Liposculpture is the modernized version of liposuction. These two terminologies are widely used today as they are quite synonymous for most people who have undergone the procedure. Precision fat removal is the basic purpose of liposculpture and it is the cutting-edge advantage of this procedure.
Anesthesia and blood staunching solution are injected locally on the area to be treated. After a while the fat become swollen and fat cells are weakened. Using a fine needle, the fat is then drained off.
Removal of superficial and deep fats can be achieved using the liposculpture technique. The patient may also be asked to adjust his/her position to allow the plastic surgeon to evaluate the area that is being treated.
Vibro liposculpture employs the use of lymph drainage- a technique that uses massaging of the area to activate fluid circulation. Local or general anesthesia may be used and the procedure can take up to 3 hours, depending on the areas to be treated.
Lymph drainage is also recommendable after the liposculpture to hasten the fluid drainage and to reduce the swelling of the treated area.
Recovery time for Liposculpture
Liposculpture is often an out-patient procedure. You may rest in the hospital or clinic for a few hours after the procedure and go home afterwards.
Fluids from the liposculpture incisions are released within hours after the procedure. In a few hours, the fluid will impede.
A lipopanty is required to be worn within 4 to 6 weeks to prevent swelling. You may remove the lipopanty if you will take a shower. Taking a shower is recommended 24 hours after the liposculpture.
A week after the liposculpture, you may resume your normal daily activities. However, you should avoid strenuous activities, lifting weights or heavy loads.
Swelling will disappear in about 12 weeks after the liposculpture. Make sure that you wear the lipopanty and use the lymph drainage even after the procedure to hasten the healing process.
You can expect minimal scarring during the first few months, but eventually they will disappear over time. The result of a liposculpture can be permanent provided that you maintain a healthy lifestyle and eating habits.
Liposculpture is a technique that contours the body. It is not a total weight loss procedure as many others believe. Weight loss should be done first before liposculpture to achieve more realistic results.
