Surgical Procedure
Examination and Anesthesia
For liposuction, first checks the degree of fat accumulation in excess of the desired area in a standing position.
Check the Body Composition Analysis.
Sometimes, Measure the thickness of the fat layer with an ultrasonic waves and estimate the amount that can be removed after the procedure.
Tumescent solution injection and Accusculp Laser
After anesthesia, pierce the area close to the surgical site and inject a tumescent solution to help dissolve fat. Use internal lipolysis laser to help a skin tightening evenly over the area to be inhaled.
Then use a PAL to inhale fat in the area you want.
Liposuction
Once the fat cells are melted, inhalation starts using a power cannula liposuction device. It usually removes deep fat.
Using no machine, hand-method is very advantageous for inhaling the upper side fat.
Areas that do not come out well can also be delicated & effectively removed.
