Abdominal liposuction

Can you lose weight with liposuction?

It is a common mistake to believe that liposuction is for weight loss! The patient asks about the number of kilograms he will lose! Therefore, liposuction is not for weight loss, but for sculpting the body and shaping the figure until it returns to its natural shape before fat deposition and sagging.

When did liposuction start?

It started in France in the early 1980s and has evolved in fat dissolving methods, anesthesia, the type of suction machines, and how to break down fat either by extracting it with negative pressure, vibration waves, ultrasonic crushing, or using laser (now less used), which has reduced side effects.

Benefits of abdominal liposuction:

  • Improving body shape: Abdominal liposuction helps reduce sagging and accumulated fat, which enhances body symmetry.
  • Increased self-confidence: After the procedure, many people feel an improvement in their appearance and body shape, which leads to increased self-confidence.
  • Fast Results: Liposuction results can be seen within a short period of time compared to exercise or diet.
  • Health Boost: Getting rid of accumulated fat can reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes.

Disadvantages of abdominal liposuction:

Despite the many benefits of liposuction, it may have some harms and complications, such as:

  • Anesthesia: Exposure to general anesthesia may be dangerous for some people.
  • Infection: Although rare, some infection may occur in the wound areas.
  • Bruising and swelling: Bruising and swelling may appear after the procedure and last for several days or weeks.
  • Uneven surface: In some cases, lumps or unevenness may appear on the skin

Abdominal liposuction before and after:

The results of tummy tuck are very clear before and after the procedure. Post-operative photos show a significant reduction in abdominal circumference and an improvement in its overall appearance. Before the procedure, the abdominal area is often full of fat, while after the procedure it appears flatter and more symmetrical.

Abdominal liposuction without surgery:

Non-surgical liposuction is a non-surgical option that includes techniques that may help reduce fat and slim the abdominal area. The most popular of these techniques are:

  • Cryolipolysis: Fat cells are cooled until they die and gradually break down and are eliminated by the body.
  • Laser devices: Lasers are used to heat and break down fat without the need for surgical incisions.
  • Radio Frequency: Radio waves are used to heat and break down fat, making it easier to get rid of.

But, are these techniques really effective?
The truth is that there is no scientifically proven way to completely and permanently remove fat from a specific area without surgery. The disadvantages of these techniques include:
Less noticeable results: You may not achieve the same results as surgery.
Requires several sessions: to obtain noticeable results.
High cost: It may be expensive compared to other methods.

Abdominal liposuction device:

Abdominal liposuction is used in liposuction surgeries to remove fat safely and quickly. The device is available in different types and technologies such as Vaser and ultrasound, all of which aim to effectively suction fat and minimize side effects.

How to remove belly fat:

Abdominal liposuction is usually done using a thin tube that is inserted under the skin, and then the fat is sucked out using a special pump or syringe. There are several techniques used for this purpose, including Vaser and ultrasound, which help break down the fat in a more effective way.

Vaser liposuction of the abdomen:

Vaser is a modern technology that uses ultrasound waves to break down fat before suctioning it out. It is considered one of the most accurate methods of body sculpting, as it targets fat without affecting the surrounding tissues.

Steps of the Vaser liposuction procedure:

The Vaser liposuction procedure goes through several precise steps to ensure achieving the desired results with minimal complications. Here are the detailed steps:

  1. Anesthesia: General or spinal anesthesia is used depending on the need of the case.
  2. Incisions: Small incisions are made in the skin to allow the tube to be inserted.
  3. Insertion of the Vaser tube: The tube emits ultrasonic waves that dissolve the fat cells.
  4. Liposuction: After breaking down the fat, it is suctioned out using a special suction device.
  5. Closure of incisions: Small incisions are closed with fine cosmetic sutures.

Preparation before the operation:

Before performing liposuction, several steps must be followed to ensure the success of the operation and avoid complications:

  • Analysis and examinations : Conducting the required medical examinations to ensure the patient’s readiness for the operation.
  • Stop smoking : It is recommended to stop smoking well before the operation.
  • Stop taking some medications : Some medications such as aspirin or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should be stopped.
  • Fasting : Fasting may be required for 6-8 hours before the procedure if it will be performed using general anesthesia.
