More accurate and professional techniques such as Laser technology, Vaser technology, ultrasound, and four-dimensional body sculpting are highly recommended by professionals.
Liposuction using ultrasound technology
Ultrasound technology is one of the most used liposuction techniques in the last years due to its effectiveness in liposuction especially in the chest and back areas.
Ultrasound body sculpting depends on ultrasound energy delivered by the Vaser device, as this technique passes through the following steps to obtain the most accurate results:
- An allergy test is performed for the anesthetic material.
- The patient is anesthetized using local anesthesia, which is a mixture of saline and anesthetic solution to separate the tissues and fat cells from the surrounding blood capillaries.
- The small surgical incision is performed in the skin folds of the area where liposuction will be performed.
- Shine the ultrasound device and move the device wand back and forth several times to break the lipid bonds.
- Using a transparent medical cannula to withdraw the melted fat.
Liposuction using laser technique steps
Lasers have many uses in the medical field, especially cosmetic medicine, where up to 90% of cosmetic operations depend primarily on laser technology. In the following, Dr. Yasser Badi explains the steps of using lasers to break down fat from the body:
- Anesthetize the patient.
- Sterilization of the operation site.
- Make a surgical incision in the folds of the skin.
- Using high-frequency laser beams and focusing them on the area where liposuction is performed.
- Temperature control.
- When the subcutaneous fat is melted, it is suctioned out through a fine medical tube to be removed outside the body.
- Close the incision using a transparent and delicate medical thread.
