I had my procedure performed by Los Angeles Cosmetic Surgeon Vishal Kapoor, MD at his Beverly Hills Plastic Surgery Center. Los Angeles Tumescent Liposuction is similar to fluid injection liposuction surgery except that a much larger amount of medicated solution is injected into the fatty tissue, typically two to three times more than the amount of fat being removed. Tumescent lipo causes the fat to swell before being removed. ‘ Fluid injection is a newer Los Angeles liposuction surgery technique in which a medicated solution containing lidocaine, epinephrine, and an intravenous salt solution is first injected into the fatty areas to facilitate the fat removal. The fat is then removed with traditional liposuction surgery techniques. The benefits of fluid injection Los Angeles Liposuction Surgery include reduced blood loss during Los Angeles Liposuction Surgery and reduced bruising for Liposuction After Surgery. The super-wet plastic surgery liposuction technique is yet another technique in which fluid is first injected into the fatty tissue. In this case, the amount of fluid injected is just about equal to the amount of fat being removed. Beverly Hills Ultrasound-assisted lipoplasty (UAL) is performed with the use of a special cannula that facilitates fat removal. This cannula delivers ultrasonic energy to the fatty tissue which transforms the fat cells …
PRWEB) May 20, 2006 — Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon Dr. Michael Law offers the following tips on what to look for when considering Liposuction.
Liposuction is a body contouring operation that requires not only an artist’s eye, but also the insight to determine which patients are likely to benefit from the procedure (and which specific areas of a patient’s body are appropriate for liposuction). When artfully and appropriately applied, liposuction can produce dramatic contour improvements. As with all plastic surgery, the goal should be to produce a natural contour.
Aren’t there different kinds of liposuction?
Liposuction is traditionally performed using vacuum suction. Recently, new technologies have become available in an attempt to improve the efficiency of fat removal. ‘Power-assisted’ liposuction uses an energy source applied to the liposuction apparatus to create vibrations that enhance the efficiency of fat removal.
‘Ultrasonic’ liposuction, uses ultrasonic energy emitted by the liposuction apparatus to emulsify (liquefy) fat and enhance its removal. A consequence of ultrasonic energy emission is heating of tissues, which can lead to burns and other complications if a number of precautions are not carefully followed. This has led some plastic surgeons to not adopt or to abandon ultrasonic liposuction.
Is ‘tumescent’ liposuction better?
Well, yes, but tumescent technique is used for all liposuction, and has been for a quite some time. ‘Tumescent technique’ essentially means that a saline solution containing epinephrine is injected into the areas to be suctioned, so that blood vessels in the fat constrict and bleeding is minimized.
Choose your surgeon carefully
Liposuction is the most commonly performed surgical procedure each year in the United States. Here’s a statistic that many may not have heard: the majority of physicians performing liposuction in the United States are not plastic surgeons; in fact, many do not have any formal surgical training whatsoever. It seems hard to believe, but many physicians performing liposuction have had no more training in liposuction than a ‘weekend course’. One way to determine whether or not a physician has had appropriate training in a particular surgery is to confirm that they have hospital privileges for that procedure.
Perhaps some practitioners view liposuction as a ‘simple’ surgery, since it does not involve making large incisions, and it requires little, if any, suturing. Nothing could be further form the truth.
Dr. Michael Law believes that Liposuction is a very challenging operation that requires careful planning and preparation, and a great deal of care and finesse when it is performed. It requires a three-dimensional understanding of the layers of human anatomy, an understanding that is second nature to a surgeon alone. I think that it is often an inadequate understanding of anatomy (and, perhaps, of the body’s response to surgery) that leads to poor results in liposuction which are sometimes seen.

about 4 years ago I decided to have a liposuction on my bottom & thighs and the results were horrible especially after I gained weight during pregnancy as the fat was re-allocated in the wrong spots of my thighs causing huge mass of cellulite around my knees. I officially have the ugliest legs ever and this is literally destroying me… what can I do to fix this? I don’t want to go legal I just want to have nice legs like everybody else. Please help me.
