What does the liposuction procedure involve?

There are a number of liposuction procedures that are conducted after administering local anesthesia to a specific area of the body. However, depending on the procedure, your specialist surgeon might decide to give you general anesthesia. This will keep you sedated throughout the whole process and calm down your nerves. The liposuction procedure can continue for quite a few hours depending on the amount of fat that needs to be removed from the body.

There are various types of liposuction techniques. These are listed in detail below:

Ultrasound-assisted liposuction (UAL): In this technique the cell walls of fat under the skin of a particular area in your body are ruptured. This enables the fat to turn into liquid so that it can easily be pulled out using a suction method.
Tumescent Liposuction: This is one of the most popular liposuction techniques. In this process, your surgeon will use a solution of saline (sterile salt water), lidocaine (anesthetic) and epinephrine (a drug that constricts the blood vessels) to be injected in the areas from where fat removal needs to be done. The fat is then suctioned out easily without much discomfort or blood loss.
Laser-assisted liposuction: In this liposuction procedure, a laser is used to focus on the fat and produce enough energy to liquefy it. The next step is to suction it out from thebody easily.
