bleeding and postoperative discomfort that may be associated with liposuction. This is called the tumescent liposuction technique, but the volume of solution injected determines whether or tumescent liposuction “technique superwet. The new development in liposuction is ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL), which uses ‘injection of a solution, but also uses a cannula that emits ultrasonic waves to “melt the fat. It is important to recognize that liposuction is not a method of weight loss, but it is primarily intended for patients who are at or near their ideal weight. Abdominoplasty or Tummy Tuck is designed to correct a protruding abdomen resulting from weak abdominal muscles and excess skin, usually due to multiple pregnancies, prior surgery, or weight gain. Normally, the abdominal muscles are stretched and do not respond well to exercise. The goal of abdominoplasty is a more narrow flatness. Abdominoplasty is not a substitute for weight loss. Patients in a plan of weight loss should be close to your target weight before surgery. The procedure is usually performed by a U-shaped incision below one hipbone in the pubic area to the other hip bone. Loose stretched tight muscles with stitches and excess skin and fat are removed. Mini-abdominoplasty tightens the abdominal wall, which reduces scarring, while extended abdominoplasty tightens the abdomen and the parties resulting long scar that extends around the sides of the lower back. Although the payback period is longer than other cosmetic procedures, the rewards are great for a patient already troubled by a protruding abdomen. Considering cosmetic surgery is an exciting time.
