admin We all know how important it is to look good and feel good. Magazines and TV programs offer a number of new diets and ways to lose weight and look great. However, what happens if you’re one of those people who commit to great new diets, follow their exercise plan and are still left with areas of fat which just won’t shift? In those situations, liposuction is a great way to get rid of fatty tissue from a specific area of your body – quickly and easily.
The surgery itself is fairly simple and straightforward and tends to begin with the anesthetic. Liposuction can be performed under either local or general anesthetic depending on the patient and the areas of fatty tissue which need to be removed. A local anesthetic simply numbs the area being worked on while a general anesthetic will render you unconscious during the procedure. The anesthetic will be administered either through an injection or gas inhalation if a general anesthetic is used. You will feel little or no pain.
If you’ve had a general anesthetic, you’ll start to feel sleepy. If you only had a local anesthetic you’ll feel numb in the area where you’ve had the anesthetic. Sometimes the surgeon will need to inject some fluids before making the miniature incisions in the skin around the fatty area. The incisions tend to be less than a third of an inch in size, so you won’t have any scars or unsightly marks to bear following the operation. The healing process is very fast, too, and you’ll be amazed at the results.
The liposuction procedure will often remove blood and other bodily fluids so you’ll be hooked up to an intravenous drip before the procedure begins. The surgeon inserts a small, thin vacuum tube (cannula) through the incision and into the deep fat layer before he begins to manipulate the fat layer, breaking it up into small particles. He will then use the vacuum tube to remove the fat along with any other particles or fluids around the area. An extra syringe may be required to remove all of the cells.
Following the removal of the fatty cells, most surgeons will use stitches to close the incisions. Don’t be alarmed if they don’t, though. Some doctors prefer to leave the incisions open fluid can drain more easily, and bruising and swelling will be reduced. You will not have any problems, as the tiny incisions. The whole process is painless and very fast and easy and you hardly have any questions. Enjoy your new body!
