This common liposuction method injects a medicated saline solution into fat, reducing bleeding and making fat removal easier.
UAL uses ultrasonic energy to liquefy fat before suction. VASER, a specific UAL type, enhances fat breakdown for efficient removal.
The traditional method of liposuction, where a vacuum suction device is used to remove fat after making small incisions in the skin.
This technique uses a vibrating cannula to break fat cells, easing removal while minimizing tissue trauma and speeding up recovery.
Laser energy liquefies fat cells, which are removed via a small incision, also tightening the skin for fat removal and rejuvenation benefits.
Uneven fat removal, poor skin elasticity, and scarring cause bumpy, wavy, or sagging skin, possibly permanent.
Temporary fluid pockets (seromas) can form under the skin and may require drainage through a needle.
Treated areas may experience temporary or, in some cases, permanent numbness or nerve irritation.
Although rare, infections can occur at the site of the procedure and can sometimes become severe or life-threatening.
The liposuction tube, if not handled carefully, can puncture an internal organ, requiring emergency surgery.
